San Antonio’s Best Facials: Signature & Clinical Skincare Since 1991

 

Fade dark spots and restore your skin’s even tone with customized hyperpigmentation treatments.

At Skin Rejuvenation Clinique in San Antonio, we understand how frustrating uneven pigmentation—like age spots, melasma, or post-acne marks—can be. Our specialized treatments combine expert topical remedies and advanced procedures to brighten complexion and improve overall skin clarity.


What Is Hyperpigmentation?

Hyperpigmentation occurs when melanin production increases due to factors like sun damage, hormonal changes, inflammation, or injury. Common forms include:

  • Melasma (hormonal discoloration)

  • Sun spots/age spots

  • Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) — dark marks after acne, injury, or irritation


How We Treat Hyperpigmentation

Our approach addresses both the surface and underlying causes:

1. Topical Treatments

  • Hydroquinone (prescription-level), often combined with retinoids and gentle cortisones for melasma and resistant pigmentation.

  • Brightening agents like vitamin C, niacinamide, kojic acid, and azelaic acid — effective, gentle alternatives. 

2. Safe, Medical-Grade Exfoliation

  • Chemical peels (superficial to medium depth) to resurface skin and target pigment. 

  • Microdermabrasion helps slough off dead skin cells to smooth tone. 

3. Light-Based & Laser Treatments

  • IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) and non-ablative laser therapies reduce sun spots, redness and improve tone with minimal downtime.

  • Fractional laser resurfacing for deeper pigment reduction and texture refining. 


Ideal Candidate for Treatment

You may benefit from hyperpigmentation services if you have:

  • Uneven skin tone due to UV damage, melasma, or acne scars

  • Yellow or brown patches, or dark marks on face, hands, or chest

  • Tried over-the-counter remedies with limited success

Candidate assessment includes skin type, pigmentation type (epidermal vs. dermal), and triggers (sun, hormones, irritation). Merck Manuals+1


What to Expect During Treatment

  1. Consultation & Skin Analysis
    We diagnose the type and cause of your hyperpigmentation to create a personalized treatment plan.

  2. Treatment Session
    You may receive a topical brightening application, followed by a peel or advanced light/laser therapy.

  3. Downtime & Results
    Recovery varies by service—light peels or IPL typically cause mild redness for 1–2 days; deeper lasers require longer healing times.
    Noticeable results appear after one session, with fuller benefits after a treatment series.


Hyperpigmentation FAQs

What treatment is best for me?
We customize your plan based on your skin tone, pigmentation type, and sensitivity.

Is hyperpigmentation permanent?
No—proper treatment plus consistent protection can significantly reduce discoloration over time.

Why is daily SPF so important?
Sun exposure can worsen pigmentation and undo treatment progress—daily broad-spectrum SPF is essential.

How long until I see improvement?
Depending on treatment and skin depth involved, initial improvements may occur in 2–4 weeks. Full results often require several sessions.
