Types of Skin brightening Treatments Offered at Skin Vibes Clinic

Now that you know we personalize care, let’s dive into the various treatments we offer to address pigmentation and uneven skin tone.

Chemical Peels

Our skin specialist applies medical-grade peels formulated with glycolic acid, lactic acid, or kojic acid to exfoliate the skin gently. This removes dead cells and stimulates fresh cell turnover, reducing pigmentation and improving brightness.

Laser Skin Toning (Q-Switched Nd:YAG Laser)

This non-invasive laser penetrates deeper layers of the skin to break down melanin clusters. The cosmetologist precisely targets pigmented areas, achieving even tone and radiance over time.

Microneedling (Dermapen 4)

Tiny micro-injuries stimulate collagen production and allow deep penetration of lightening agents like Vitamin C and tranexamic acid, giving your skin a more uniform and luminous tone.


HydraFacial with Brightening Boosters

Our in-clinic facial combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, and infusion of brightening serums enriched with peptides, vitamin C, and niacinamide to boost radiance instantly.

Glutathione IVs

A popular systemic skin-lightening method, these antioxidant-rich injections help detoxify the body and reduce melanin production, promoting brighter, more glowing skin from within.


Dermapen4 for Skin Lightening

This involves microinjections of cocktails containing skin-brightening ingredients directly into the dermis to reduce pigmentation and improve texture.
