Hyperpigmentation Treatment in South Surrey BC

Yes! One of microneedling’s major benefits is the treatment of hyperpigmentation. Hyperpigmentation is a very common skin issue that can cause patches of your skin to be discoloured. This discolouration can occur because of excess melanin in the skin. Increased melanin production in the skin happens for a plethora of different reasons including hormone imbalances, high amounts of sun exposure, inflammation, skin injuries, and age. A combination of microneedling, medical-grade facials, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and laser therapy can permanently resolve hyperpigmentation.

Microneedling is a procedure performed by dermatologists and cosmetic specialists to treat hyperpigmentation. During the procedure, your provider will use extremely little, few sterilized needles to gently prick the skin. These painless pricks trigger a healing response in the skin which encourages collagen and elastin production. Collagen is a protein in the skin that contains amino acids which minimize dark spots. Mediworks Rejuvenation Centre provides eDermaStamp microneedling for hyperpigmentation in the face, hands, neck, legs, chest, and more.

Before your microneedling sessions, you will have a consultation appointment with one of our incredible skin specialists. During this consultation, your specialist can walk you through the entire process. We recommend you avoid harsh cleansers, retinoids, exfoliants, anti-inflammatory medications, laser procedures, sun exposure, and self-tanners at least a week before microneedling.
 
This treatment is minimally invasive, very safe, and painless. Your face or body will first be cleansed with gentle skincare products. Next, your specialist will ask you a few standard questions and then treat the area of the body that has dark spots. The actual treatment process only takes about 15 to 45 minutes depending on the size of the area being treated. If you have any questions before, during, or after your microneedling session, make sure to talk to your specialist.
 
After treatment, you will be given a list of instructions to encourage healthy and quick healing. Fortunately, you can go back to your daily life directly after your microneedling treatment! Our team recommends that you use very gentle cleansers for the week following your session. It’s also very important to stay away from the high amounts of the sun for four to six weeks after microneedling. Don’t forget to wear SPF 30 or higher on your skin every day, especially after medical spa services!
 
You should begin to see results right away which will slowly improve in a four to the six-week window. After this time period is over and your end results are shown, we may advise another session for long-lasting, optimal results, face rejuvenating results!
