There are certain cosmetic treatments that can help to fade and improve the appearance of dark spots on the skin caused by hyperpigmentation, such as chemical peeling treatment.
Chemical peels are treatments that can break up the melanin clusters that form dark spots. The applied solution removes a damaged layer of skin and as it heals, it will reveal a newer, healthier, blemish-free layer. There are various types and concentrations of chemical peels to treat superficial dark spots or for more serious skin problems.
At Clinica Rigo Aesthetic Medicine in Tarragona, we offer a range of medical grade chemical peels, with different strengths, from superficial to deep peels and different active ingredients to suit different skin types, concerns and tones.
All our chemical peel treatments are preceded by a full consultation, we will help you establish the type of chemical peel that will have the greatest effect for you and your needs. This will be based on your lifestyle, skin concerns, goals and other factors that we will discuss with you during the consultation period.
If you are considering a chemical peel treatment, you will also need to follow a home care regimen with specifically recommended products in order to achieve optimal results. This is especially important for patients with darker skin tones, as it will help prevent hyperpigmentation and sun damage after treatment, as well as for patients undergoing deeper or more intense chemical peels, to prevent any skin damage.
