What treatment could lighten the skin between my eyebrows? (photo)

Question

I have what looks like a dark shadow inbetween my eyebrows I believe do to some scarring. it is slightly depressed. Is there any way to lighten the area?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

start with a cosmelan peel + cosmelan post care + MTS roller (see link to emeragecosmetics.com for products which can be sent to you through virutal consultation) then in the office do BBL and halo to help improve texture and color.  
Hyperpigmentation from any type needs a combination approach of peels like cosmelan,  lasers like clear and brilliant and aerolase or laser genesis, radiofrequency like venus viva, and constant skin care and sun protection.  Bimontly facials with silk peel dermalinfusion is essential to hydrate, exfoliate and infuse vitamins and antioxidants into the skin.  If you have acne you can do additional treatments and peels to get more improvement.  I suggest a formal consultation with an expert in lasers and peels. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hello, I would suggest an in person consultation as it's hard to see in this picture.  If there is scarring that is depressed you will want to rebuild that collagen with some microneedling treatments.  We use vivace which is a combination treatment of microneedling and radio frequency and we've been able to achieve great results with minimizing scarring.  It can help with hyperpigmentation as well but you may need a different treatment to lighten it completely.  Laser like the picoway resolve, chemical peels, and hydroquinone (a topical lightening agent) can all help to brighten the skin and reduce hyperpigmentation.  Good luck!
