Dark Circles

When looking to restore beauty and health to your skin, you may need to consider a dark spot treatment. Dark spots, also called age spots, are areas of hyperpigmentation caused by a variety of factors, including overexposure to the sun, irritation caused by a post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, melasma, and acne scarring. While this excess pigment under the skin can make you appear older than you are, it is not irreversible damage you have to willingly accept. There are many effective treatments available to deal with this common skin concern. Bleaching treatments such as hydroquinone, kojic acid, arbutin, azelaic acid and bearberry extract target and reduce pigment production in overactive melanocytes. Alpha hydroxy acids can also be used with bleaching agents to further lighten dark pigmentation by speeding up exfoliation and getting rid of damaged, pigmented skin. When looking for a dark spot treatment, choosing one with active ingredients capable of addressing the pigmentation issue effectively is the key to regaining your radiant skin. 

We offer several options from leading names in the world of skin care, including SkinCeuticals, Dr. Dennis Gross, Natura Bisse, and many more. Choose from an array of options packed with essential vitamins and antioxidants designed to eliminate hyperpigmentation. These formulas have all been clinically tested for effectiveness when dealing with this common skin concern for results your skin will love. When looking for a dark spot treatment, you should also consider how to best prevent future damage from the sun and the elements, as well as how to protect your skin while using a dark spot treatment. Your skin may be more vulnerable to further sun damage when using a treatment. Sunblock (with a minimum SPF of 30) should always be used when treating dark spots because sun exposure causes them to darken further, counteracting any benefits of treatments being used. We offer a wide selection of professional grade sunscreens designed to provide protective coverage from harmful UVA and UVB rays. Many are non-greasy and hypoallergenic for a transparent yet highly protective formula. We offer many options that are free of all irritating and pore-clogging oils and fragrances.
