Uneven skin tone is blotchy, irregular skin pigmentation. This skin condition can age the skin and embolden the development of wrinkles, creasing, and fine lines. The skin’s pigmentation becomes asymmetrical and leads to unappealing aesthetic changes to one’s appearance.
Causes include:
- Natural Hyperpigmentation
- Exposure to UV Rays
- Genetic Predisposition
- Hormonal Change
Each patient will display a unique set of causes and symptoms depending on their body’s reaction. While some will notice active/inactive acne (scarring) others will notice isolated dark spots. Our specialist can help determine why the skin is uneven and the applicable treatment.
What Does the Treatment Encompass
With uneven skin tones, the target areas are mapped to determine a suitable, pain-free option. With the use of targeted wavelengths, the specialist is able to get under the skin and maximize energy. The goal of this procedure is to rejuvenate skin cells and help kick-start collagen production.
Once the areas are mapped, a specialist will apply the topical anesthetic. This is used to calm the target region and avoid pain/discomfort at any stage. While this treatment is safe and approved by Health Canada, Signature Cosmetic Clinic prides itself on taking precautionary measures for the patient’s peace of mind. All relevant details are penned before the treatment plan is established to ensure patients are content with their procedure.
After the topical anesthetic is applied, the laser will be directed at the dermal layer of skin. This helps provoke collagen building and eliminate hyperpigmentation in the skin. In the hands of a certified specialist, the results are noticeable and life changing.
This treatment will include a final assessment by a certified specialist to determine if the procedure is successful. Once satisfied, the patient will be asked to pinpoint side effects (mild redness, mild discomfort) before leaving. In general, this procedure is safe and will not cause any sign of discomfort.
