How to effectively treat hyperpigmentation

Statistics show that hyperpigmentation is a skin condition that concerns 43% of women in the UK – and with Google searches for ‘hyperpigmentation’ increasing by 140% in 2021, there is a real opportunity for salon owners to offer a professional solution to this common skin problem.

Hyperpigmentation is a result of excess melanin production, causing dark patches to appear on the skin – and if you are looking for profitable ways in which to treat hyperpigmentation in your salon or clinic – then we have some useful advice for you…

Which aesthetic protocols are best at treating hyperpigmentation?

Microdermabrasion: This effective hyperpigmentation treatment uses a vibrating handpiece with a ceramic-quartz head to push skin impurities to the surface and dislodge dead skin cells. Our LumiHYDRO device includes a handpiece that is used to deeply cleanse and gently exfoliate the epidermis. It’s a progressive treatment that offers a safe way to reduce the effects of hyperpigmentation – and leaves your client’s skin feeling rejuvenated and smooth.

Hydrodermabrasion: Also known as ‘The Celebrity Facial’, this non-invasive procedure uses water and oxygen to effortlessly exfoliate the skin and minimise the effects of hyperpigmentation. The LumiHYDRO device includes a hydro-extraction tip with a unique spiral design to produce a vortex that dislodges blackheads and flushes impurities to deep-clean pores and leave your client with blemish-free skin.

Dynamic Pulsed Light (DPL): DPL offers an alternative, non-invasive hyperpigmentation treatment that can also revive dull, tired skin. This innovative technology passes an electric current through a flashlamp, where a mirror redirects the light directly onto the skin to create a photothermal effect in the tissue. Our LumiLITE device uses different wavelengths to effectively treat a range of skin conditions, including hyperpigmentation, making LumiLITE a versatile addition to your salon or clinic.

Choose the right devices to treat hyperpigmentation

There are many devices on the market, all claiming to offer effective treatment for hyperpigmentation.

But with our experience in the beauty industry, we decided to create a new and innovative device – the LumiHYDRO – that offers eight protocols in one, meaning that salon owners could offer more treatments for an array of skin concerns in one profitable space-saving and compact device.

We also pioneered the LumiLITE, which combines skin rejuvenation and hair removal into one machine. Performing over ten different treatments, including permanent hair reduction, vascular lesions, pigmentation & skin rejuvenation, you’ll get more for your investment and can upgrade your treatment menu with ease.

Advice for your clients

One of the best ways to prevent hyperpigmentation is to advise your customers to apply an SPF all year round. The sun doesn’t have to be shining for UV rays to cause damage to our skin, so make sure your clients are protecting their complexion every day.

Our skincare shop has a range of replenishing SPF 30+ and SPF 40+ sunscreens that feature ingredients such as transparent zinc oxide to protect against UVA / UVB rays to provide daily protection. Join the many salon owners who already stock our sunscreens in their salons and use them in their treatment protocols by becoming a LumiSKN member.
