Frequently Asked Questions

The best treatment depends on your skin type and pigmentation concerns. Laser treatments and chemical peels are highly effective for most cases, but a consultation will determine the right approach for you.

Many treatments can be tailored to suit different skin types. It's essential to consult with a professional to choose the safest option for your skin. Sun damage significantly impacts skin pigmentation, leading to conditions like hyperpigmentation, where darkened patches appear due to excess melanin production. We have treatments for all sources of pigmentation.

Results vary by treatment type, but noticeable improvements often occur within 2-4 weeks after starting treatment. Multiple sessions might be necessary to achieve the best results.

Some treatments, like chemical peels and lasers, are better suited to minimize sun exposure risks in cooler months. However, other options, such as HydraFacial® or topical treatments, can be safely performed year-round.

Most treatments are minimally uncomfortable, with sensations like mild tingling or heat. Numbing agents can be used for added comfort if needed.

While many treatments deliver long-lasting results, maintenance, and proper skin care are essential to prevent a recurrence, especially with ongoing sun exposure. Following a professional's recommendations ensures the best outcomes over time.
