I am a 38 year old female, 56 kg weight and 170 cm tall. My skin type is II Fritzpatrick. Few years back I had diamond microdermabrasion treatment and fractional laser treatment on my face. It was too deep on my right cheek, in my opinion.

Answer: Options for dark spots and uneven skin Hello and thanks for your question! In our practice, we commonly see patients with similar concerns to yours. We frequently recommend IPL for an uneven skin tone, whether it is red or brown hyperpigmentation that is bothersome to the patient. Laser Genesis is also an option to treat an uneven skin tone, specifically discoloration from acne scarring. To address uneven skin such as scarring or fine lines, we typically suggest SkinPen microneedling which initiates your body's natural wound healing process and induces collagen production. Once new collagen is built, scars appear smoother and some patients see improvement in their overall skin tone as well, such as those who have melasma. We always recommend seeing a Registered Nurse in a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon's office who can provide you with a thorough evaluation of your unique anatomy. Good luck!
