Dark spots, age spots, liver spots & melasma

When damage occurs beneath the layers of our skin, the skin forms a “band-aid” of redness and inflammation to heal the wound.  Some stay red, some turn a brown color.  We must heal the wound and those layers of skin that covered the wound.

Over time, people have developed many ways to treat this including lasers, chemical peels, tyronase inhibitors, hydroquinone – ALL unfortunately cause DNA damage to the skin, and do not treat the wound itself.  Some, like hydroquinone are extremely toxic and will eventually kill the tissue.  Some, unfortunately, will give positive results initially, then the results plateau.  Chemical peels and microdermabrasion leave the wound exposed to receiving even more damage and are not a good long term treatment.

First of all, it is important to identify the cause or wound to develop a treatment plan.  If it is liver or melasma, then the liver will need to be healed and regenerated for the body to take away the need to protect.  Then we will need to treat the skin with a monthly Medi-Infusion Facial, also Microcurrent, because it triggers cellular regeneration is also great.  I’m not big on using LED, because the results are so small, but if you want it, I don’t see the harm.   You will need a proper cleanser for your skin type,  1-3 serums, moisturizer that keeps your skin properly hydrated, to keep it balanced for healing, as well as sunscreen too.  Sun protection is VITAL, so I will definitely want to make sure that you are applying am and pm, as well as before going outside.  This will need to become a habit for you to make sure that you are not causing more wounds to your skin and more hyperpigmentation, or making them darker.  The darker and larger the hyperpigmentation, the larger the wound is.
