Dark Spots
Hyperpigmentation, or dark spots, can be caused by acne scars, excessive sun exposure,
or hormonal changes. Dark spots on the skin, or hyperpigmentation, occur when
some areas of the skin produce more melanin than usual. Melanin gives the eyes,
skin, and hair their color.
How to prevent dark spots
Avoiding skin damage in the first place is typically the best solution.
A targeted skincare routine - taking care to protect your skin even after you have spots will keep them from worsening.
Strict sun protection is key in fading dark spots. Use products with blocking ingredients like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide otherwise the spots can come back even after removal.

Discover HydraFacial for Dark Spots
It's simply the best treatment for healthier, clearer, and more hydrated skin, and it's perfect for all skin types. HydraFacial™ treatments might be just what you need to achieve radiant, smoother, replenished, younger-looking skin quickly and non-invasively. You can expect:
Increased collagen formation
Decreased pore size and fine lines
Decreased hyperpigmentation
Improved texture and skin tone
HydraFacial helps rosacea because it uses massage techniques, and vortex fusion technology and contains skin-renewing ingredients that help to soothe inflamed, red skin and correct uneven pigmentation.
The first step of HydraFacial is massage-based to help improve the natural circulation of the lymphatic system. This helps to increase blood flow and oxygen levels in the skin which may relieve the tightness often experienced with rosacea. By also encouraging the fast removal of toxins and waste through the lymphatic system, it may reduce the development of bumps and spots experienced alongside chronic redness.
The other stages of HydraFacial, like the cleansing and exfoliating stage, work to remove dead skin cells and promote overall stronger skin health which always makes your complexion look brighter.
As certain exfoliants can irritate rosacea, and worsen redness, this step is a very gentle process that contains natural botanical extracts and ingredients to nourish the skin. Some of these ingredients used are:
Lactic acid – an alpha hydroxy acid specifically used to treat hyperpigmentation and uneven complexion
Glucosamine – for regenerating skin cells, improving hydration, and inhibiting the development of red pigmentation
Antioxidants – to repair, and reduce inflammation, of the skin as well as fine lines and wrinkles
During stages 3, 4, and 5, you can expect your skin to be deeply clarified and all the impurities removed. Then your skin will be rehydrated and flooded with essential brightening agents, more antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid to leave your skin feeling rejuvenated and glowing.
These steps help to reduce the appearance of rosacea, as they work to restore the pores to their normal size – which can improve the appearance of visible blood vessels. HydraFacial’s gentle skin resurfacing properties also help fade away the redness.
In the final stage of HydraFacial, a hand-led, infrared light device is passed across the skin which has large benefits in pigmentation correction. The light energy targets and accelerates the repair of broken blood vessels and helps to prevent excessive flushing which are prominent symptoms of rosacea.
