Our number one concern and request from many of our clients is to get rid of the hyperpigmentation. Hyperpigmentation is classified as darkened areas on the face - produced by an overproduction of melanin and can be brown, black, grey, red, or pink. Pigmentation can be caused by the skins reaction to inflammation - wether it be from UV rays, or from a breakout. Melanosomes are sent to protect the cells nucleus from damage. Hyperpigmentation can get worse with exposure to the sun, hormones, heat, or harsh ingredients that irritate the skin. This concern can also be tricky to treat, as it takes time, proper skincare, and treatments that won't make it worse. A great way to measure how quickly you can rid your pigmentation is how long you’ve had it.

For example, you’ve been dealing with a dark spot for 3 months, and you’ve finally decided to get products to help reduce it, typically at the 3-month mark is when you may start to see it reduced (depending on the product and the active ingredient).

When deciding on the right products, you first have to look at the right ingredients. What does the product contain that will help reduce hyperpigmentation. You'll want to increase cellular turnover, incorporate tyrosinase inhibitors, and brighten the skin.

Here’s a look at some key ingredients that are safe for all skin types and will target pigmentation:

  • Arbutin

  • Kojic Acid

  • Licorice Root Extract

  • Azelaic Acid

  • Vitamin C

  • Niacinamide

  • Retinoids

  • Mequinol

  • Soy proteins

  • N-Acetylglycosamine

Now let's take a look at some of GLOW’s skincare products that contains some of these amazing ingredients:

Are your skin concerns piling up one after the other? Looking for a total do-over? We’ve got you covered!

Here at GLOW, we are constantly searching for the most effective products and treatments to bring to you - and we’re confident that we’ve found a gem! 

The Dr. Schrammek Green Peel is an all natural peel comprised of herbs, enzymes and plant-derived nutrients that are designed to regenerate, renew and refresh your skin in ONE shot. This treatment targets everything from over-active sebum production, to pigmentation, and unwanted signs of aging. By going deep into the skin, we are able to stimulate detoxifying and regenerative processes that prevent our skin concerns from reoccurring, while combatting pre-existing concerns as well. 



With this treatment, you will notice an increased circulation to the overall facial area promoting brightness and lustre, the elimination of pigmentation, increase of collagen synthesis and skin strength that will lessen the appearance of lines, improved texture, and a carried-out comedolytic effect that will unclog and prevent the clogging of sebaceous glands going forward - restricting future acneic outbursts. This peel really does it all! 


The beauty is that we can design a treatment plan that is fully customizable to you. Whether we take it low and slow, or deep and fast, will determine how much you peel and how quickly you see results. But let me assure you, the results are inevitable and ten-fold - you will come running back for more!


Ask us about the Green Peel treatment at your next consultation if you’re looking for a complete detox that will regenerate and give your skin the boost it needs to reset!
