Skin Tone
Uneven skin tone is one of those concerns that is easy to attribute to just getting older, but it is almost always driven by something specific, whether that is cumulative sun exposure, redness from broken capillaries, post inflammatory marks or a general slowing of cell turnover. Identifying the primary driver is what determines the most effective treatment, and it is where every conversation at Bella Sante MD starts.
FAQs on Skin Tone
The most common causes are sun exposure, post inflammatory pigmentation from acne or injury, redness from rosacea or broken capillaries, and the general slowdown of cell turnover that comes with aging. Knowing which of these is driving your specific concerns shapes the entire treatment approach.
Yes. Treatments like Intense Pulsed Light (BBL)™ and VBeam require no downtime at all and can produce meaningful improvements in tone and clarity. For more significant concerns, options with a short recovery period tend to deliver more dramatic results.
Results vary by treatment and how well the skin is protected afterward. Collagen stimulating treatments like CO2 Laser can deliver long lasting improvements, while light based treatments may benefit from periodic maintenance.
It depends on what is driving the unevenness and how significant it is. Some patients see meaningful improvement after a single session, while others benefit from a short course of treatments. We will give you a clear plan at your consultation.
