What Is Hyperpigmentation?
Hyperpigmentation is a common skin condition where patches of skin become darker than the surrounding area due to excess melanin production. It can affect any skin type and appears in several forms:
Sun Spots (Age Spots) — flat, darkened patches caused by years of UV exposure, commonly appearing on the face, hands, and shoulders.
Melasma — larger areas of brown or grayish pigmentation often triggered by hormonal changes, pregnancy, or sun exposure. Melasma is most common on the cheeks, forehead, and upper lip.
Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH) — dark marks left behind after acne, injury, or skin inflammation. PIH is especially common in medium to darker skin tones.
The good news? All three can be effectively treated at Royal You Med Spa in Madison WI.
Our Hyperpigmentation Treatments
PicoWay Laser — Advanced Pigment Correction
The Candela PicoWay® laser is one of the most advanced pigment correction technologies available today. Using ultra-short picosecond pulses, PicoWay targets excess melanin in the skin and shatters it into tiny particles that your body naturally eliminates — without damaging the surrounding skin.
PicoWay is safe for all skin tones and highly effective for treating sun spots, melasma, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Treatments are quick, comfortable, and require minimal downtime.
Glytone Chemical Peels — Brighten & Even Your Skin Tone
Our Glytone Chemical Peels offer a powerful complement to laser treatment for hyperpigmentation. Medical-grade chemical peels work by gently exfoliating the outer layers of skin, encouraging cell turnover and fading dark spots over time.
For hyperpigmentation we commonly recommend:
- Jessner Bright + Clear Peel — targets stubborn pigmentation and uneven tone
- Triple Bright Renewal Peel — ideal for advanced sun damage and discoloration
- Glycolic Signature 30 Peel — improves skin tone and early sun damage

Botox FAQs
How many PicoWay sessions will I need for sun spots?
Most patients see significant improvement in 2–4 sessions. The number depends on the type, depth, and severity of pigmentation.
Is PicoWay laser safe for darker skin tones?
Yes. PicoWay is one of the few lasers safe and effective for all skin tones, including medium and darker complexions.
What is the difference between melasma and sun spots?
Sun spots are caused by UV exposure and appear as distinct flat dark patches. Melasma is a deeper, more diffuse pigmentation often linked to hormonal changes and can be more complex to treat.
Can hyperpigmentation come back after treatment?
It can, especially melasma which is hormonally driven. Daily SPF and a consistent skincare routine are essential to maintaining results. Dr. Ruiz will guide you on aftercare.
Is there downtime after Botox?
Downtime is minimal for most treatments. PicoWay may cause mild redness for a day or two. Chemical peels may cause light flaking for several days depending on the strength used.
Can I combine PicoWay and Glytone peels?
Yes — in fact combining both treatments often delivers the best results. Dr. Ruiz will advise on the right sequence and timing for your skin.
