What is hyperpigmentation?
Hyperpigmentation is a skin condition in which areas of the skin become darker than the surrounding skin. Age spots, also known as “liver” spots, are a common form of hyperpigmentation found on the hands, face or other sun-exposed areas of the skin.
What causes hyperpigmentation?
Most forms of hyperpigmentation are harmless. There can be several causes of hyperpigmentation. Acne and other injuries to the skin can leave dark spots on the skin after it clears.
Sun exposure is another leading cause of hyperpigmentation. Melanin in the skin absorbs the ultraviolet rays from the sun to protect the skin from overexposure. When this occurs, freckles and other darkened areas may appear. Broad spectrum sunscreen can help prevent skin damage and hyperpigmentation caused by sun exposure.
Hormonal changes, especially in women, can cause melasma or chloasma spots. Pregnancy, birth control pills and menopause can lead to an overproduction of melanin, resulting in darkened skin on the face and abdomen.

What are some traditional treatments for hyperpigmentation?
IPL Photofacial treatment uses pulsed light to penetrate the skin. Collagen and blood vessels constrict beneath the skin to tighten skin, reducing redness and lines. The procedure lasts for about 30 minutes and the benefits typically appear gradually.
Chemical peels involve the application of alpha hydroxyl acids (AHA), trichloroacetic acid (TCA), or phenol to the skin. The acid application exfoliates dead skin layers to improve texture and tone.
I'm so happy that this place is in business. Its very beautiful and clean, they have a relaxed environment.The staff is friendly and they answered all my questions with ease and knowledge.I have had Botox, fillers sculpture with excellent results. Along with IPL, B12 & Lipo shots, and the Diamond Tip treatments do wonders for my skin. Lastly the Laser no pain treatment for my neckseems to help my neck look better.That's a plus plus…Doctor is amazing along with his entire staff. All are very professional and I continue to come back on a regular basis getting touch ups so I can look and feel my best. I'm very pleased with my results. I highly recommend this place. Give it a try you will not be sorry.

Best place!! I will never go anywhere else! Dr Sameer has a true gift and an "eye" for aesthetics! I always leave 110% satisfied. He always listens and works within what your budget is. He has the most kind bedside manner and all of his team are so friendly as well and do their best to not "break your pocketbook." Dr Sameer always is knowledgeable on the latest procedures and will educate you about them but never is pushy about anything. I would highly recommend him and this MedSpa to everyone!
I strongly recommend Sky Balance Med Spa for a wide range of cosmetic treatments. Sky Balance offers great promotions and affordable prices. The staff is very skilled and knowledgeable. I am always satisfied with the results. I definitely plan to return to Sky Balance for all of the great things it has to offer!
Truly the best place ever. I'm so glad I found this place. Only had a couple cosmetic things done in years past, which didn't go so well, and was afraid to ever try again. I'm glad I gave it a chance. They are always so friendly and informative, and the staff is amazing. Dr. Sameer Naseeruddin is an MD, so for my particular medical situations, it definitely helps that he knows from a true medical standpoint what should and should not be done for me. His prices are amazing, specials are offered quite often, and he never tries to oversell or push services for the sake of profit. He truly cares about the best results. I love that I can trust him completely, he's even told me no before, which sealed the deal for me. He's the only doctor I will ever use for anything cosmetic from now on.
