Lighten dark pigment: What is your skin color? This is important when thinking about procedures that will help balance your pigmentation. As a general rule, no matter your skin color, the daily use of an antioxidant sunscreen is paramount. If you work outside, or have a lot of outdoor activities, wear a wide brim hat in addition to your sunscreen. Peels, ipl, laser peels, skin lighteners are options for pigmentation.
