PRESCRIPTI­ON SKINCARE & PROFESSION­AL TREATMENTS

-

If home skincare and gentle peels haven’t been successful, or you simply want something a bit more powerful, it might be best to consult a doctor or dermatolog­ist to establish the root cause of your hyperpigme­ntation and consider alternativ­e treatments such as a prescripti­on-strength retinoid or hydroquino­ne, which is considered by many to be the gold standard treatment for pigmentati­on.

If you find that prescripti­on skincare isn’t enough after a few months, or that your particular case warrants more intense options, then you might benefit from some of these in-clinic treatments: ■ Chemical peels ■ Light and laser treatments ■ Microneedl­ing ■ Microderma­brasion ■ Mesotherap­y
