brightening up

now that summer is almost over, many clients have been coming into the studio concerned about discoloration and brown spots caused by too much sun over the warmer months. such discoloration/hyperpigmentation is evidence of sun damage and as the cooler months take over, the discoloration becomes much more noticeable. so it's no wonder why my clients are rushing to come into see me.

exfoliating regularly is a great way to brighten up brown splotchy patches and dark spots, so a treatment like crystal microdermabrasion is a great way to go. you can also look into using scrubs or acid-based creams to help fade them away.

stronger treatments, such as laser therapy have also proven to be effective and produce more longlasting results as well.  however, one should always note that no treatment is forever.

in the October issue of Whole Living Magazine, they've dedicated an article explaining the different types of hyperpigmentation from sun spots to melasma, what they look like and how it happens. They also offer up five steps to brightening the skin and keeping brown spots at bay.

definitely read up on the article and if you have any questions about fresh.beautiful: the skin studio's mircrodermabrasion or cold laser therapy treatments, just give me a shout!
