Uneven tone & sun damage

Skin tone is often the very first thing people notice about a face — before fine lines, before texture, even before features — which is part of why uneven tone can feel so front-and-center. Years of sun exposure show up as pigment, redness, and dullness, often more noticeably on the neck, chest, and hands than on the face itself.

Brightening serums and SPF can help maintain results, but pigment that’s already set into the skin often requires treatments that work at the source. Peels, light and laser-based treatments target these changes directly while also renewing collagen for healthier-looking skin overall.

BBL and HALO work beautifully together, since each addresses a different layer of what sun exposure does to skin over time. BBL uses gentle, targeted light to fade pigment and calm redness right at the surface — it’s especially good for sun spots and those small broken capillaries that show up over the years. HALO goes a little deeper, softly resurfacing the skin to improve both tone and texture at once, which helps when the two concerns show up together. For skin that’s seen more significant sun damage, we sometimes combine both in a single visit for a fuller, more complete result.

Your physician will get to know your skin before recommending either one, or both — taking into account your skin type, how much downtime fits your life right now, and even the season, since protecting your skin from the sun afterward is such an important part of the process. Most people start to see real improvement within one to three sessions. And afterward, daily sun protection isn’t just a suggestion — it’s how we help protect the results you’ve worked for, so the same sun exposure that caused the concern doesn’t undo the progress.
