Body tanning is a natural response to sun exposure, where the body increases melanin production to protect the skin from ultraviolet (UV) radiation. This protective pigment layer helps prevent further cellular damage by absorbing and dissipating harmful UV rays. As a result, the skin darkens, creating a noticeable contrast between sun-exposed and non-exposed areas. While this process is essential for defense against UV damage, it can lead to uneven pigmentation and unwanted tan lines. Tanning is most visible on frequently exposed body parts, such as the face, arms, hands, legs, feet, back, and neck.
Causes of Tanned Skin
UV-A Exposure
UV-A rays penetrate deeply into the skin, causing oxidative stress, triggering melanin synthesis, and leading to skin darkening. Chronic exposure accelerates skin aging and increases the risk of DNA damage, which can contribute to skin cancer.
UV-B Exposure
UV-B rays primarily affect the epidermis, causing sunburn, heightened melanin production, and potential skin inflammation. Overexposure can result in sunburns, hyperpigmentation, photoaging, and even an increased risk of certain skin cancers. Although the ozone layer blocks most UV-B radiation, about 5-10% still reaches the Earth’s surface, particularly during peak summer months.
Artificial tanning Equipment
The use of tanning beds and lamps also stimulates melanin production, leading to pigmentation changes and potential long-term skin damage.

We specialize in offering advanced solutions to treat all forms and severities of pigmentation, ensuring long-lasting satisfaction. Our certified dermatologists perform these advanced tan removal treatments to achieve a visible reduction in pigmentation and make existing pigmentation less noticeable. They may recommend the following procedures, either as standalone treatments or in combination, to deliver the best results at Evenly:
Creams, gels, or serums formulated with retinol, kojic acid, glycolic acid, cysteamine, vitamin C, and arbutin can help lighten your dark spots and even out skin tone. You must seek guidance from an expert dermatologist before using them to prevent any allergic reactions. These medications can be used as standalone treatments or in conjunction with chemical peels or laser therapy.
Chemical Peels involve a controlled skin resurfacing procedure that includes the application of a plant-based chemical solution to the affected area. This solution removes dead skin and improves texture by revealing smooth, undamaged skin, while promoting the production of collagen and elastin. Chemical peels help eliminate melanin build-up, reduce pigment formation, and reveal visibly brighter skin.
At Evenly Clinic, our approach to treating pigmentation with chemical peels is grounded in delivering comprehensive solutions tailored to each individual’s unique skin type and pigmentation severity. Whether you have sensitive skin or severe pigmentation concerns, our experienced dermatologists will customize the peel to deliver optimal results while ensuring safety and comfort.
Laser Toning involves the use of a specialized laser device that emits gentle pulses of light energy onto the targeted area. This process helps eliminate excess melanin, gradually lightening and evening out the skin tone. Our expert dermatologists are highly trained to perform this procedure, ensuring optimal results and safety for our patients.
Glutathione acts as a potent antioxidant with additional anti-melanogenic properties. Glutathione therapy involves administering glutathione through intravenous infusion to reduce skin pigmentation. Our experts are highly trained to administer glutathione safely, ensuring minimal risk for our patients.
At Evenly, we utilize microdermabrasion to address body tanning by targeting areas of uneven pigmentation caused by sun exposure. This non-invasive procedure involves a handheld device that gently exfoliates the top layer of the skin, revealing brighter skin underneath. It not only promotes an even skin tone but also reduces tan lines.
