- To reduce Hyperpigmentation, Dark Spots and Melasma you need a well rounded anti-pigmentation skincare regimen that incorporates skin lightening agents with the proper balance of skin regeneration, hydration, exfoliation, prepping, and protecting. Together these factors synergistically aid in removing hyperpigmentation and maintaining lasting results. CAUTION!!!!! Skin is so individualized and what right for one person may not be right for the next so I’ve listed several top-notch products for you here but you only need one product from each category. Below find all the recommendations made throughout the video to help you get rid of unwanted dark marks or brown patches.

Lifestyle Changes:
Drastically Decrease Soy in diet sorry to my soy latter lovers. Soy has an estrogenic component in it and can turn on the alpha MSH pathway.
Choose an anti-inflammatory diet (minimize soy/nuts/corn/etc) rich in antioxidants
Hair Grooming- Keep Hair Dryer away from your skin as heat activates melanocytes
Facial hair- step away from the tweezers and stop picking
No Smoking of any kind/ No Vaping- nicotine will deposit more pigment in the skin.
Hot Yoga, Sauna, Try and cool off the car before entering if it's hot out
Compliance is key because correction can take anywhere from 1 month to 3+ months. Depending on the individual.

The best video I ever seen on hyperpigmentation... Great Dr ... I need an appointment now
same! how do we sign up for one?
Very good!! There’s another good one by a Medical Student here on TH-cam. Check her out ‘Vote for Hani’
Waiting for the melesma treatment video
Wow. I’m going to have to rewatch this and take notes. I had no idea moisturisers were THAT important in terms of penetration enhancing. I thought actives came from everything else, and all a moisturiser had to do was to ‘seal’ things in. I just wish the audio wasn’t bad, and that you didn’t talk as fast. But MIND BLOWN 🤓
@@aishwaryathadiparthi4798 hdhrhfrbnfgv
It’s so nice to finally see a woman of color describe the treatment. You are clearly very knowledgeable and we are thankful for your information!
Please can I get your phone number to book appointment with you? Am desperate I have a very big problem Thx
you should check out dr vanita rattan also very informative
@@diabloazula7643 I like Dr. Vanita too but she did not specialize in Dermatology in medical school and is not a dermatologist. She is just a regular MD....not sure if she specialized in anything or not. I think may to be a General Practitioner. After med school she become a chemical formulator of skin products. Dr. Alexis on the other hand was a chemical formulator first, and then went to medical school specifically for Dermatology. So, from a medical perspective and dermatological standpoint, I think I give Dr. Alexis one or maybe even two up on Dr. Vanita. But, I do appreciate Dr. Vanita as well for sure. And I absolutely enjoyed the video they did together.
I love it when educated people break knowledge down to even where a child could understand. You did a wonderful job explaining this!
She breaks it down scientifically and then tells you exactly what to use to fix it... am I dreaming? 😍😂
She’s a dream 🥺🫶🏽
This is the most DETAILED and thorough description of hyperpigmentation that I've ever seen. And I've seen many many because I've suffered from acne for over 35 years. From cystic acne to regular pimples to dermatitis acne. Thank you! I found myself saying thank you all through the video. But thank you again. New subscriber here! 😁
Have you tried to treat with Weedborn CBD products?
This is the most wholesome video I’ve watched in a while. Love to all working moms during this pandemic. Thank you for this video, Dr. Stephens!
I washed this video again and it is really a master class, so many years suffering from hyperpigmentation and melasma and I have never learned as much as I have learned with this video. Thank you Dr. 🙏
Me too it is in my saved video because it is not very clear to me how to use and what to use
Oh my God !!! As a premed and fellow dark brown girl, i am in awe !!! Subscribed !!
Lord Jesus, I felt like I was in somebody's science class trying to understand what is going on. 😭😄🤦🏽♀️ Explain it to me like I'm a child doctor! 😄🤦🏽♀️ Nonetheless, I did complete the video and I'll be back lol thank you for what you do!🥰
Would be nice to have a video on how to incorporate Vit c, azelaic acid, arbutin and Niacinamide in a routine to get the max result without cancelling each other.
Hi. I've learned that Niacinamide and Vit C definitely cancels each other out so Niacinamide usually is a day serum while Vit C can be used at night.
Vit c has also been recommended to be effective with alpha arbutin so put those 2 in your night routine.
For the day, niacinamide pairs well with the azelaic acid.
You can actually go on to The Ordinary's website (even if you do not use their products) and utilize the live chat on the order which you can use products and how they pair with each other. Hope this helps :)
Watch her collaboration video with Mixed Makeup on hyperpigmentation for dark skin. Get your pen and paper ready!
Check out Dr. Vinita Rattan who has a video on You Tube about layering those exact products.
@@sarojanilakhan7251 Thanks for suggesting her! She also has some interesting information!
@@krystinemarie4935 Actually, Dr Stephens explains why Niacinamide and Vitamin C actually works well together!
She talks about this in her collab video “skincare ingredients do not mix”
You’re esteemed colleague brought so much value to the conversation 🤣
Love Love this video. Please can you do a skin care routine (AM & PM) for treating acne and hyper pigmentation
It is so refreshing to see a darker skinned dermatologist talking on skincare because I always have to be cautious if other dermatologist are going to regularly work with people with dark skin tones so this is super helpful and your work is so needed
Thanks Dr. Alexis. I love the way you use terms like too many “people” or “cars”.
Please do a video on treating Melasma. This video was extremely helpful.
Melasma and hyperpigmentation not the same thing? Only one affects Caucasians more
Please put the order in which we need to use these items in a list starting from cleanser, treatments, retinol, etc. It’s hard to keep up with the right products we need to use in the correct order.
i gotchu!
1. Oil Cleanse/Micellar Water (optional)
if you wear minimal to a lot of makeup, this step would be really good for you! just an extra precaution in order to remove most makeup
2. Foam/Water Based Cleanse
If the first cleanse *truly* isn’t needed, I recommend starting here. Double cleansing is really recommended, but not always needed. Start your routine off with a good cleanse to clear up oil and debris.
3. Exfoliate
Like Dr. Alexis said, enzyme exfoliants are recommended for hyperpigmentation, so you can find one that suits your skin type.
4. Treatment
5. Moisturizer
6. Sunscreen
(Go for a physical sunscreen! Chemical sunscreens can cause a lot of irritation, leading to worsened hyperpigmentation.)
This list isn’t perfect, but this is a good start! you can fix and tweak any steps in order to suit your skin better.
@@chickenstrips623
Thank you, because my head was spinning.👍🏼
No
@@chickenstrips623 Dr. Alexis also mentioned the use of BHA exfoliants. I guess you figure out if an enzyme is best for you or not or am I mistaken that a BHA acts as an exfoliate as well?
@@seasonedsofisticate1901 bha acts as an exfoliate
I deal w hyperpigmentation and I want to thank you for breaking this down in simple terms
I was already subscribed to you, but today I did a search for hyperpigmentation, hyperpigmentation doctor, and hyperpigmentation dermatologist. You didn't come up anywhere. I'm thankful you popped up somewhere for me in the past, but I really hope you optimize your videos to start ranking higher in the search engine. I know your oldest video is a year old and everything else is relatively new, but it's not hard. Hyperpigmentation is one of your specialties. Keywords and hashtags will be your friend. Good luck. You're needed!
Agreed sharing with all my friends and family
Yes I agree with you, Dr Alexis should come up on top for hyperpigmentation advice. I am always looking for skin care for hyperpigmentation and just can across Dr Alexis. Is it because I'm white and watch mostly white TH-camrs? I've watched Dr. Rattan in the past too but Dr Alexis is so very good. What the heck TH-cam?
YES WE NEED A TREATMENT VIDEO ON ACNE AND PIGMENTATION RIGHT MOISTURIZERS AND TONERS PLEASE
Your daughter is so cute 😍
I’m sure she’ll grow up to be as smart and as beautiful as you are. Thank you for the informative video!
This video has helped me so much to stop spinning my wheels on acne scarring from the pregnancy of my daughter. I am finally seeing results. I keep coming back to re-watch.
Hi dr. Thank you so much for this information! We needed this. I’d like to suggest a little more organization in your future videos. The content was great but it was not clear a lot of the times because it felt a little all over the place and rushed. Also a lot of the images, changed too fast and a lot of them had a lot of information. I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
Yes im having the same issue, I had to rewind and pause often :(
Your skin is amazing...I would love to have beautiful skin like yours.... I pray daily for clear skin... I'm tired of wasting money on usless products that don't work.
You are so informative. You explain very well and provide product recommendations that are budget friendly. I'm so glad I came across your channel. I hope other people will recognize how great you are.
I am glad my daughter introduced me to your channel. I have learned so from you, Dr. Stevens. Please continue your work on d skin of color on TH-cam.
If you are ever in South Florida, Dr. Stephens is amazing. I saw her for my hair loss after recovering from COVID-19 and she also addressed my hyperpigmemtation with Cyspera. She is my dermatologist I am so grateful for her. She did not try to "sell" me a bunch of items truly tried the conservative approach first. I jumped ahead however to the PRP injections. Thanks a million Dr. Stephens!
Hey, is the PRP working for you? What's your experience with it and how pricey was it? Thank you
@@mssumerloving It was a little steep but I do feel it is working. It is about $600 per injection. My edges looked terrible but I can see them filling in after 1 injection but she said the series is 3. I did not wait until they were completely gone but they were notably patchy.
@@doristhecoder765 thanks so much for responding. Yikes that is a little steep but I may just have to suck it up and do it.
Wait, COVID causes hair loss, too? Oh wow! I'm glad you're doing better and were taken care of!
Yes it causes massive hair loss. If I showed you a picture it would make you cry.
Second time I watch this video is like a master class, I will watch it again taking some notes next time.
The baby is the highlight of the whole video 😍😍😍😍😍
Thank you for this wonderful video. I'm so glad this came up on my recommendation list. I've been looking for a black dermatologist for the longest 😘
FINALLY! an actual dermatologist providing skin care advice! And a beautiful black doctor to boot! We love to see it
It would be great to have a video of your skincare routine using the most affordable products that you spoke about , so we can visually understand how to treat hyperpigmentation.
The most comprehensive advice and enjoyable visual aids for the public I've seen online, congrats Dr. Stephens, forget the dangerous, non-dermatologist influencers- (You know who you are) who just regurgitate each other's reviews and have monetary agendas!! Also love Dr Venita Rattan
Oh bless your heart, I have been looking for a dr on TH-cam that specializes in people of color skin because I always knew that people of color had different skin than others (no shade to anyone). I just got tired 😫 of running to the store to get a beauty product and the product didn't help my skin. I always wanted clear skin so that makeup would be an asset to my skin and not a cover up essential product for my skin. 🥰🥰🥰

Wow. This could be a lecture in med school, it was so detailed - and well edited, thank you so much!! 🎉
Oh gawd, I've been using a product with hydroquinone for only three weeks now, but after seeing those pictures I am stopping immediately. I don't know if I'm being paranoid but I hope that's not long enough to cause that much of a side effect down the road. * super scared*
I did nothing for me so I stopped using it smh
Thank you!! I was prescribed Tri-Luma and it made my hyperpigmentation worse. I’ m hoping to be able to reverse this.
This video was so comprehensive. As a science geek, I loved the flowcharts and analogy to people in the car. I understand people with deeper skin color have a bigger issue with hyperpigmentation. Can those of us developing sunspots as we age follow the same advice in the video, or is there a different regimen to follow? I assume retinoids are part of the answer.
This video was ok with listing products but kind of confusing. I felt like I was in science class with all of the scientific terms for everything.... I don’t want to speak for everyone but we don’t know half of what you were talking about. I feel like I just wanted to know what will help improve the skin instead of being educated on the different layers of the skin.
I love Dr. Stephens' videos, but I hope that the editing and sound can keep improving. It's somewhat distracting, but I really value all of the amazing information that she is sharing with us, for FREE! THANK YOU DR. STEPHENS.
I agree. She really deserves many more views , subscribers and likes. With a few tweaks she will blow the competition out of the water.
@@gardeniainbloom812 I am not sure if you noticed, but there is a video with Susan Yara where there is significant improvement. She slowed down and is enunciating much better.
As you highlighted, the Very DETAILED info was given to us for FREE..She didn't OWE this to us. She gave it for FREE. No one contributed to her speaker/microphone detail. She gave us her knowledge and time for FREE.. Anyone not appreciative of that needs to accept the fact that they are selfish. And some selfish people they don't appreciate selfless acts from others because they can't understand it. They're possibly unaware of who they
are. They're NARCISSISTIC!!
@@Shortcake39553 Constructive feedback is not narcissism. Please grow a backbone.
@@eggsandtiddies8395 You first! Since you can give unwarranted criticism without showing your Face
The constant mask wearing is what brought me here. It's irritating and darkening my cheeks. Thanks for the advice Dr. There were some really affordable suggestions I'm going to try.
Happy to finally see a dermatologist of color doing a scientific no frills youtube channel! Thank you for the detailed explanations and honest opinions!
This was AMAZING!!! Where have you been all my life!!?? 😩 only took 35 years, but I’m on it! I have most of these but will switch out a few, thanks so much 🙏🏾💜💜💜
I'm confused! What's the actual order of application of these products?
That one thing almost never mentioned.
She mentions it in the description box how to layer them for best results as they work by complimenting each other.
Confusing video
Here's a video by Dr. Vanita Rattan who also specializes in skin of color: th-cam.com/video/UVKA22PuMK0/w-d-xo.html
Dr. Stephens's video is really great for learning what ingredients to use and why. Dr. Rattan's video explains more on how to layer them. It seems the layering order depends on the formulation of the products. Basically, going from the most watery to the thickest/oiliest products.
She put a chart up at the end of the video.
Cleanser: based off of skin type
Exfoliate: Enzyme (1x weekly)
Active skin brightener: vitamin c
Moisturizer: unsaturated fatty acid
Sunscreen: Physical w/iron oxides(tinted)
I looked up my moisturizer and found out that it contains stearic acid & palmitic acid. I have hyper pigmentation on my cheeks. So now I will be trying one of the moisturizers you recommended. :) Great Video
This was a lot. Were these steps/products in order? A video on the exact steps/layers in order would be great.
go see a dermatologist!
@@avanulaneway8418 we don't have black dermatologists in my country which is why I'm watching her!
@@avanulaneway8418 you have a lot of nerve to exclamate "go see a dermatologist" who do YOU think you are?
@avanu Laneway how dear you who do u think you are . The Dr. Is on TH-cam meaning she is also an influencer.. and she is making a video. So she should list the products and the order they should be used..
I agree. The video is full of great advice . I look at her then I try to find other videos that give a step by step suggested order to use the products.
Yes! Would love to see a video specifically on melasma treatment and management!
The video seems scattered; too much info and the pics disappear too fast. It would help to narrow it down to one topic: how to treat melasma.
This was SO helpful. I have been feeling super untrusting towards my current moisturizer and sunscreen and wanted to figure out a better routine for evening out my skin tone. There’s so much misinformation out there but I feel like I can trust you! First step is throwing out my Cerave moisturizing Cream because it has saturated fat as the 4th ingredient (MCT oil/coconut oil/caprylic,capric triglyceride) ! Everytime I put it on I felt like it made my skin tone look MORE uneven. I’m glad to know it wasn’t in my head.
The best video for hyperpigmentation 🙌🏾🙌🏾
You are on TH-cam! You helped me to clear up my skin after over yeeeers of trying. Thank you!
What skin condition did u have? What did u use?
This is amazing! I am watching this again and loading up on the products mentioned
This literally blew my mind. I loved the science packed knowledge and your daughter is adorable.
Thank you so much for the detailed explanation of the cause and treatments for hyperpigmentation. It’s been so helpful
Dr Alexis, what do you suggest do hyperpigmentation on the body because it just does not happened on the face? Can some of this serums/ products be used on the body? On the affected areas
I use exfoliation and i mix vitamin c in my moisturizer and it works for my body.
Thank you for this! It was so enlightening. Please make a Melasma treatment video 🙏🏾
Wow, sooo informative! The best information about how to treat hyperpigmentation I’ve ever received. I have a dermatologist appointment this weekend but this makes me not want to go lol. My derm is so unhelpful and just prescribes - doesn’t inform or anything and gives one or two word answers to questions.
Thank you so much for sharing this information with us! I’ve been struggling with hyperpigmentation for about 12/13 years and this gives me hope.
This is a problem I find with all these doctors!!!!
Me too same amt of years..my PCP wrote me tretinoin 0.025% and i bought Naturium niacinamide serum 12% with zinc 2% and Aobbiy glutathione dark spot corrector, timeless ferulic acid with vitamin E also on amazon. Seen great results for the 1st time. Gonna visit her though..she is literally 10 min from me. Never seen her video until 2 days ago
Thank you so much for sharing your talents and information. As a senior I am still learning and find your videos informative and helpful. My skin is looking more youthful since I've been following you.
Hi Dr Stephens. I hope you are doing well. At the beginning of this video, you mentioned that 2 products , although pricey, can help us achieve the same result as using several of the products you mentioned. What are those 2 products? Also, could you please do a video about a good skincare routine for women with hyperpigmentation, basically, an illustration on how to use the products you mentioned. Thank you!
Your channel is everything I have prayed for !!! God bless you !!!
Dr. Alexis I cant thank you enough for this! I've studied the hyperpigmentation playlist, created my own routine and I feel so much more empowered and in control after watching this and the other videos on this subject. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with the TH-cam Community!
Plz tell me... Cream names doctor said that... What is good or what is not necessarily
Thank you Dr. I had some serious dark spots. But listening to your instructions, my skin gets clearer and clearer every week. Thank you so much!!!
thank you for the information. I just feel like you spoke to fast.
You have an absolute gift for educating! Thank you so much for explaining this! Love it!
Your recommendation is topnotch, we need routine. Confused and lost in your explanation.
Wow if only my med school did their derm lectures like this....hats off for explaining that complicated process very clearly. Your new subscriber!!! Came to you from Dr Rattan’s channel
Omg! Okay. I need to sit down, and takes notes. Coming back in the AM!
This is your friendly reminder to come back :)
Dr. Stephens, Do you offer virtual visits/ consultations? I promise you I would be a regular patient just to have you clear my skin. You taught us SO MUCH in this video and I truly appreciate it, but now I am scared to do the wrong thing. And the dermatologists around here do not know melanin enriched skin like you do. Please let us know, you can have every penny in my HSA if you do offer virtual consultations!
I really wish you would have kept it simple and short. Way toooo much information. I can’t follow😭 I really wish you kept it short and simple, this sound like a textbook. Not everyone can keep up 🤦🏾♀️ can someone pls explain this in a simple way?.. thanks in advance.
omg , the best explanation of hiperpigmentation, thank you so much
Hi Dr.Stephens; I would like to know if you do virtual consultations? Thank you :)
Me too.... I would love to gave a demonologist that understand our skin
Thank you... I was never this informed the way in which you simplify your information is so beneficial and enlightening thank you
What are the two products we can use to “target every single pathway of melanogenesis” mentioned at 0:48?
Did you ever find the answer?
Cyspera and AnteAge MD. The products shown at the time stamp you mentioned.
Thankyou so much for this video ! I happened to stumble upon this when looking for a dermatologist that specializes in dark skin. A lot of the products I have been using were actually doing more harm than good. Thankyou so much again. I was able to jot down notes and will build a skin care regimen for my skin type
I just recently found your channel and boy am I glad I did. I have already been able to change things based on what I’ve learned from your videos. Thank you for putting this important content out there and for giving different price points for skin care options.... also your baby is ADORABLE!
You are so welcome! and Thank you!!!
Thank you dr beautiful! Very nice of you to share!!😘😘 I am suffering from this so hopefully will work. I will keep you in my prayers.
My confusion is, am I using all the actives listed in the description?
@@HonestLady 🤣🤣
BEST video and information every on the subject! Thank you Sista Girl!
I was doing so good, until the moisturizer part 😭😭😭
Anyway thanks, this was so informative 🙌🏼
I know right?? No one really talked about that before .
now I find it struggling to differentiate unsaturated vs saturated fatty acids because they could be written under many different names in the ingredients list :((( hope someone can help
@@vitran6815 cerave daily moisturizer is perfect, it has cholesterol and all the right fatty acids
Woooo I've just been to Uni! Fantastic! Thank you so much i need this as could not understand what was going on with my skin. I hate the marks feel so concious dont like looking in the mirror. Recently found makeup that covers it now time to treat it. My face was flawless hope to get back there oneday.
I really enjoy how in depth you were about this entire process. N I have suffered with acne scarring and dark marks since middle school and have tried everything possible. I am 23 years old now, so for some time now I have just given up on my skin. I am definitely going to give some of these products a try.
Me being Mexican and reading the lifestyle changes saying to reduce corn intake 😱
I love this video. I wish I could see her in person.
Thank you for your video
I’m so happy that I found you. I love your video. The hyperpigmentation video are great since I suffered from it. Can you please do a video about your morning and night routine. I would like to know what kind of supplements are you using. Thank you!
Hi Dr I recently discovered your videos. While I appreciate how you breakdown the information, I got lost and couldn't keep up with the speed. I was a bit overwhelmed. I am Hispanic, 64 and live in a desert area. I always use wide brim hats,, caps or a visor to shield my face because I've battled hyperpigmentation for over 30 years. So I was excited to see your video. Is there a handout I can print especially regarding the order of application of the suggested products? Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. You're a superstar!
So informative, but confusing at the same time! Simplicity is the name of the game for most people! What to buy how to use it and when to expect some results. Great channel keep grinding!
I believe at the end she gives the regimen.... but list products that we ourselves can chose from based on our skin (23:20)
Sooo y'all just gonna pretend I'm the only one that thought she was Venus Williams for one millisecond?
You the only one girl😁
How lol? Like they look nothing alike lol
@@Chloeeezyyy that's my opinion, you aren't required to agree.
@@shebeme2000 If you had said the lady from Punky Brewster, then maybe, but not a Venus was seen.
@@mrs_chin I'm glad we got to the bottom of that.
Thank you so much for this video as I have made a person talk me into using hya pen injections for my cheeks which caused more damage then topped it off with a chemical peel as tho my skin was not perfect prior. Now I look insane trying to get my life on track as a cosmetologist. This was an a amazing stream pathway to my next moves to helping as well as this visit to this dermatologist since you are not in NYC. Lol. Thank you so much!
I personally rate your skincare advice among the best and most detailed among all the dermatologists on TH-cam!! Thank you for all you do Dr Stephens!
This is good information!!! I had terrible hyperpigmentation after having my baby from a terrible acne breakout but all I did was use Ole Henriksen’s Sheer transformation perfecting moisturizer... I cleansed with Cerave foaming facial cleanser, and I used witch hazel or hurt bees 🐝 makeup remover micellar wipes. Occasionally I would do a Burt bees face mask.... but now my skin looks pretty good. Not much scaring left. Just a little more texture to work on
I use Cetaphil moisturising lotion on top of all my actives.
I was happy to know that over time it could fade. Thanks
This is the proper definition of a good simple skin expert thank you for what you are doing great job. Hope you can train us one on one someday?
Dr Alexis please offer advice on ridding hyperpigmentation on the inner eye skin. I inadvertently used a course paper napkin, tore my sensitive skin, and now it’s healed w hyperpigmentation. Love ur channel.
So I bought a product from each category but I’m not sure what’s apart of the morning routine and what should be apart of my nightly routine.
Thank you! This was so much information definitely need to watch twice. Anyone else info overwhelmed? I truly feel like I owe a co payment, my insurance card or something. Liked and subscribed for now and will try another run through with pen and paper Whew. Wish me luck!
This is the best informative video I have ever watch about hyperpigmentation, Dr. could you please do an update version with better audio. The audio is broken up during the video and makes it hard to listen. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and for your help 🙏❤️❤️❤️
Awww your daughter is beautifulllll 🥺🥺
Omg! A Queen sis to educate us! I thank you from the bottom of my heart! I didn't start having this issue till I became a grown woman. May break out from (that time of the month) the bump goes away but leaves a black scar. Im crying writing this.. I've gone to so many Dr.s but none of a Queen African Decent.
Omg! Let me order everything!
Thank you ❤️
Great job Doc... I finally understand my skin!!!🙌🏾👍🏾
This is such a great video! but I feel overwhelmed with the amount of information. Which out of all these products or steps are really the most important? I use Super goop sunscreen and moisturizer and ceravee hydrating cleanser. I have dry skin and Eczema. I would like to target the hyperpigmentation around my chin and neck.
