Illuminate Your Skin: Targeted Solutions for a Radiant, Even Complexion
Dark spots, dullness, and uneven tone aren’t just skin issues—they can dim your glow and chip away at your confidence. At Chicago Facial in Chicago, IL, we’re here to change that. Our advanced treatments are designed to target hyperpigmentation at the source, helping you reclaim a clear, luminous complexion that looks as vibrant as you feel.
Understanding Hyperpigmentation and Dark Spots
Hyperpigmentation occurs when excess melanin—the pigment responsible for skin color—is produced in certain areas, leading to dark spots or patches. Common causes include:
Sun Exposure
UV rays stimulate melanin production, leading to sunspots.
Hormonal Changes
Fluctuations, such as those during pregnancy or from contraceptive use, can cause melasma.
Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation
Dark spots that develop after skin inflammation or injury, like acne.
Aging
Natural aging processes can lead to the appearance of age spots.

At Chicago Facial, we provide a range of specialized treatments tailored to combat hyperpigmentation and promote an even skin tone:

Choosing the Right Treatment
Selecting the most suitable treatment depends on individual skin concerns, type, and desired outcomes. A consultation with our skincare specialists at Chicago Facial will help determine the best approach tailored to your needs.
Questions? We Have Answers
How do I know which treatment is right for me?
Our skincare experts will assess your skin and discuss your goals to recommend the most appropriate treatment.
Are these treatments safe for all skin types?
Yes, we offer treatments suitable for various skin types. However, individual consultations ensure the best match for your skin’s needs.
Is there any downtime associated with these treatments?
Downtime varies by treatment. Some procedures may have minimal to no downtime, while others may require a short recovery period, especially those involving needling or deeper exfoliation. We’ll walk you through exactly what to expect based on your chosen treatment.
How soon will I see results?
Some treatments offer immediate brightness and texture improvement, while others—like microneedling or nano-needling—produce more visible results after a few days or weeks as collagen builds and pigmentation fades. A full series of treatments often yields the best results for deeper pigmentation.
Can I combine multiple treatments for faster results?
Absolutely. Many of our clients benefit from a combination of therapies—for example, pairing dermaplaning with LED light therapy or following a nano-needling session with an oxygen facial. During your consultation, we’ll create a customized plan tailored to your skin goals.
Are these treatments permanent?
While the results can be long-lasting, ongoing maintenance is key—especially if your pigmentation is caused by sun exposure or hormones. Regular facials, medical-grade skincare, and SPF protection will help you preserve results.
Will these treatments help with melasma?
Melasma can be more complex to treat than other forms of hyperpigmentation, but many of the above treatments—like LED therapy and microchanneling—can improve its appearance when paired with the right skincare. We’ll guide you toward the safest and most effective options.
