Hyperpigmentation in the Heat? Here’s How Our Laser Treatments Can Help

If you’ve noticed melasma, sun spots, or uneven skin tone getting worse during the summer, you’re not imagining it. At Erase and Embrace Tattoo Removal in Temecula, we regularly treat clients who experience flare-ups in hyperpigmentation during warmer months. Here’s what’s really going on with your skin in the heat and how our advanced laser facial treatments can help restore a clear, even complexion.


Why Does Hyperpigmentation Get Worse in Summer?

Summer heat and UV exposure are major triggers for skin discoloration conditions like:

  • Melasma (hormonal pigmentation often on cheeks, forehead, or upper lip)
  • Lentigines (aka sun spots or age spots)
  • Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (dark spots from acne or skin injury)

Even with sunscreen, heat and visible light can stimulate excess melanin production, leading to patches that become darker, larger, and harder to conceal.


How Our Laser Treatments Safely Target Discoloration

At Erase and Embrace, we use Candela PicoWay®, a cutting-edge picosecond laser system that targets pigment beneath the skin with ultra-short pulses of energy. Unlike older laser technologies, PicoWay®:

  • Breaks up pigment without damaging surrounding tissue
  • Requires minimal downtime—perfect for busy summer schedules
  • Is safe for most skin tones when performed by trained professionals

We also customize each laser facial or pigmentation treatment based on your skin type, history, and lifestyle—ensuring you get effective results while reducing unnecessary risk.


Summer Skincare + Laser = Your Best Glow Yet

For the best outcomes, we combine laser treatments with professional skincare guidance, including:

  • Mineral sunscreen with iron oxide (protects against UV + visible light)
  • Antioxidants like Vitamin C to brighten and repair
  • Gentle exfoliants and pigment regulators to prevent recurrence

We often recommend a series of sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart for optimal fading of hyperpigmentation.
