Build + Brighten Skin This Fall

You’ll be getting a lot of clients coming through your spas and treatment rooms with sun damage. No matter how much you stress to your clients to avoid the sun and use a strong SPF, inevitably they will return to you with summer sun damage. The truly funny part is they may not even notice it.  However, the second you see them, you will instantly see the hyperpigmentation.

There are many ways to treat hyperpigmentation. Usually involving skin lightening agents and different types of exfoliation. The best efforts are when the lightening and exfoliation can be combined into a single treatment.

There are a variety of manual treatments such as microdermabrasion, dermaplaning, and microneedling to help manually strip away dead surface skin cells that have hyperpigmented. You can also combine chemical exfoliation by using peels. This combination of chemical and physical exfoliation will increase the intensity and strip away more dark spots.

The type of peel that is selected can focus on brightening skin while it is exfoliating. Peels that include Vitamin C will focus on brightening the skin during the process. But adding potent Vitamin C into daily home care can help continue the process of brightening the skin while this benchmark antioxidant builds the skin’s collagen arsenal.

You see, Vitamin C inhibits the tyrosinase enzyme– so less melanin is produced which helps the skin in preventing more dark spots.  The infusion of Vitamin C will also help to fight free radicals which are a known cause of hyperpigmentation.  You can also recommend a powerful Vitamin C serum your clients can apply after sun exposure to help repair sun damage.

We’ve combed through our award-winning skincare brands to come up with our favorite Vitamin C based products that you can use to help your clients battle hyperpigmentation.
