Pigmentation Treatment
Your skin cells contain melanocytes, which produce melanin -- the substance that determines your skin color. When melanin production is uneven, it can result in hyperpigmentation (too much melanin) or hypopigmentation (too little). Our dermatologists safely and effectively treat a range of pigmentation concerns to restore a more even, balanced skin tone.
What Causes Uneven Skin Pigmentation?
Hypopigmentation can be caused by inflammation, vitiligo, various fungal infections, and certain medications. Hyperpigmentation is often caused by excess iron in the system, exposure to ultraviolet sun rays, endocrine conditions such as Addison's disease, or pregnancy.
What We Treat
We safely treat any benign hyperpigmentation, including freckles, sun spots, age spots, and cafe au lait birthmarks. Any area of the body can be treated, with the most common areas being the face, neck, chest, arms, and hands.
Laser Pigmentation Removal
We use advanced laser technology, including the PicoWay laser system, to target and remove unwanted pigmentation. The PicoWay system is indicated for benign pigmented lesion removal for Fitzpatrick Skin Types I-III. For most patients, treatments are performed every 4 to 8 weeks based on clinical judgment.
A complimentary consultation is required prior to treatment to ensure you are a good candidate. Patients with raised pigmentation or a history of skin cancer are not candidates for laser pigmentation removal.
