Fall is on the way — and it's a good time to think about the sun damage summer left behind.
Hyperpigmentation is one of the most common concerns patients bring up this time of year — dark spots, uneven tone, and areas of discoloration that showed up (or got worse) over the summer months.
Two treatment options that address this differently:
Chemical peels work by removing the outer layer(s) of skin, which encourages skin regeneration and can help address surface-level discoloration.
Microneedling works by triggering the body's natural wound-healing response, stimulating collagen production and cell turnover from within the skin.
Which approach fits best depends on your skin type, the depth of the pigmentation, and your downtime tolerance — something we go through during a consultation.
