Effective Treatment Options for Hyperpigmentation at West Derm Center

At West Derm Center, we offer several advanced treatments to treat hyperpigmentation and give you a more even skin tone.

1. Laser Skin Resurfacing

Laser treatments, such as fractional CO2 lasers or intense pulsed light (IPL), target dark spots by breaking down excess melanin and stimulating collagen production. These treatments can reduce the appearance of sunspots, melasma, and acne scars, leaving you with clearer, more even skin.

2. Chemical Peels

Chemical peels use exfoliating acids to remove the outer layer of skin, helping to lighten dark spots and improve skin texture. This treatment can effectively address sunspots, acne scars, and other forms of hyperpigmentation.

3. Topical Treatments

We offer prescription-strength topical treatments, including retinoids and hydroquinone, to help lighten dark spots and even out skin tone. These treatments are great for reducing pigmentation caused by acne scars or sun exposure.

4. Microneedling

Microneedling creates tiny, controlled injuries in the skin to stimulate collagen production. When combined with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), microneedling can help reduce pigmentation and improve the overall texture and appearance of your skin.

5. Sun Protection

Sun protection is key to preventing hyperpigmentation from worsening. At West Derm Center, we educate our patients on the importance of daily sunscreen use to protect the skin from UV damage and prevent new spots from forming.
