Sun Damage in Pensacola
Living in Florida means enjoying plenty of sunshine—but too much exposure can leave a lasting mark on your skin. Sun damage shows up as dark spots, uneven tone, redness, and premature aging. Over time, UV rays break down collagen and elastin, causing wrinkles, sagging, and rough texture. At Lost Key Med Spa, we offer treatments that target the visible signs of sun damage while supporting long-term skin health.
What Does Sun Damage Look Like?
Sun damage, also called photoaging, can take many forms, including:
- Brown spots, freckles, or hyperpigmentation
- Redness and visible blood vessels
- Uneven tone and rough texture
- Fine lines or deeper wrinkles
- Dull, tired-looking skin
Unlike regular aging, sun-related changes often appear earlier and progress faster in exposed areas like the face, chest, arms, and hands. Treating these issues requires therapies that address both surface discoloration and deeper structural changes.
Sun Damage Treatment Options
At Lost Key Med Spa, we combine advanced technology with professional-grade care to restore healthier, brighter skin. Some of our favorite options include:
- Alma Dye-VL (IPL):Â Targets sun spots, freckles, redness, and broken capillaries by using intense pulsed light to break up pigment and improve skin clarity.
- Alma Opus Plasma:Â Resurfaces and smooths skin damaged by years of sun exposure, tightening lax areas and reducing lines.
- Chemical Peels and ZO® Peels: Exfoliate the outer layer of skin, fade discoloration, and encourage new, healthier cells to surface.
- Medical-grade skincare:Â Ongoing regimens that protect, repair, and maintain results between in-office treatments.

Who Is a Candidate?
You may be a good candidate for sun damage treatment if you:
- Have uneven skin tone, brown spots, or redness from UV exposure
- Want to reverse visible signs of premature aging
- Are in good health and seeking noninvasive options
- Are committed to maintaining results with consistent sun protection and medical skincare
Our providers will evaluate your skin and recommend a plan tailored to your needs, whether that means a series of IPL sessions, resurfacing treatments, or a combination approach.
The Treatment Process
Your treatment begins with a consultation to identify the type and extent of sun damage. Some patients benefit from IPL to clear pigmentation, while others may need deeper resurfacing with Alma Opus Plasma. Peels may be added to refine the surface, and medical-grade skincare helps protect and maintain results.
Most sessions take less than an hour and require little downtime. You may need multiple treatments for best results, depending on the severity of your sun damage.
Recovery and Results
Recovery varies with treatment. IPL and ClearLift involve little downtime, with mild redness that resolves quickly. Plasma resurfacing or medium-depth peels may require a few days of peeling or flaking. Results build gradually, with brighter, clearer, and smoother skin becoming more visible over weeks to months. With sun protection and professional skincare, results can be long-lasting.
