Hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone
Hi, I'm having hyperpigmentation around my nose and mouth. Also my skin tone is uneven and looks dull with little black spots.
Recently I heard about microdermabrasion, will it give good result for my problem? How long will the result last on my skin? Or should it do often.
How much do you charge for microdermabrasion.
Thanks in advance

For Dullness / Pigmentationâ¦.
Increase intake of water & citrus fruits . Sun protection is important . Photostable Gel SPF40 / BIODERMA Photoderm AKN Mat SPF30 / La Roche Posay Anthelios XL SPF 50 Dry Touch as sunscreen to be applied half an hour before sun exposure. Apply Biluma Cream/ Melaglow Rich cream for application once at night for 2 months.

1. Sunscreen and sunprotection- this forms the absolute cornerstone of management. You need to be on this for the duration of any treatment .
2. Apply a kojic acid cream for at least 8 weeks.
3. Chemical peels such as glycolic acid or microdermabrasion can help. You will need 4-7 treatments over the next few months.
The best treatment is a combination of the above.
