Clearing Sun Damage and Uneven Pigmentation
Restoring a Bright, Even Complexion
The Biological Cause
Years of ultraviolet exposure prompt the skin to over-produce melanin as a defence, and that pigment collects unevenly near the surface as freckles, age spots, and mottled patches.
Mountain sun is deceptively strong and the damage is cumulative — much of it laid down long before it becomes visible. Left alone, these deposits make even healthy skin look older and duller than it is.
Our Clinical Approach
At Kootenay Cosmetic Clinic we clear that pigment with Lumecca, the most powerful intense pulsed light (IPL) available. Its light is absorbed by the excess melanin and breaks it apart, so the skin lifts it away over the following days to reveal a clearer, more even tone — results start often after a single session.
