  • Topical Treatments: Includes medical-grade creams with hydroquinone or retinoids to gradually lighten dark spots.
  • PRP Microneedling: Combines microneedling with platelet-rich plasma to stimulate collagen, improve skin texture, and help reduce pigmentation for a clearer, more even complexion.
