Uneven Skin Tone

Uneven skin tone is caused by hyperpigmentation or hypo-pigmentation from UV damage or hormonal changes from birth control, pregnancy or menopause. Overactive melanocytes increase pigmentation and can be controlled with peels and at home protocols.

Uneven skin tone can also be caused by texture from scarring or enlarged pores. The texture can attract shadows from light to emphasise these factors and impact and even skin tone.

Lasers can treat more superficial pigmentation by resurfacing the skin to reveal new, healthy and even skin tone. Resurfacing treatments such as peels and the Youlase laser can restore a smooth texture to the skin and accelerate skin cell turnover to diminish the appearance of darkened pigment.

Your aesthetician will help you to determine the best treatment to restore an even skin tone after thoroughly assessing your unique skin.
