ESP<br />

Las terapeutas aprenden que la hiperpigmentación es causada por<br />

factores tanto externos como internos, como exposición solar o<br />

desbalances hormonales. Las terapeutas trabajan con piel sana, piel<br />

con condiciones menores o con patologías graves.<br />

ENG<br />

Therapists learn that hyperpigmentation is caused by both<br />

external and internal factors, such as sun exposure or hormonal<br />

imbalances. Therapists work with healthy skin, skin with minor<br />

conditions, or with more serious pathologies.<br />

Es esencial no prometer una eficacia del 100% al tratar la<br />

hiperpigmentación. Por lo general, se requieren tratamientos habituales<br />

para obtener resultados. Durante el día, se recomienda aplicar protector<br />

solar, o evitar en lo posible a exposición solar. Además, es importante<br />

aumentar la permeabilidad de la piel, mediante el uso de peelings<br />

químicos como los alfa hidroxiácidos en concentraciones personalizadas<br />

según el tipo y fototipo de piel. Los ingredientes activos más utilizados<br />

para tratar la hiperpigmentación son AHA’s, ácido kójico al 2%, vitaminas<br />

C y E, betacarotenos y despigmentantes vegetales. Las terapeutas<br />

deben realizar el correcto diagnóstico inicial para asegurar los mejores<br />

resultados. Se recomienda seguir el siguiente protocolo:<br />

1. Postura: Asegúrate de que el huésped está posicionado correctamente<br />

y está cómodo, permitiendo a la terapeuta mantener una buena postura.<br />

2. Consulta: Esencial para un diagnóstico correcto, y por ende, para el<br />

plan de tratamiento más adecuado.<br />

3. Limpieza: Desmaquilla y limpia el rostro, cuello y escote.<br />

4. Tonifica: Elimina cualquier residuo, neutraliza el pH y prepara la piel.<br />

5. Análisis de la piel: Usa una lámpara de lupa para determinar<br />

eficazmente las áreas con hiperpigmentación.<br />

6. Trata: Aplica el tratamiento recomendado.<br />

7. Limpia: Retira el producto y limpia.<br />

8. Aclara: Aplica una mascarilla iluminadora,<br />

siguiendo las instrucciones de la marca.<br />

9. Hidrata y protege: Aplica tóner,<br />

hidratante y protector solar con<br />

FPS de amplio espectro en escote,<br />

cuello y rostro.<br />

It is essential not to promise 100% efficacy when treating<br />

hyperpigmentation. In general, regular treatments are necessary<br />

to achieve results. During the daytime, it is recommended to apply<br />

sunscreen or avoid sun exposure as much as possible. It is also<br />

important to increase the skin’s permeability by using chemical<br />

peels like alpha-hydroxy acids in concentrations customized<br />

according to the skin type and phototype. The active ingredients<br />

most commonly used to treat hyperpigmentation are AHA's,<br />

2% kojic acid, vitamins C and E, beta-carotene, and vegetable<br />

depigmentants. Therapists must provide the correct initial<br />

diagnosis to ensure the best results. The following protocol is<br />

recommended:<br />

1. Posture: Ensure that the guest is positioned correctly and is<br />

comfortable, allowing the therapist to maintain good posture.<br />

2. Consultation: Essential for a correct diagnosis and, therefore,<br />

the most appropriate treatment plan.<br />

3. Cleansing: Remove makeup and cleanse the face, neck, and<br />

décolleté.<br />

4. Tone: Remove any residue, neutralize the skin’s pH, and<br />

prepare the skin.<br />

5. Skin analysis: Use a magnifying lamp to effectively determine<br />

areas of hyperpigmentation.<br />

6. Treat: Apply the recommended treatment.<br />

7. Cleanse: Remove the product and cleanse.<br />

8. Clarify: Apply a lightening mask, following the brand instructions.<br />

9. Moisturize and protect: Apply toner, moisturizer, and broadspectrum<br />

SPF sunscreen to the décolleté, neck, and face.<br />
