Deep Dive: Treating Pigmentation & Brightening Skin in Winter
At Tahnee Raine, one of the most common concerns we hear from clients is pigmentation, whether it’s sun damage, melasma, hormonal changes, or post-inflammatory marks from acne or skin trauma.
Why winter is the ideal time to treat pigmentation
The cooler months offer a natural advantage: UV exposure is significantly lower. That means we can safely treat the skin with less risk of pigment stimulation or rebound. It also helps us lock in results while protecting your progress.
Our pigment protocol begins with:
Understanding your pigmentation type
Not all pigment is created equal. Our consultations help determine whether it’s superficial or deeper dermal pigment, and guide us toward the right combination of treatments.
Targeted treatment options may include:
• Clinical peels to lift and resurface
• LED light therapy for repair and inflammation reduction
• Skin needling for collagen stimulation and pigment disruption
• Prescription and cosmeceutical skincare with brightening actives like niacinamide, vitamin C, and pigment blockers
Maintenance, SPF, and patience
Pigmentation often builds over time, so it’s important to manage expectations and stay consistent. We’ll build a plan that’s as realistic as it is effective.
