Why do spots appear after summer?
UV exposure stimulates the production of melanin, the skin's natural pigment. In some people, this production becomes excessive and unevenly distributed, leading to the appearance of pigmentation spots (lentigines, pregnancy mask, post-inflammatory marks…).
To restore an even complexion, you need to:
- Reduce the overproduction of melanin
- Accelerate cell renewal
- Prevent spots from reappearing
Step 1: the BabyFace treatment with tranexamic acid
BabyFace with LaseMD Ultra is Innerskin's flagship professional treatment for pigmentation spots.
Technology: gentle laser peel
Star active ingredient: tranexamic acid, a powerful depigmenting agent
Visible effects: faded spots, a brighter complexion, revitalised skin
Results from the very first session, with progressive improvement after 3 to 5 sessions.
Step 2: a microneedling session
To reinforce the results of the protocol, a microneedling session to boost cell renewal can be included to stimulate deep skin regeneration. This technique promotes collagen production and reactivates cell renewal, helping to improve the evenness of the complexion and the overall quality of the skin. It also helps corrective active ingredients penetrate better and optimises the effectiveness of depigmenting treatments.
Step 3: the Retinol Corrective Serum
The at-home skincare to prolong results and keep skin clear? The Retinol Corrective Serum.
- Stimulates cell renewal
- Corrects surface pigmentation spots
- Refines skin texture
Introduce it gradually into your evening routine (2 to 3 times a week), always combined with SPF 50+ sun protection in the morning.
The results
✔ Faded pigmentation spots
✔ A more even complexion
✔ Natural radiance restored
✔ Smoother skin texture
