Many people begin noticing pigmentation or uneven skin tone in their 30s and 40s. While sun exposure plays a role, pigmentation is often influenced by a combination of factors including hormones, genetics and changes within the skin itself. Understanding the cause is important when considering treatment options. At Chrysalis, consultations help determine the most appropriate approach for your individual skin

Following periods of higher UV exposure, antioxidant support becomes an important part of maintaining healthy skin.
Vitamin C plays a key role in helping protect the skin from environmental stress while also supporting collagen production - the protein responsible for skin firmness and resilience.
Active C Serum is a popular option for improving brightness, supporting skin structure and helping maintain overall skin health.
Available in clinic - come in and purchase yours.

Living in North Queensland means our skin experiences high levels of UV exposure over many years.
While sun damage is often associated with pigmentation or uneven tone, UV exposure can also affect how skin cells behave beneath the surface.
Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) is a medical treatment used in skin clinics to target sun-damaged or abnormal cells. Once these cells are removed, the skin begins the process of regeneration.
At Chrysalis, treatments are delivered within a doctor-led clinic, with consultations used to assess skin and determine the most appropriate approach.

When people think about sun damage, pigmentation often comes to mind first.
But UV exposure can also affect collagen - the protein responsible for skin firmness, structure and elasticity.
Over time, cumulative sun exposure may contribute to changes in texture, fine lines and overall skin resilience.
The good news is there are ways to support your skin after periods of high UV exposure.
A few key things that make a difference:
• Daily sunscreen remains the most important step in protecting collagen long term
• Professional treatments can support collagen stimulation and skin renewal
• Clinical-grade skincare helps strengthen the skin and improve overall resilience
• Consistent skin care routines are key to maintaining results
As we move into autumn, it’s an ideal time to focus on rebuilding and supporting the skin after summer.
Start with a free consultation to discuss suitable options for your skin.

After months of UV exposure, your skin’s natural renewal process benefits from targeted support.

Book in for a free consultation to see if SkinPen is suitable for you.
