Uneven Skin Texture

What Is Uneven Skin Texture?

If there’s a skin concern that’s more frustrating than uneven skin tone, it would probably be uneven skin texture. It’s something that can put a damper on one’s self-esteem and can make one incredibly self-conscious. Unlike hyperpigmentation, uneven skin texture is more difficult to conceal with makeup and can sometimes be impossible to address at home using drugstore skincare products alone.

Uneven skin texture is a result of excessive buildup of dead skin cells on the skin’s surface. It’s the reason why the skin feels dry, rough, bumpy, and dull-looking. The most culpable reasons why you have uneven skin texture are:

• Genetics
• Excessive exposure to sun damage
• Environmental toxins
• Severe acne scarring
• Aging
• Inappropriate skincare routine/product usage

Top Treatments for Uneven Skin Texture

Effectively addressing uneven skin texture requires a combination of in-clinic cosmetic procedures and dermatologist-approved skincare routines involving medical-grade products. Here are some of the latest uneven skin texture treatments offered at APT medspa in Oakville:

Clinical Peels

Clinical peels or chemical peels are types of exfoliating treatments designed to refresh and rejuvenate the skin’s natural health. There are different types of clinical peels depending on the active ingredient used and the depth of peeling involved. The deeper the peel, the more dramatic results you can expect.

They show promising results as an uneven skin texture treatment because they can get rid of layers upon layers of dead skin cells, revealing a baby-soft complexion and luminous glow once the skin has fully healed. In addition, getting clinical peels is a smart anti-aging strategy because they stimulate natural collagen production.

Laser Skin Resurfacing Treatments

Laser skin resurfacing generally uses an intense light beam to target and correct visible skin damage accurately. There are two types of laser treatments: ablative and non-ablative lasers, also known as fractional skin resurfacing. 

APT Medical Aesthetics is pleased to offer both laser skin resurfacing technologies to treat uneven skin texture and other beauty and skin concerns.

• Clear + Brilliant® – is a revolutionary laser-based therapy that can be used anywhere on the face, neck, chest, arms, or the back of the hands. A truly impressive treatment for uneven skin texture, it can also minimize the size of enlarged pores, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, clear pimples and breakouts, and give you a youthful radiance. 
• Halo™ Hybrid Fractional Laser – virtually eliminates years of damage and neglect by accurately targeting the right depth and restoring the luminous glow you had when you were younger. It boasts of intelligent energy delivery and a Dynamic Thermal Optimization feature that guarantees precision, safety, and consistent results. Halo™ also promises a more painless and comfortable treatment compared to other traditional laser resurfacing options.

Microneedling

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy (CIT), is one of the most promising skin rejuvenation treatments. It’s a gentle and non-invasive procedure that creates controlled micro-injuries to encourage the skin’s natural repair process and healthy production of essential skin proteins, collagen and elastin. Microneedling stimulates cell regeneration and replaces old, damaged skin cells with new ones, giving you healthy, plump and youthful skin.

Results You Can Expect

Different treatments for uneven skin texture offer different results. 

• Chemical Peels – Chemical peels reveal astonishing results once the peeling has stopped and the skin has healed completely. Clients see their skin has remarkably improved as their once dark and coarse skin has become lighter and smoother, with imperfections barely visible.
• Clear + Brilliant® – A single session of Clear + Brilliant® laser skin resurfacing in Oakville can deliver noticeable results instantly and progressive results in a matter of 1 to 2 weeks. You’ll see that your skin is clearer, brighter, smoother than ever.
• Halo™ – Expect a clearer and brighter complexion post-treatment. There may be slight redness, but it will clear up on its own after a few hours. You’ll notice that your skin has become silky smooth to touch with a luminous glow from within – but that’s not all. Because Halo™ effectively stimulates collagen production in the deeper layers of skin, you can expect to see more enhancements, called dermal regeneration, after a month or up to six months. 
• Microneedling – The final results of microneedling can be spotted at least 4 to 6 weeks after the initial treatment. Eliminate uneven skin texture, enlarged pores, as well as notable improvements in acne scars as you continue with regular treatments.

How Long Do Treatment Results Last?

• Chemical Peel lasts about 2 to 6 months
• Clear + Brilliant lasts several months up to a year
• Halo™ lasts 6 months up to a year
• Microneedling  – The initial results last 4 to 6 weeks while succeeding treatments last longer up to 8 to 12 weeks.
