Skin Brightening

Here is Morgan, one of our star aestheticians
Summer just ended last week and now some of us may be dealing with the aftermath of its effect on our skin.  Sun spots can be zapped away with a few IPL (intense pulsed light) sessions along with Green Peel.  The peel will cause your skin to shed a couple layers, bringing younger, newer skin to the surface.  IPL does not work on melasma or genetic freckles.  Ask us for other procedures regarding those skin concerns.
Dark spots and hyper pigmentation can also be treated with products such as our private label Bright Now Cream and Pads.   The cream contains lactic and kojic acids, which work in synergy to naturally lift the darker spots; it can be applied 1-2 times daily.  The exfoliator pads contain lactic and azelaic acids and are used once weekly; it is similar to doing an at-home chemical peel.  Smooth the pad over areas to be treated.  On first use, rinse off after approximately 15 minutes and then gradually increase contact time to overnight.  After assessing your skin type, we can give you personalized instructions to maximize the efficacy of the products.
