Dark spots can be frustrating, especially when they seem to stick around despite your best efforts. Dr. Heather Woolery-Lloyd joins us to break down what causes hyperpigmentation, the differences between melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and sunspots, and how dermatologists approach treatment.

We discuss the role of sunscreen, visible light, hydroquinone alternatives, chemical peels, and evidence-based skincare ingredients that can help fade discoloration. If you're tired of guessing what works, this episode offers a practical roadmap to treating hyperpigmentation more effectively.
