// Overview

At ElevateMuà, we offer two highly effective, non-surgical treatments to address one of the most common skin concerns: hyperpigmentation. Whether caused by sun exposure, inflammation, hormonal changes, or post-acne scarring, uneven skin tone and dark spots can impact how you feel about your skin.

Using IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) and PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), which are performed as separate treatment options, we help you reduce visible pigmentation, restore balance, and regain your natural glow.

You deserve radiant, clear skin — and we’re here to help you get there.

What Are Hyperpigmentation Treatments?

Non-Invasive Solutions for Dark Spots, Melasma & Acne Marks

Hyperpigmentation occurs when your skin produces excess melanin in response to sun damage, hormonal changes, or trauma, such as acne breakouts. At ElevateMuà, we treat it with a personalized approach, offering two separate, science-backed options:

  • IPL targets melanin directly, breaking up discoloration for clearer, more even skin.
  • PRP enhances skin healing, reduces inflammation, and encourages natural cell turnover.

Your treatment plan will be tailored to your specific skin type, pigment depth, and overall goals.

Option 1: IPL Photofacial for Hyperpigmentation

Light-Powered Clarity for Uneven Tone

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) delivers controlled pulses of broad-spectrum light that target and break down dark pigment clusters beneath the skin. Over time, these spots fade as your body naturally clears them, revealing a smoother, brighter complexion.

Ideal For:

  • Sunspots and age spots
  • Freckles and Melasma
  • Uneven tone and blotchy skin
  • Hyperpigmentation on the face, neck, chest, or hands

What to Expect:

  • Quick, non-invasive treatment
  • A mild warming or snapping sensation
  • Temporary redness and possible darkening of spots before they fade
  • Gradual brightening and evening of the skin over 7–10 days

Best results in a series of 3–6 sessions, spaced a few weeks apart

Option 2: PRP Rejuvenation for Post-Inflammatory Pigmentation

Natural Skin Renewal for a Healthy Glow

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a regenerative treatment using your body’s own healing properties to support skin repair. By encouraging cell turnover and reducing inflammation, PRP helps fade discoloration, improve tone, and restore overall skin health.

Ideal For:

  • Acne scarring or post-acne pigmentation
  • Inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH)
  • Dull or uneven texture
  • Sensitive or reactive skin prone to dark marks

What to Expect:

  • A simple blood draw followed by PRP extraction
  • PRP is applied topically or with microneedling
  • Mild redness or sensitivity for 24–48 hours
  • Visible improvement in tone and texture over 2–3 weeks
  • Best results in a series of 3–4 treatments

What to Expect — Before, During & After Treatment

Before Your Session
Avoid sun exposure, retinoids, and exfoliants for 5–7 days. We’ll guide you through a consultation to determine whether IPL or PRP is the best option for your skin.

During Treatment

  • IPL: You’ll feel a gentle warming or snapping sensation as light pulses target the skin.
  • PRP: After drawing your blood and preparing the plasma, we’ll apply it gently or via microneedling, depending on your goals.

After Treatment
Expect mild redness or sensitivity. IPL may cause temporary darkening of pigment before it fades. PRP may result in slight flaking or tightening. Avoid the sun and apply SPF daily.

Your Results — Brighter, Smoother, More Balanced Skin

Both IPL and PRP offer powerful, gradual improvements in pigmentation. Clients typically see brighter tone, fewer dark spots, and smoother texture over a series of sessions.

Long-Term Benefits:

  • Faded dark spots and discoloration
  • More even skin tone and texture
  • Smoother, refreshed appearance
  • Natural glow without harsh ingredients

Maintain your results with proper skincare, sun protection, and occasional follow-ups as needed.
