Hello, My forehead and around mouth has darker tone than cheeks. Is there any suggestion on making it even or getting rid of hyperpigmentation?
Answer: This can be treated by doing chemical peels and laser treatments such as Clear & Brilliant or resurfx Fractional laser is an amazing and highly effective treatment in our office. We use the laser treatment to help with acne scars, large pores, fine wrinkles, tissue collagen loss, scars, sebaceous hyperplasia, active acne, and for brightening dark pigmentation. Although there are very strong fractional lasers such as CO2 laser, we use lighter treatments for corrective skincare and maintenance of results. Our Thulium fractional laser, clear and brilliant laser, and Ultra Thulium laser are excellent options in our clinic. We also perform CO2 fractional and erbium depending on skin tone and tolerance for downtime. Patients do have to use a Melarase cream before and after treatment to help further reduce pigmentation after laser. Dark spots can improve with these treatments. I recommend fractional laser for incisional scars as well, especially after plastic surgery. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Answer: Lightening hyperpigmentation Hello, there are several things to try to improve and even skin tone. A chemical peel designed for your skin type that has skin lighteners and brighteners may help, as will adding products to decrease areas of hyperpigmentation, such as SkinCeuticals Discoloration Defense. And most importantly, please use sunscreen at all times, as sun damage can darken skin and when you use lightening products, your skin is more sensitized and requires the protection of at least SPF 30 at all times.
