How to Get Rid of Hyperpigmentation

What is Hyperpigmentation?

Are you dealing with uneven skin or dark spots on your skin? Hyperpigmentation, as it is often known, occurs when the skin produces skin’s natural pigment- melanin- excessively. Skin becomes darker than the normal surrounding skin, which can be caused by everything from acne scars and sun damage to hormone changes. The affected areas appear as freckles, age spots, or melasma.

And these freckles, imperfections, or darkened patches become darker or more severe when skin is overexposed to the sun. Sun protection and limiting sun exposure help reduce the chances of hyperpigmentation. 

While prevention is the best, once you have skin unevenness, there are treatments that you can take to help fade them and minimize their reappearance. If you opt for an even complexion and get treated for hyperpigmentation, you have the following treatment options at AskCares.

 

Hyperpigmentation Treatments

HL Professional Peel

HL Professional Peel: A natural AHA-based peeling works by exfoliating, or sloughing away, the top layer of your skin. Dull, dead cells are removed when you exfoliate your skin, and new skin cells are revealed. Renewed fresh and young cells come to replace old ones. This process helps even out the skin tone and makes it smoother overall. Professional peeling at regular intervals (usually monthly apart) helps cell renewal and reduces the reappearance of hyperpigmentation.

At AskCares, we use combined luxury peeling serum from Holy Land MD (Israel), which gives a more brightening, smoothing effect leaving skin even tone and texture. HL Professional Peeling is a gentle peeling that works best for those who do not require deep layer peeling. It is formulated with retinol, which helps both hyperpigmentation and wrinkles.

Moreover, the total HL Professional Peel procedure comes with different masks to brighten and tighten the skin right after the treatment. In addition to the visible instant glow and tightening effect, this treatment helps boost cell renewal and collagen production at cellular levels, firming the skin and reducing the fine lines and wrinkles.

Perfect Derma Peel

Perfect Derma Peel: A potent blend of TCA, kojic acid, retinoic acid, salicylic acid, phenol, vitamin C, and Glutathione to diminish hyperpigmentation from acne scars and sunspot to melasma. It is perfect for severely affected skin that needs intense shedding. Perfect Derma Peel takes a step further and addresses issues such as fine lines, wrinkles, and the look of enlarged pores in mature and aging skin as well. It helps build collagen and elastin that enhance elasticity and bring back bouncy to the skin. The result is an even younger-looking complexion with a healthy glow.

 

Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation

Treatments work wonders when combined than alone. A week after the peel, you can go for HydraFacial or Oxygen Facial. As the skin is still fresh and new, active ingredients like essential vitamins, botanicals, antioxidants, and peptides penetrate deeper, increasing the treatment effectiveness. These treatments replenish moisture to hydrate the skin immensely, which helps protect and soothe the skin from sun exposure.
