Skin Concern
Hyperpigmentation Treatment
Fade dark spots, melasma, sun damage, and post-inflammatory pigmentation with targeted, medical-grade treatments tailored to your skin tone.
A Tailored Approach to Even Skin Tone
Hyperpigmentation has many causes, and no single treatment addresses all types equally well. At Lavish Beauty, we combine Laser Genesis, HydraFacial, Microneedling, and Green Peel to create a customised plan that targets your specific type of pigmentation safely and effectively.
Our Treatments for Pigmentation
Laser Genesis
Gently disperses melanin deposits and reduces post-inflammatory redness. Safe for all skin tones. From $160.
HydraFacial
Brightening boosters inhibit melanin production while deeply hydrating for an immediate glow. From $199.
Microneedling
Collagen remodelling breaks up deep pigmentation and creates a more uniform skin tone. $300.
Green Peel
Accelerates turnover of pigmented surface cells, revealing fresh, even-toned skin beneath. From $215.
Types We Treat
Sun Spots
Flat brown patches caused by cumulative UV exposure. Common on cheeks, forehead, and hands.
Melasma
Hormone-driven discolouration, often symmetrical on the cheeks, forehead, or upper lip.
PIH
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Dark marks left behind after acne, burns, or skin injuries.
Age Spots
Also called liver spots. Concentrated melanin deposits that develop with age and sun exposure.
Common Questions
What causes hyperpigmentation?
+
Hyperpigmentation occurs when excess melanin is deposited in the skin. Common causes include sun exposure (sun spots), hormonal changes (melasma), and post-inflammatory responses from acne or injury (PIH). Calgary's high-altitude UV exposure makes sun-related pigmentation particularly common.
Which treatment is best for my type of dark spots?
+
It depends on the type and depth of pigmentation. Laser Genesis works beautifully for diffuse discolouration and post-inflammatory redness. HydraFacial with brightening boosters targets surface-level spots. Microneedling addresses deeper pigmentation through collagen remodelling. Green Peel accelerates turnover of pigmented cells. We recommend a consultation to determine the best approach.
Can you treat melasma?
+
Yes, though melasma requires a careful, gentle approach. We use HydraFacial with brightening serums and Green Peel Fresh for safe, non-aggressive treatment. Laser Genesis at conservative settings can also help. Melasma management is an ongoing process, and daily SPF is absolutely essential.
How many sessions will I need?
+
Most hyperpigmentation concerns improve significantly within 4 to 6 sessions, depending on the treatment selected and the depth of pigmentation. Sun spots typically respond faster than melasma. Your aesthetician will create a personalised timeline during your consultation.
Is treatment safe for dark skin tones?
+
Absolutely. HydraFacial, Microneedling, Green Peel, and Dermaplaning are all inherently safe for every skin tone. Laser Genesis uses the 1064nm wavelength, which is the safest laser wavelength for melanin-rich skin. We adjust all treatment parameters to your Fitzpatrick skin type.
How much does hyperpigmentation treatment cost?
+
Pricing depends on the treatment: Laser Genesis from $160, HydraFacial from $199, Microneedling $300, Green Peel from $215. Many clients benefit from a combination approach. We will recommend the most effective and cost-efficient plan for your specific pigmentation concern.
