Dark spots on the skin are caused by an overproduction of melanin, also called hyperpigmentation. This compound is what gives the skin, hair, and eyes color. Depending on the underlying cause, dark spots may also be called sunspots or age spots. Want to learn more about dark spot removal treatment in Arlington? You’ve come to the right place!
What Causes Dark Spots?
Dark spots can appear anywhere on the body, though they are most common on the face, shoulders, back, and hands. There are many different factors that can cause them to appear on the skin including:
- Sun damage
- Acne scars
- Hormonal changes
- Side effects from certain medications
The good news is that they aren’t permanent. Various treatments can be used to minimize the appearance of these marks, creating a more even and balanced skin tone.
Here Are the Top 3 Options for Dark Spot Removal Treatment in Arlington
- MicroLaserPeel: Laser technology works wonders to transform the skin. MicroLaserPeel corrects uneven pigment by getting rid of the damaged top layer of your skin. After just one session, you’ll notice that your skin looks brighter and healthier.
- Chemical peels: A chemical peel is a safe, non-invasive way to improve the skin’s tone and texture. Peels are great for addressing hyperpigmentation including sun damage, exfoliating the skin to remove dead and damaged skin cells using compounds like glycolic acid, trichloroacetic acid, and alpha hydroxy acid.
- Microdermabrasion: This is another non-invasive treatment that removes the outermost layer of the skin. Microdermabrasion promotes cellular renewal and collagen production while also revealing a smooth, even complexion. It works well to address dull tone as well as sun spots, age spots, and hyperpigmentation.
