Uneven skin tone, dark spots, and sun damage can make your complexion look dull or aged. At Spa by RescueMD, we offer clinically proven hyperpigmentation treatments using cutting-edge laser technology and medical-grade skincare. Whether you’re looking for a quick boost or a long-term plan, we deliver safe and effective results tailored to your skin type.
What Is Hyperpigmentation?
Hyperpigmentation refers to the darkening of specific areas of the skin due to excess melanin production. It can appear as:
- Sunspots or age spots
- Melasma
- Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) from acne or injury
- Freckles
While not harmful, hyperpigmentation can be difficult to treat without the right approach.
What Causes Hyperpigmentation?
Common causes of hyperpigmentation include:
- Sun exposure (UV radiation triggers melanin production)
- Hormonal changes (e.g., pregnancy, birth control)
- Inflammation or skin injury (such as acne or eczema)
- Genetic predisposition
- Medications or cosmetics that increase photosensitivity
Understanding the underlying cause helps us personalize the best treatment for hyperpigmentation that suits your skin.
How Do We Treat Hyperpigmentation?
At Spa by RescueMD, we combine science-backed technology with expert guidance to target pigment at the surface and deep skin layers. Our approach is safe for all skin tones and highly customizable.
Our Hyperpigmentation Treatment Options
✨ DyeVL by Alma Lasers
The DyeVL handpiece uses narrowband light to break up melanin clusters and reduce red or brown pigmentation. It’s ideal for vascular-related pigmentation and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
✨ ClearLift by Alma Lasers
ClearLift is a non-ablative Q-switched laser that targets pigmentation deep within the dermis. With no downtime and excellent safety for darker skin types, it’s a powerful tool in our hyperpigmentation treatments.
🧪 3-Step Peel (ZO® Skin Health)
Our chemical peel for hyperpigmentation blends exfoliating acids, retinol, and calming agents to resurface the skin, boost cell turnover, and fade dark spots. It helps improve tone, texture, and clarity over time.
🧴 ZO® Skin Care
We offer medical-grade products like ZO® Brightalive®, retinol-based creams, and pigment control systems that work at home to lighten existing spots and prevent new ones from forming.
