At MODA Medical Aesthetics, we are dedicated to helping you achieve a brighter, more even complexion. Our tailored treatments effectively address melasma and restore your skin’s natural glow.
Melasma is a common skin condition characterized by patches of brown or grey-brown discoloration, appearing several shades darker than your natural skin tone. These patches are often flat and freckle-like, typically found on the forehead, cheeks, bridge of the nose, and upper lip. Melasma is more prevalent in women than in men and can significantly impact selfconfidence.
The exact cause of melasma remains unknown, but several factors are known to contribute to its development and recurrence, including:
• Hormonal Changes: Often triggered by pregnancy (referred to as the “mask of pregnancy”) or hormonal medications.
• UV Exposure: Sunlight is a significant factor in melasma flare-ups.
• Genetics: A family history of melasma can increase your likelihood of developing it.
• Medications: Certain drugs can make the skin more prone to discoloration.
Proper medical-grade skincare is often the first step in managing melasma. We recommend topical products like:
• Hydroquinone: A gold standard for lightening pigmentation.
• Retinol: Enhances cell turnover to reduce discoloration.
• Vitamin C: Provides antioxidant protection and brightens the skin.
Our trained staff will work with you to customize a skincare regimen tailored to your needs. Prescription-strength topical treatments can also be provided for more persistent melasma.
Chemical peels are an effective way to address melasma by resurfacing the skin and removing the outermost layer where the pigment resides. Ingredients such as AHA’s, glycolic acid, and salicylic acid promote cell turnover, improve skin texture, and lighten pigmentation.
SkinPen is an advanced microneedling treatment that stimulates the skin’s natural repair process. By creating controlled micro-injuries, SkinPen promotes collagen production, improves skin texture, and reduces the appearance of melasma. This minimally invasive option is effective for enhancing overall skin tone and clarity.
At MODA Medical Aesthetics, we understand that every case of melasma is unique. Our team of experienced professionals will design a personalized treatment plan to help you achieve lasting results and regain your confidence.
