Sun Spot and Hyperpigmentation Treatment in Albuquerque
Uneven skin tone, sun spots, and dark patches can leave your complexion looking dull or aged. At My Skin Esthetics in Albuquerque, we offer targeted treatments to help reduce visible discoloration and restore smoother-looking skin.
Understanding Sun Spots and Hyperpigmentation
Sun spots and hyperpigmentation are common skin changes that appear as flat, dark patches on the face, chest, hands, or shoulders. These spots often develop from years of sun exposure, aging, or past inflammation. While they’re harmless, many people seek treatment to improve skin clarity and tone.
Where Sun Spots and Hyperpigmentation Show Up, and Who Gets Them
These darkened patches often appear on areas that get the most sun: the face, neck, chest, shoulders, arms, and hands. While anyone can develop them, they’re especially common in adults over 30, those with lighter skin tones, or people with a history of sun exposure. Hormonal changes and past skin inflammation can also increase the chance of hyperpigmentation.
What to Expect from Sun Spot and Hyperpigmentation Treatment
Skin Classic uses a quick pulse of targeted energy to gently treat sun spots and dark patches without lasers or harsh chemicals. The treated areas may darken slightly at first, then naturally flake off as the skin renews. Most clients experience little to no downtime and notice clearer, more even skin within one to two weeks.
Why Skin Classic Is Ideal for Treating Sun Spots and Hyperpigmentation
Skin Classic offers a precise, non-laser method for targeting dark spots at the surface level. It’s safe for many skin types and focuses only on the pigmented areas without damaging the surrounding skin. At My Skin Esthetics in Albuquerque, this treatment is a popular choice for clients who want results without harsh procedures or extended downtime.

FAQs About Treating Sun Spots and Hyperpigmentation
If you’re looking to treat uneven tone or discoloration, these common questions explain more about the causes of sun spots and the treatment options available.
Are sun spots the same as hyperpigmentation?
Sun spots are a type of hyperpigmentation, but not all hyperpigmentation is caused by the sun. Sun spots, also called age spots, develop from UV exposure over time. Hyperpigmentation can also come from skin injuries, inflammation, or hormonal changes. At My Skin Esthetics in Albuquerque, we treat both with Skin Classic for more even tone and clarity.
Will hyperpigmentation from the sun go away?
Mild sun-related hyperpigmentation may fade slowly over time, especially with sun protection and good skincare. However, many sun spots remain unless treated. Non-invasive options like Skin Classic can help fade or remove discoloration more quickly and effectively.
Can you reverse sun spots?
Yes, sun spots can be visibly reduced or removed using treatments that target pigment at the surface of the skin. At My Skin Esthetics, we use Skin Classic to treat sun spots without harsh peels or lasers, making it a gentle, effective option in Albuquerque.
How long does it take for hyperpigmentation to go away?
It depends on the cause and your skin type. Hyperpigmentation from the sun can take weeks or months to fade with at-home care. With in-office treatments like Skin Classic, most clients see improvement in just one to two weeks as dark spots naturally flake off.
How to get rid of sun spots ASAP?
The fastest way to treat sun spots is with a targeted professional treatment. Skin Classic uses precise energy to dry and lift pigment without damaging surrounding skin. It’s a quick procedure with little to no downtime, available at My Skin Esthetics in Albuquerque.
