FAQs
What is hyperpigmentation and what causes dark spots on the skin?
Hyperpigmentation is an overproduction or uneven distribution of melanin that results in dark spots or patches on the skin. Common triggers include UV exposure, inflammation (such as post-acne marks), hormonal changes, and aging.
What causes hyperpigmentation to worsen or return over time?
Ongoing UV exposure, inflammation, and inconsistent treatment can cause dark spots to deepen or reappear. Without daily sun protection and maintenance care, pigmentation concerns are more likely to persist or recur.
How do Dermalogica products treat hyperpigmentation and dark spots?
Dermalogica’s targeted brightening franchises combine corrective actives and skin-supporting technologies to help fade the appearance of existing dark spots and reduce the look of uneven tone. Collections such as PowerBright are formulated to address discoloration while supporting overall skin health.
Which ingredients are most effective for treating hyperpigmentation?
Commonly used brightening ingredients include Vitamin C derivatives, exfoliating acids (AHAs and BHAs), retinoids, tranexamic acid, and other tone-correcting actives. These ingredients help improve skin clarity and evenness when used consistently and appropriately.
How long does it take to see results from hyperpigmentation treatments?
Results vary based on the depth of pigmentation and consistency of use. Some surface discoloration may begin to improve within a few weeks, while longer-standing dark spots often take several months of daily treatment. Professional treatments can help accelerate visible results when paired with home care.
Do I need sunscreen when treating hyperpigmentation?
Yes. Daily broad‑spectrum sunscreen is essential when addressing hyperpigmentation. Sun exposure can darken existing spots and trigger new discoloration, making SPF a critical part of any brightening routine.
Can hyperpigmentation come back after treatment?
Yes. If triggers such as UV exposure or inflammation are not managed, hyperpigmentation can return. Ongoing use of sun protection and maintenance treatments help preserve results over time.
Can I combine brightening actives with retinoids or exfoliating acids?
Yes, but combinations should be introduced carefully to avoid irriation, which can worsen pigmentation. Most routines alternate actives or use them at different times of day. A professional skin therapist can help design a regimen that balances effectiveness with skin tolerance.
Are hyperpigmentation treatments safe for all skin tones?
When used correctly, brightening treatments can be suitable for all skin tones. Darker skin tones can be more prone to post‑inflammatory hyperpigmentation, so gradual introduction and professional guidance are recommended to minimize irritation.
What role do professional skin treatments play in treating hyperpigmentation?
Professional treatments can significantly enhance and accelerate results. Clinical protocols, such as Dermalogica’s Melanopro Peel System, are designed to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone when combined with a consistent at-home routine.

Hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone are among the most common skin concerns – often triggered by sun exposure, inflammation, or hormonal changes. These dark spots can appear as flat patches of discoloration, ranging from light brown to deep gray, depending on skin tone.

Our skin-brightening treatments are formulated to visibly fade the appearance of dark spots while supporting your skin’s natural barrier. Whether you’re targeting post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), sun damage, or melasma, ingredients like Niacinamide, Hexylresorcinol, and Vitamin C, help restore a more even, radiant complexion.

Dermalogica’s solutions are professional-grade, clinically tested, and suitable for all skin tones. For best results, pair brightening treatments with daily sun protection, and consistent use over time.
