What Are Pigmentation Problems?
Pigmentation issues, like sun spots, age spots, and melasma, can be more than just a cosmetic concern — they often affect how we feel about our appearance. At Advanced Aesthetics, we understand that each spot on your skin requires a unique approach to treatment, and we’ll guide you through understanding and tackling pigmentation head-on.
Pigmentation is often the result of overexposure to the sun, hormonal changes, or even genetic factors. While avoiding the sun and using SPF can help prevent new spots from forming, what about the existing ones? That's where we step in.
Our expert team is committed to providing not just treatments but also education on how to maintain your results and prevent future pigmentation. Imagine looking in the mirror and seeing a more even-toned, radiant complexion staring back at you. It's not just a dream — it's a possibility with the right care and expertise.
At Advanced Aesthetics, your confidence is our priority. We're not just treating your skin; we're helping you embrace your beauty, spot by spot. Ready to see a clearer future? Let's talk about your skin’s story and how we can turn the page together.

Understanding your options is the first step towards getting that luminous, even-toned skin you dream of. Here’s a closer look at our top solutions:
PhotoFacial
A real game-changer for those looking to address pigmentation with minimal downtime. Using intense pulsed light (IPL) technology, PhotoFacial treatments target and break down the pigment in your skin, reducing the appearance of age spots, sun damage, and freckles.
This quick, process improves coloration and enhances skin texture, giving you a rejuvenated, youthful glow.
Fraxel Dual

Fraxel laser technology stimulates your skin's natural healing process, replacing damaged cells with fresh, radiant skin. It's ideal for tackling more pronounced pigmentation issues, scars, and fine lines.
With Fraxel Dual, you’re not just correcting — you’re transforming your skin on a cellular level.
Clear + Brilliant Touch
Looking for something innovative minimally invasive? Clear + Brilliant Touch is your answer. This advanced laser treatment is about precision and versatility, catering to various skin types and concerns.
Creating millions of microscopic treatment zones in your skin effectively fades pigmentation while enhancing overall skin tone and texture. It’s the perfect choice for those seeking noticeable results with minimal interruption to their daily life.
What Is the Treatment Time for Minimizing Pigmentation?
At Advanced Aesthetics, we believe in transparency and clarity at every step of your skin improvement journey—especially when it comes to how long it'll take to see the beautiful results of your pigmentation treatment.
Each treatment option at our Oklahoma City clinic is tailored to meet your unique skin needs, so the time to visible improvement can vary. Here's a straightforward look at what you can expect:
PhotoFacial
PhotoFacial sessions are in-office procedures that usually take about 60 – 75 minutes, including time for the patient to have topical numbing cream applied pre-procedure. Depending on your skin's condition and the extent of pigmentation, you may need more than one treatment spaced about four weeks apart.
Fraxel Dual
Depending on the treatment area, each in-office Fraxel Dual treatment can take about 90 minutes, including time for the patient to have topical numbing cream applied pre-procedure.
We generally advise two to three sessions, spaced four to six weeks apart, to see the best results.
Clear + Brilliant Touch
Clear + Brilliant Touch in-office treatments are typically completed in about 60 – 75 minutes, including time for the patient to have topical numbing cream applied pre-procedure.
We typically recommend a series of four to six sessions, spaced two to four weeks apart, for comprehensive results.
