Basics & Logistics.

  • What can I expect from a chemical peel before and after treatment?

    Chemical peels are one of the most trusted treatments for brightening dull, uneven skin. Before your peel, we prep your skin with a gentle cleanse and may recommend pausing active ingredients (like retinoids) a few days prior. The peel itself may cause mild tingling, and afterward, you can expect some flaking or peeling for a few days, depending on the strength.

    After the shedding phase, most clients notice a visible improvement in brightness, smoother texture, and a refreshed glow. With repeated sessions, dark spots, acne marks, and sun damage continue to fade.

Areas & Uses.

  • How does a skin brightening treatment improve uneven tone?

    Skin brightening treatments, like peels, topical agents, or lasers, target excess melanin (pigment) that causes uneven patches. Whether it’s due to sun damage, post-acne marks, or hormonal changes, these treatments help to break up melanin clusters, exfoliate dull surface skin, and stimulate cell turnover so brighter, healthier skin can shine through.
    We often combine modalities, like a light chemical peel with antioxidant serums, for faster, more radiant results.

  • Is skin brightening laser recommended for hyperpigmentation?

    Yes laser is recommended for most hyperpigmentation, but not all types. We assess your type of hyperpigmentation in our consultation and decide which treatment is best there.

  • What are the best options for long-lasting skin brightening?

    All of our skin brightening options yield great results so long as they are adequate for your type of skin and pigment. In order to have long lasting results, consistency with maintenance treatments and at home products is key.

  • Is skin brightening treatment targeted for skin discoloration on legs?

    Yes, Our brightening treatment can work on any area that is not considered mucous membranes i.e. lips  or intimate area.

  • Is glycolic acid peel a good option for treating uneven skin tone?

    Yes, this peel focuses on exfoliating dead skin cells that make our skin dull and uneven.

Results & Timing.

  • How effective is skin brightening soap for daily use?

    Skin brightening soaps can help maintain results but shouldn’t be your only method. The best ones contain ingredients like kojic acid, arbutin, or licorice extract, which gently reduce surface-level pigmentation. They’re great for upkeep between professional treatments, but on their own, results will be slow and subtle.
    We always recommend using a brightening soap as part of a larger routine, paired with SPF, antioxidants, and monthly treatments if you’re targeting dark spots.

  • What changes should I expect with skin lightening before and after sessions?

    Before your sessions, we’ll take photos and assess your tone. After just a few treatments, most clients notice fading of hyperpigmented areas, more even tone, and a smoother glow overall. Results are progressive, not instant, but they are real. Brighter skin often looks healthier, younger, and more vibrant. Many clients tell us they wear less makeup afterward.

  • How many sessions are needed to reduce hyperpigmentation legs?

    Every case is different, most cases need between 4-6 sessions for our initial treatment plan.

Payments and financing.

  • Does the price of a chemical peel vary depending on the skin concern or area?

    It does. Chemical peels are customized based on:
    • Skin condition (acne, melasma, discoloration)
    • Depth of the peel (superficial, medium, or deep)
    • Area treated (full face, underarms, back, bikini, etc.)
    Every peel comes with personalized prep and aftercare recommendations.

Safety & Side-Effects.

  • Is genital lightening safe and what results can I expect?

    Yes,when done properly and professionally, genital or intimate lightening is safe. At Perfect B, we use medical-grade, pH-balanced products specifically formulated for delicate skin. We never use bleach or harsh agents.
    Most patients notice gradual brightening over a series of sessions (typically 4–6), with reduced pigmentation and a more even tone. It’s gentle, effective, and confidence-boosting.

  • Is skin brightening safe for all skin types?

    Some lasers may be too strong for darker or more sensitive skin types, in this case we opt for other treatments such as chemical peels or alternate lasers. We have options for all types of pigment.

Safety and technology.

  • How does a skin brightening laser work on dark spots?

    Lasers like IPL or Pico lasers work by sending targeted energy into the skin, where it shatters pigment clusters without damaging surrounding tissue. These broken pigment particles are then gradually cleared by your body’s natural processes.
    We love using this for deeper pigment like sun spots, or even resistant acne marks. Most clients see visible lightening after 2–3 sessions.
