Common Sun Damage & Dark Spot Concerns We Treat
Best Treatments for Sun Damage & Dark Spots
Sun damage and dark spots can be treated in different ways depending on the type of pigmentation, depth of discolouration, skin tone, and overall skin health. At Divine & Free, we offer personalized treatment options designed to reduce the look of dark spots, improve uneven tone, brighten the complexion, and support clearer, healthier-looking skin.
Intense Pulsed Light
Best for sun spots, age spots, hyperpigmentation, redness, rosacea, broken capillaries, and uneven skin tone. IPL uses advanced light technology to target pigmentation and vascular concerns beneath the skin’s surface without harming the surrounding skin.
Clear + Brilliant®
Best for mild sun damage, uneven tone, dullness, texture concerns, early signs of aging, and maintaining a bright, refreshed complexion. Clear + Brilliant® is a gentle fractional laser treatment that creates microscopic treatment zones in the upper layers of the skin to support natural skin renewal.
AlumierMD™ Chemical Peels
Best for hyperpigmentation, uneven skin tone, sun damage, acne marks, dullness, texture concerns, and fine lines. AlumierMD™ Chemical Peels use medical-grade exfoliation to support cellular turnover and reveal fresher, brighter-looking skin.
Microneedling
Best for hyperpigmentation, post-acne marks, uneven texture, enlarged pores, fine lines, and overall skin renewal. Microneedling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy, uses medical-grade microneedles to create tiny controlled micro-injuries in the skin.
Not Sure Which Treatment Is Right?
Sun damage and dark spots do not all come from the same cause. That is why the best treatment plan starts with a proper consultation.
If your concerns include visible sun spots, redness, broken capillaries, or photoaging, IPL may be the right fit. If your skin is dull, uneven, or showing early signs of aging, Clear + Brilliant® may be recommended. If your concerns include pigmentation, acne marks, texture, or uneven tone, an AlumierMD™ Chemical Peel may be part of your plan.
At Divine & Free, your treatment is customized to your skin, your goals, and your comfort level.

FAQs
The best treatment depends on the type of pigmentation and what is causing it.
IPL is often recommended for sun spots, redness, broken capillaries, and signs of photoaging. Clear + Brilliant® can help improve overall skin tone and radiance, while microneedling supports skin renewal and can help reduce the appearance of certain types of pigmentation over time. AlumierMD™ Chemical Peels promote healthy cellular turnover, helping to brighten the complexion and gradually improve uneven pigmentation. During your consultation, we'll determine the underlying cause of your pigmentation and recommend the most effective treatment—or combination of treatments—for your skin.
Yes, IPL can help reduce the appearance of dark spots, sun damage, age spots, and hyperpigmentation. After treatment, dark spots may temporarily darken before flaking or shedding away as the skin renews.
Yes, chemical peels can help improve the look of sun damage, uneven tone, pigmentation, and dullness by exfoliating the skin and supporting cellular turnover. AlumierMD™ peels are customized based on your skin type, concerns, and goals.
Downtime depends on the treatment. IPL may cause temporary redness, tenderness, or darkening of pigment for a few days. Clear + Brilliant® typically has minimal downtime, while chemical peels may cause mild redness, dryness, or subtle peeling as the skin renews.
The number of treatments depends on your skin, the type of pigmentation, and your goals. Some clients notice improvement after one treatment, but a series of treatments is often recommended for more noticeable and lasting results.
