Melasma

What is Melasma?

Melasma is a common skin condition characterized by dark, discolored patches on the skin, typically appearing on the face. These patches are usually brown or blue-gray and often develop symmetrically on the cheeks, forehead, nose, and upper lip. Melasma is sometimes referred to as the “mask of pregnancy” because it frequently occurs in pregnant women due to hormonal changes.

The condition is caused by an overproduction of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color. Factors such as sun exposure, hormonal fluctuations, and genetic predisposition can trigger or worsen melasma. While melasma is harmless, it can be a cosmetic concern for many individuals.

At our medical spa, we offer a range of effective treatments to help manage and reduce the appearance of melasma, tailored to each individual’s skin type and needs.

How do you prevent Melasma

Wear sunscreen:

Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a high SPF daily, even on cloudy days.
Seek shade:

Avoid direct sun, especially during peak hours, and stay in the shade when possible.
Avoid irritants:
Limit the use of products or treatments that can irritate the skin, such as harsh chemical peels or abrasive exfoliants.
Moisturize:
Use a good moisturizer with ingredients like ceramides to strengthen your skin's protective barrier.
Use a consistent routine:
Incorporate ingredients known to help with hyperpigmentation, such as niacinamide, vitamin C, and alpha arbutin.
Manage hormonal triggers: If you suspect your birth control or other hormones are a factor, discuss alternative options with your doctor.
Consult a doctor: If you have melasma, see a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis and get personalized advice.
