Darker skin tones are more prone to hyperpigmentation and damage when exposed to certain treatments. This fact has caused extreme hesitation to proceed with all treatments. In the case of removing dark spots, experts will suggest using the key body brightening option - laser treatment.
Not all lasers are created equal. There are lasers that are designed specifically for darker skin types and vice versa. Many treatments for skin of color have been associate with limitations due to the fairly high side effect profile. In fact, lasers can cause burns, scars and could potentially make the skin turn darker or lighter. There are super aggressive lasers that are completely contradicted in people with darker skin types because they have the power to permanently destroy melanin in the skin, causing permanent discoloration and skin whitening.

Under a standard laser setup, doctors can not perform any treatment that is around and on the lower eye area, upper eye, and eye-lid. To properly treat the upper eyelid area, the eye needs to be prepared with numbing drops. Intraocular laser shields must be inserted around the eye itself and under the eyelid area, so the eye is fully protected by the eye shield when the laser is operating and treating the area. If you rely on an expert at the time of treatment, your results are bound to be substantially greater than one could ever imagine.
