What is Hyperpigmentation Treatment?
Hyperpigmentation is a widespread medical condition characterized by dark-colored patches that develop on the surface of the skin. These darkened spots can show up anywhere on the body and vary in size and shape. There are many different forms of hyperpigmentation, including melasma, which is thought to be caused by sun exposure or hormonal fluctuations. We treat hyperpigmentation and melasma routinely at Zula Modern Medspa using the Alma Harmony® XL PRO laser. As a skin rejuvenation option, laser-based melasma and hyperpigmentation treatments often minimize the appearance of dark patches and help refresh your general complexion. Please contact our office in Huntsville, AL for more information.

How Does Hyperpigmentation Treatment Work?
Laser melasma and hyperpigmentation treatment is a quick, easy process that usually takes about 30 minutes to complete at our Huntsville, AL office. Effective and safe for every skin type, the Harmony XL PRO works by using light energy in the targeted area to break down the excess melanin beneath the surface of the skin that causes hyperpigmentation.
While this is happening, the surface of the skin remains unharmed and as the laser energy is absorbed, you should notice a more even complexion over time. For the first week, however, the treatment area may get darker before it lightens up.
