Melasma Treatment
Melasma is a chronic skin condition characterized by dark, usually symmetrical patches on the skin. It is far more common in women, accounting for up to 90% of cases. These hyperpigmented areas most frequently appear on the face—particularly the nose, cheeks, chin, and upper lip—and typically affect individuals between the ages of 30 and 60.
Causes of Melasma
Melasma occurs due to increased melanin production, the pigment responsible for skin color. This overstimulation of melanocytes—the pigment-producing cells—is most commonly triggered by hormonal imbalances and genetic factors. The condition is often associated with pregnancy and menopause, hence the nickname “pregnancy mask.” Other contributing factors include UV exposure, stress, and certain underlying medical conditions.
Melasma Treatment
Effective melasma treatment includes non-thermal laser procedures, biorevitalization with brightening agents, and a consistent home care regimen. A high SPF sunscreen must be applied year-round to prevent recurrence and protect the skin.
Dermapen Treatment
Dermapen microneedling is highly effective for treating localized melasma. When combined with Melaclear serum, the treatment helps reduce pigmentation and stimulates skin regeneration.
Glow Cellbooster & ClearLift – Maintaining Control Over Melasma
Since melasma treatment is safest and most effective during the winter months—when UV exposure is lower—maintenance treatments are recommended during the summer to prevent recurrence.
One of the most effective options in melasma and hyperpigmentation management is the Glow Cellbooster. This treatment involves microinjection of a cocktail rich in nutrients and antioxidants that normalize melanocyte activity and protect the skin from oxidative stress.
The ClearLift laser, with its specialized applicator, belongs to the class of non-ablative lasers. It penetrates deep into the skin without damaging the surface layer, which means there is no recovery time. The thermal effect stimulates the skin’s natural regeneration, while its photoacoustic effect targets and breaks down pigmentation.
