Uneven Skin Tone & Texture


The are many things that contribute to an even complexion, including the amount of collagen and elastin present in the skin. These tiny proteins give the skin its tone and texture and can be affected by diet, age, hormones and overall health. There are also environmental factors to consider such as wind, dirt, climate, smoking, pollution and ultraviolet rays, which will cause sun damage. All of these elements can destroy the skin’s natural collagen and elastin fibers causing the appearance of dry, rough, uneven toned skin. Specific skin disorders such as acne and rosacea can also contribute to the skin’s appearance and cause blotchiness and uneven skin texture.

There are a number of steps that will help to achieve smooth skin and a brightened complexion.

Cleanse and Moisturize- it is important to free the skin of excess oil and debris to allow the skin to look and feel better. It is also important to keep the skin hydrated by using a daily moisturizer.

Exfoliate- simple cleansing is not always enough to improve the skin’s texture. Exfoliation helps remove excess skin, oil, and dirt from the top layer of skin making it less prone to roughness and breakouts. In spa treatments like microdermabrasion or glycolic peels can help smooth and brighten the skin. Laser treatments such as laser Genesis and IPL can also improve skin tone and texture.

Protect- Sun damage is among one of the leading causes to uneven tone and texture. Therefore, it is crucial to protect your skin by wearing sunscreen everyday - all year round, even on cloudy days. Derma Spa recommends a full spectrum SPF 30.
