Sun Damage Treatments We Offer
Lasers & Devices
Fraxel Dual/Fraxel Repair
Fraxel technology combats years of sun exposure. This treatment reduces sun spots and evens out skin tone. Patients often notice smoother skin texture and diminished fine lines caused by UV damage.
BBL Hero
BBL Hero rapidly treats extensive sun damage. It covers large areas affected by UV exposure in less time than traditional methods. Patients often report a more even skin tone and reduced sun spots after treatment.
Clear + Brilliant
Clear + Brilliant gently treats sun damage. It gradually fades existing sun spots while helping prevent new ones. The quick procedure and minimal recovery time make it popular for ongoing sun protection.
AdvaLight
Advalight tackles multiple effects of sun exposure simultaneously. It addresses both pigmentation issues and visible blood vessels caused by UV damage. This approach can lead to fewer overall treatments for sun-damaged skin.
Pico
Pico technology targets stubborn sun damage. It breaks down pigment clusters from years of UV exposure. Many patients see significant improvement in sun-related skin issues after just a few sessions.
VariLite
VariLite targets various levels of sun damage. It can treat both surface discoloration and deeper pigmentation issues caused by UV exposure. The treatment helps restore a more even skin tone affected by years in the sun.
Topicals
We don’t just treat sun damage in the office – we’ve got you covered at home too. Dr. Brunner creates custom topical formulas using ingredients like tranexamic acid, kojic acid, and hydroquinone to tackle sun spots and uneven skin tone.

Sun Damage Treatment FAQ
How long until I see results from my sun damage treatment?
You’ll likely notice your skin improving within 2-4 weeks after your first treatment. Over the next 2-3 months, you’ll see even more changes as your skin heals and renews itself. Your body will make new collagen and elastin, replacing damaged skin cells with fresh, healthy ones.
Will the treatment hurt?
Most of our patients tell us it feels like a quick snap of a rubber band on their skin. Many people find the treatment surprisingly easy to tolerate, and some even find it relaxing! We’ll apply a numbing cream before we start to keep you comfortable.
How many treatments will I need to reverse sun damage?
The number of treatments depends on your unique situation – how much sun damage you have, your skin type, and what results you’re hoping for. Most people see great results after 3-5 treatments, spaced about 4-6 weeks apart. During your initial consultation, we’ll create a personalized plan just for your skin.
Can sun damage treatments get rid of my deep wrinkles?
You’ll definitely see improvement in fine lines, skin texture, and overall skin quality. The treatments boost your collagen production, which helps plump up your skin and smooth out shallow wrinkles. But for deeper wrinkles, we might recommend combining this treatment with other procedures like dermal fillers or a facelift.
Will my skin be extra sensitive to the sun after treatment?
Yes, your skin will be more sensitive for a few weeks after each treatment. It’s really important to avoid direct sun exposure during this time. Make sure you’re using a high-SPF, broad-spectrum sunscreen every day.
What side effects should I expect?
Most people experience some redness, mild swelling, and some peeling for a few days after treatment. In rare cases, you might see some temporary changes in skin color, but these usually fade over time. We’ll give you detailed instructions on how to care for your skin post-treatment to minimize side effects and speed up healing.
Can these treatments help with my melasma?
Yes, certain sun damage treatments can be effective for melasma. But melasma can be tricky, so we often need to create a custom plan to address it. This might include a mix of laser treatments, chemical peels, and special skincare products.
How long will my results last?
With good skincare and sun protection, you can enjoy your results for years. But remember, your skin keeps aging and can still get new damage if you’re not careful. To keep your skin looking its best, we usually suggest a maintenance treatment once or twice a year. It’s also crucial to use good skincare products with antioxidants and daily sun protection. We’ll check in with you regularly to adjust your treatment plan as your skin’s needs change over time.
