When it comes to aging signs, hyperpigmentation or black spots on skin may not be the first thing in mind, but they can give our age away almost as quickly. Furthermore, they don’t appear exclusively as a sign of aging as changes in hormones can also cause wound healing, medication side effects, inflammation, or diabetes.
In this context, when a patient is unhappy with the appearance of dark spots, there are plenty of successful treatments to consider. One example is the Fraxel Dual laser treatment, a non-invasive treatment designed to create a younger-looking appearance, including reducing dark spots, in just a single session. This laser can be applied on many regions beyond the face, like hands and body, and uses microscopic laser columns that penetrate the deeper layers of the skin. It also treats separate fractions of the skin at a time, leaving the surrounding tissue intact, which promotes faster healing and better results.
Another option is Sciton’s Forever Young BBL treatment, which is different from others by being the only one proven to change the expression of the genes associated with aging. It is a non-invasive treatment and uses broadband light delivered to the top and middle layers of skin. This light stimulates skin tone, elasticity, pigmentation, and texture changes. The Infrared technology provides visible complexion improvements to the top layer of the skin and has some anti-aging effects.
In conclusion, when it comes to dark spot treatments, there are so many options available that it can be hard to know where to start. Laser and light procedures are always good alternatives to be considered due to their high efficacy and safety when performed by a trusted professional.
