Fall is upon us, which we know is the best time to clean up summer sun damage. Here are the best treatments for clearing hyperpigmentation:
Chemical peels
Here at Belle Vie, we offer the Vi Peel line such as Vi Peel precision plus, a 7 day peel, that has 8% Hydroquinone and other incredible ingredients for pigment such as TCA, Phenol, Retinoic Acid, and more. We also offer the Reve Enlighten Peel, which is a 28 day peel with Hydroquinone that also comes with retinol and Hydroquinone cream.
IPL
IPL treats hyperpigmentation by utilizing powerful flashes of light in short polychromatic rays. The energy generated by the light penetrates the layers of skin below the skin’s surface and begins to fight the melanin that is causing the blemishes. Heat penetrates the pigment particles and attacks them, breaking and destroying their bonds. The particles then rise to the surface and form as scabs only to break off, or are carried into the lymph and naturally excreted by the body.
Lytera® 2.0
An advanced Pigment Correcting Serum, formulated to address the appearance of stubborn skin discoloration. It helps optimize results of multiple treatment approaches, including chemical peels, laser therapy, hydrafacials, and prescription skin care products, such as hydroquinone.
Hydroquinone
Hydroquinone is a depigmenting agent used to lighten areas of darkened skin such as freckles, age spots, chloasma, and melasma caused by pregnancy, birth control pills, hormone medicine, or injury to the skin. Hydroquinone decreases the formation of melanin in the skin. Melanin is the pigment in skin that gives it a brown color.
