Hyperpigmentation Treatment

WHAT IS HYPERPIGMENTATION TREATMENT?

Many people have hyperpigmentation, which is a widespread dermatological concern involving dark-colored patches that occur on the surface of the skin. These pigmented spots may pop up in any location on the face, neck, or body and can vary in shape and size. Skin discoloration can also be due to acne marks or sun spots from conditions, such as melasma, psoriasis, and eczema. Our team addresses hyperpigmentation conditions on a routine basis at Beauty Medica using the Harmony XL PRO laser from Alma. Providing skin rejuvenation, these laser hyperpigmentation sessions work to reduce the appearance of this aesthetic concern and help renew your complexion. We encourage you to contact our practice in Houston, TX for more information!

HOW DOES HYPERPIGMENTATION TREATMENT WORK?

Candidates for hyperpigmentation treatment will have areas of discoloration or dark spots on their face or neck. For your short appointment, you will be invited to relax in a comfortable private treatment room. Anesthesia and sedation are typically not required for treatments using the Harmony XL PRO laser from Alma. Your technician will pass the handpiece over your face and neck, and the laser’s light energy will target melanin spots in the skin without harming the skin’s top layers. After your appointment, the spots of hyperpigmentation should fade. You may need 3 – 4 sessions spaced about a month apart to see full results.
