Sun exposure drives melanocytes to overproduce melanin in patches, producing brown spots, freckling, and diffuse dyschromia. It also breaks down small vessels near the surface, producing telangiectasia and diffuse background redness.
This is why sun damage usually shows up as brown and red at the same time. Treating only one leaves the skin half-corrected. In Texas specifically, cumulative sun exposure is significant by mid-adulthood even for patients who use sunscreen.

Platforms and pairing
BBL HERO is the first-line treatment because it targets brown and red together. HALO is chosen when pigment sits alongside real texture change. Chemical peels are a good option when laser is not the right fit. All three are combined with strict sun protection.
