Our Pigment & Tone Treatment Options
Resurface and Refresh Damaged Skin
Some discoloration develops deeper beneath the skin's surface and may not respond well to skincare products alone. When dark spots linger despite a consistent routine, laser resurfacing may help improve uneven tone and skin clarity.
We use Fraxel® DUAL, an FDA-cleared laser treatment, to address a range of pigmentation concerns, including sun damage, uneven skin tone, and certain forms of hyperpigmentation.
How Laser Resurfacing Works:
Laser resurfacing helps target unwanted discoloration while encouraging the skin's natural renewal process. As the body clears treated pigment, many patients notice a brighter, more even complexion over time.
Treatment plans are often staged over multiple sessions to promote improvement while protecting the skin's long-term health. Following treatment, diligent sun protection and adherence to post-treatment skincare recommendations are essential for healing and prevention of future discoloration.
Best For:
- Sun damage and age spots
- Uneven or blotchy skin tone
- Certain forms of hyperpigmentation
- Comprehensive skin rejuvenation
- Improved tone and texture
Results:
- Improvement develops gradually over several weeks
- Results vary based on pigment type
- Some redness and recovery time should be expected
Promote Skin Repair and Improve Brightness
Chemical peels can address surface-level pigmentation, helping improve overall brightness, clarity, and tone.
Chemical peels can be customized to address a variety of concerns, from sun damage and post-acne discoloration to uneven tone. They are often incorporated into a personalized treatment plan alongside skincare recommendations or other treatments designed to support long-term skin clarity.
How Chemical Peels Work:
Chemical peels accelerate the skin's natural renewal process by shedding skin cells. As fresh skin emerges, discoloration can fade, and skin tone may appear brighter and more uniform.
Peel treatments can be adjusted in strength, frequency, and formulation to balance visible improvement with skin health and comfort.
Best For:
- Mild to moderate sun damage
- Post-acne discoloration
- Uneven or dull-looking skin tone
- Gradual skin brightening
- Maintaining results between more advanced treatments
Results:
- Skin appears brighter within days
- Progressive improvement with repeated treatments
- Light flaking or peeling may occur

Frequently Asked Questions
Pigmentation can develop for many reasons, including sun exposure, hormonal changes, genetics, inflammation, and previous skin injuries. In some cases, multiple factors contribute simultaneously. Understanding the cause of discoloration is the first part of building an effective treatment plan.
Melasma can often be improved, but it typically requires a thoughtful, long-term approach. Because melasma is influenced by hormones, heat, and sun exposure, treatment focuses on fading discoloration while limiting triggers that can cause flare-ups.
The best treatment depends on your skin type, the cause of the pigmentation, how deep the discoloration extends, and your treatment goals.
Most pigmentation concerns improve over time rather than after a single treatment. The number of sessions depends on the type of discoloration being treated, its severity, and your skin's response. Your provider will outline a personalized treatment plan and timeline during your consultation.
Pigmentation can return, especially if the underlying cause remains active. Sun exposure, hormonal changes, inflammation, and certain lifestyle factors may all contribute to recurrence. Ongoing skincare, sun protection, and maintenance treatments can help preserve results and prevent future discoloration.
Some pigmentation treatments can be performed year-round, while others may be best scheduled during periods of lower sun exposure.
