Can Pico Laser or IPL remove hyperpigmentation from a permanent tan or dark skin? (Photo)

The Picoway laser is a multipurpose laser which can improve hyperpigmentation and scarring.  The Picoway Resolve is especially designed to help with melasma and pigment issues.  As you know it is recommended that you get a formal consultation so that the issue is diagnosed correctly.  Thank you for for your question.  Best

Yes, these lasers may improve hyperpigmentation, but a combination approach may be needed. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Hyperpigmentation can be improved with a combination of lasers, Aerolase, microneedling/prp, skin lightening, peels, and skin care. Sun protection is essential.  Best, Dr. Emer

From that one picture I would recommend staying away from lasers and IPL. The darker your skin, the more complications can occur, especially hyper- and hypo-pigmentation. To lighten the skin after sun damage, I would recommend a combination of skin care and peels.
First I would use an exfoliating cleanser every day, vitamin C and retinol and a skin lightening serum. 
Second, you can consider a medical chemical peel that is safe on darker skin such as the VI peel. Be very careful to go to a professional who knows how to treat darker skin types. 
I hope that helps!
