Facial dark spots are one of the most common skin care concerns. Factors such as sun exposure, hormonal changes and skin ageing can cause hyperpigmentation at various stages of life. These alterations in pigmentation can affect the uniformity and brightness of your face, generating the need for specific products to treat it.
Depigmentation products that are specifically formulated to prevent, slow down and reduce dark spots are key to combat them effectively.
Why do facial dark spots appear?
Hyperpigmentation is the result of the excessive production of melanin, the pigment that determines skin colour. When this process gets out of control, darker spots appear on certain facial areas. Although anyone can develop them, some factors can make them appear more frequently:
- ● Unprotected sun exposure: UV radiation stimulates the production of melanin, which worsens the appearance of dark spots.
- ● Hormonal factors: During pregnancy, use of contraceptive medication or menopause, hormonal changes may trigger melasma.
- ● Skin ageing: Over time, skin tone becomes uneven and solar lentigo or age spots appear.
- ● Inflammation and previous injuries: Acne, burns or aggressive treatments may result hyperpigmented marks on the skin.
Since facial dark spots can have different causes, it is important to choose depigmentation products that work effectively on all stages of pigmentation by preventing, slowing down and reducing the appearance of dark spots.

DSP-COVER is the perfect combination of treatment and immediate correction. Its 3-in-1 stick formula prevents and treats hyperpigmentation thanks to its depigmenting ingredients, while protecting your skin from UVA/UVB rays (SPF 50+), preventing dark spots from intensifying with sun exposure. In addition, it is a tinted formula, which enables instant concealing of dark spots.
Main ingredients:

Having understood the benefits of each product, it is important to note that they can be combined to maximise their effectiveness. For example, DSP-CREAM SPF 50+ is ideal for protecting the skin during the day, while DSP-BRIGHT can be used as an intensive treatment before the cream, as well as at night. If you also need to correct visible dark spots, DSP-COVER enables you to cover them while you continue with your depigmentation process.
Key tips to boost your depigmentation treatment
To achieve the best depigmentation results and keep your skin even and bright, you can reinforce the treatment by following these recommendations:
- ● Don't forget sun protection every day. Sun exposure can aggravate hyperpigmentation, which is why using SPF 50+ is key.
- ● Combine the treatment with exfoliation. A gentle exfoliating scrub or a depigmentation mask can improve cell renewal and enhance the effect of the products.
- ● Be consistent. Depigmentation treatments require time and consistency to show visible results.
- ● Moisturising and antioxidants. Keeping skin well hydrated and nourished with antioxidant ingredients helps to support your skin barrier and improve even skin tone.
