Brown Spots & Sun Damage
Clear what sun left behind.
Sun spots, age spots, and diffuse sun damage are some of the most satisfying things to treat — a single well-chosen session can clear years of accumulated pigment, and follow-up maintenance is minimal.
How we actually fix it.
Intense pulsed light (IPL) selectively targets pigment and hemoglobin: sun spots visibly darken, flake off over the following week, and the skin underneath looks dramatically clearer. Medical-grade chemical peels work at a shallower depth — great for diffuse sun damage and melasma-prone skin where IPL isn't appropriate. Microneedling plays a supporting role by helping post-inflammatory marks resolve faster.
What we reach for.
