A striking fact: skin discoloration affects more than 80% of adults past their fifties.
Dark spots, uneven skin tone, and hyperpigmentation can shake anyone’s confidence and self-image. The good news is that West Hollywood offers several proven treatments that work.
Beauty Vault Med Spa provides multiple specialized treatments like Microneedling, VI Peel, Cosmelan Peel, and Dermamelan Intimate peel. These treatments target various discoloration causes – from sun damage to hormonal changes. The results help restore your skin’s natural, even tone.
Let’s explore these treatment options together in this piece. You’ll learn what causes skin discoloration and what results you can expect from our professional treatments.
Types of Skin Discoloration Treatments
Beauty Vault Med Spa provides four proven treatments that target skin discoloration. Let’s explore these options to find the right solution that matches your needs.
Microneedling Treatment
Our microneedling technology stimulates your skin’s natural healing response. This gentle procedure creates microscopic channels in your skin that boost collagen production. The treatment works well with all skin types and tackles issues like hyperpigmentation and uneven tone. You can combine it with other therapies to get better results.
Cosmelan Hyperpigmentation Treatment
The Cosmelan Peel stands out as the gold standard treatment for tough melasma and hyperpigmentation. This depigmentation treatment regulates your skin’s melanin production. Our clients see remarkable changes in their sunspots, hormonal discoloration, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Dermamelan Intimate Hyperpigmentation Treatment
The innovative Dermamelan Intimate treatment targets sensitive areas with precision. This solution tackles hyperpigmentation in intimate regions in a single session. You’ll receive a tailored at-home maintenance plan to maintain your results.
VI Peel Treatment
The VI Peel combines potent ingredients to tackle multiple skin concerns at once. This treatment helps:
- Clear hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone
- Minimize sun damage and age spots
- Smooth rough skin texture
Our West Hollywood location customizes each treatment to match your skin’s unique needs and discoloration concerns.
What is Skin Discoloration (Hyperpigmentation)?
The basics of skin discoloration begin with an understanding of how skin gets its color. Many patients come to us puzzled about changes in their skin tone. Here’s what actually happens under your skin’s surface.
A change in your natural skin tone signals skin discoloration. This shows up as darker patches (hyperpigmentation) or lighter areas (hypopigmentation). These changes happen because of shifts in melanin levels – the natural pigment that colors our skin and shields it from sun damage.
Skin discoloration shows up in several distinct forms and colors:
- Brown or dark patches (most common)
- Reddish or pink areas
- Purple or blue-tinted spots
- Light or white patches
- Gray or tan discoloration
The sort of thing I love about skin discoloration is how it affects people of every skin tone. Our clinical experience shows these changes can appear anywhere, though they show up most often on sun-exposed parts like your face, neck, and hands.
Your body’s response to various triggers makes skin discoloration fascinating. Some cases clear up quickly, while others need treatment to fade. A healthcare professional should examine your skin to get a full picture and create the right treatment plan.
Important note: Most skin discoloration cases are harmless, but you should see a professional to ensure proper diagnosis and treatment, especially with sudden or unusual changes in your skin’s appearance.
Why do people get skin discoloration?
Beauty Vault Med Spa’s experience with skin discoloration treatment reveals several triggers that change skin pigmentation. Our West Hollywood practice identifies sun exposure as the most important cause. Your skin naturally defends itself by producing melanin.
Women who are pregnant or take oral contraceptives often visit us with hormone-related discoloration. Melasma shows up as larger patches on the face, and our Cosmelan Peel treatment works effectively against it.
Your skin’s color changes significantly due to environmental factors. Our clinic sees more cases related to:
- Air pollution and environmental toxins
- Chronic sun exposure without protection
- Exposure to certain chemicals and heavy metals
- Tobacco smoke
Skin inflammation or injury leads to discoloration in many patients. This post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation appears after acne heals, burns fade, or cuts mend. Some medications like antibiotics and chemotherapy drugs trigger pigmentation changes too.
Age affects how we treat skin discoloration. Melanin-producing cells become larger but fewer as time passes. This creates concentrated pigmentation areas, which explains why patients over 40 show more age spots.
Our experience shows that people with darker skin types (phototypes 3-6) develop pigmentation changes more easily than others. Their naturally higher melanin levels make discoloration more noticeable.
What are typical results with Chemical Peels & Microneedling for skin discoloration?
Many patients ask us about their skin discoloration treatment journey and expected outcomes. Years of experience show that chemical peels and microneedling both yield impressive results through different mechanisms.
Microneedling works by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production. You’ll notice changes within weeks, and most patients see 50-70% improvement in discoloration after completing their treatment series. The best results become visible over several months.
Chemical peels come with different levels of improvement:
- Light peels boost skin tone through repeated sessions
- Medium peels create smoother, more even skin tone
- Deep peels dramatically transform stubborn discoloration
The best results often come from combining different approaches. To cite an instance, microneedling paired with vitamin C has shown remarkable success in evening out skin tone and reducing hyperpigmentation.
It’s worth mentioning that: These improvements need proper maintenance to last. Your enhanced skin tone stays beautiful with yearly microneedling touch-ups and regular chemical peels. On top of that, proper sun protection becomes crucial to prevent new discoloration.
The path to your best results usually takes 3-6 treatments spaced properly apart. Your skin’s unique needs and discoloration severity will determine the exact number of sessions needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are the most common questions our patients ask about skin discoloration treatments at Beauty Vault Med Spa:
How long does it take to see results from treatments? You’ll notice the first improvements within a week of starting treatment. The full results typically show up after a few weeks of consistent care. We recommend completing the full treatment series as prescribed to get the best possible outcome.
Is the treatment process painful? Our treatments cause minimal discomfort and patients tolerate them easily. Your comfort remains our priority throughout the process. Any redness or tingling sensations usually fade away quickly after the treatment ends.
Can I wear makeup after treatments? Your skin needs time to heal properly after intensive treatments like Cosmelan. We suggest keeping your face makeup-free for at least a few days. This approach helps maximize your treatment’s results.
How many treatment sessions will I need? Each patient’s needs differ based on their specific condition and chosen treatment. Treatments like Microneedling typically need 3-6 treatments, spaced one month apart, while treatments like Cosmelan just need one treatment with the chance of a touch up later on.
What are the common side effects? Mild redness, peeling, and dryness might occur but usually clear up within days. Our detailed aftercare instructions help minimize discomfort and ensure smooth healing.
Will my skin discoloration return? Our treatments provide long-lasting results, but new pigmentation can develop from sun exposure. Regular sun protection and occasional maintenance treatments help preserve your results effectively.
