Pigmentation & Sun Damage Treatment in Moncton & Dieppe

Pigmentation can be caused by UV exposure, heat, inflammation, acne, hormones, genetics, skin injury, medications, and skin type. Sun spots, brown spots, freckles, melasma, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation can behave differently, so consultation matters.

Sparkle may support selected brown spots, sun spots, age spots, melasma, hormonal pigmentation, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, acne marks, uneven tone, freckles, café-au-lait macules, and red or brown acne scars.

The source page includes Nordlys Frax + IPL, PicoWay, GentleMax Pro, and medical-grade skincare. Observ Skin Analysis is also referenced for assessing pigmentation at the surface and below.

PicoWay may be considered for selected pigment concerns because it uses ultra-short pulse technology. It can be part of a pigment plan, but candidacy depends on skin type, pigment type, tan status, medications, and risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

IPL may be considered for selected sun spots, brown spots, redness, and uneven tone concerns. It is not appropriate for every client or pigment pattern or pigment type, and it requires careful sun avoidance and aftercare.

No laser or IPL treatment should be described as appropriate for every client without assessment. Sparkle has multiple technology options, but suitability depends on Fitzpatrick skin type, active tan, pigmentation history, medications, melasma risk, and provider assessment.

The source page states most clients invest in a series of 3–6 treatments. The exact number depends on pigment type, depth, skin type, treatment choice, response, sun exposure, and maintenance.

The source page states pigmentation treatments start at $450 per session, with packages available for added savings.

Pigmentation can return, especially with sun exposure, heat, hormonal triggers, inflammation, or inconsistent skincare. SPF, maintenance, and homecare are key parts of long-term management.

Downtime varies by treatment. IPL may cause temporary redness, warmth, swelling, or pigment darkening/flaking. PicoWay and GentleMax Pro may have different recovery profiles. Follow your provider’s aftercare instructions.

Medical-grade skincare may include pigment-regulating ingredients, antioxidants, retinoids, exfoliants, brightening agents, and daily SPF. The source page references ZO, SkinMedica, and Vivier.

Treatment may need to be delayed or modified if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, recently tanned or sunburned, taking photosensitizing medication, have an active skin condition in the area, or have uncertain/changing lesions that need medical assessment.
