Hyperpigmentation & Age Spots
Hyperpigmentation refers to areas of darkened skin caused by excess melanin production. It may appear as freckles, melasma, or blotchy patches across the cheeks, forehead, and upper lip. Common influences include sun exposure, hormonal fluctuations, inflammation, and prior skin injury.
At Preventous Cosmetic Medicine, your journey begins with a detailed consultation to identify the type and depth of pigmentation. From there, we design a personalized plan that may include laser rejuvenation, resurfacing treatments, or medical-grade skincare to help refine tone and support long-term clarity.
Age spots, also called sun spots or liver spots, are flat, brown marks that appear in frequently sun-exposed areas such as the face, hands, and chest. While harmless, these marks can contribute to an uneven tone and dullness over time.
At Preventous Cosmetic Medicine, we create individualized plans to reduce the appearance of dark spots using targeted light and resurfacing technologies, complemented by professional skincare to maintain results.
Long-term UV exposure can lead to visible texture changes, dullness, and pigmentation irregularities. These appearance-related concerns, often seen on the face, neck, chest, and hands, reflect cumulative photoaging rather than chronological age.
At Preventous Cosmetic Medicine, we begin with a comprehensive consultation to assess the extent of sun damage. From there, our licensed professionals create a personalized care plan combining resurfacing, light-based, and skincare solutions to improve tone, smoothness, and radiance.

Chemical peels support skin renewal and brightness by gently exfoliating dull, damaged surface layers. Mild to moderate peels can help minimize the appearance of pigment and smooth uneven texture over time.
Brightening serums and pigment-correcting creams with ingredients like hydroquinone, retinol, and vitamin C are often recommended to enhance and maintain the results of in-clinic services. These products support long-term clarity and help protect against future discoloration.
IPL photofacials are frequently selected for visible brown spots and diffuse redness. This light-based service helps promote more balanced color and tone without downtime.
Fractional laser services are designed to refine surface texture and target areas of uneven pigmentation caused by sun exposure. This fractional laser treatment helps reveal smoother, clearer-looking skin over time.
Professional resurfacing treatments exfoliate dull, sun-damaged layers to encourage fresher, more radiant skin. These can be tailored to target uneven tone, mild lines, and surface roughness.
Vascular laser treatment at Preventous Cosmetic Medicine precisely targets visible vascular pigmentation and small surface vessels. This vascular laser enhances overall clarity and evenness of tone.
Laser Toning is a gentle, non-ablative option that helps diffuse redness and refine texture. It’s ideal for subtle tone irregularities or early signs of sun-related dullness.
HydraFacial® is a gentle option that deeply cleanses, hydrates, and infuses the skin with brightening ingredients. When used regularly, it can help improve surface clarity and maintain a healthy, radiant glow.
