Melasma
Melasma is a common skin condition that causes patches of brown or gray-brown pigmentation, most often on the face. It is frequently associated with hormonal changes, sun exposure, and genetic predisposition. Although melasma is harmless, it can significantly affect confidence and quality of life. Qesthetics is one of the leading laser clinics in the Greater Toronto Area, offering advanced, personalized treatments to help reduce the appearance of melasma and restore a more even skin tone.
Laser Melasma Treatment
Often times, pigmentation issues caused by melasma can be stubborn and quite difficult to treat. In fact, if treated improperly, the condition may worsen. However, several effective melasma treatment options have been available over the years. More recently, fractional laser and PicoSure were approved by the FDA for the melasma treatment.
Here at Q Esthetics Laser Clinic, we also use the Revlite Q-switch laser, intense pulsed light (IPL), chemical peels and microdermabrasion to treat melasma of different cutaneous layers. Click here to see some amazing melasma before after pictures from Q Eshtetics Laser Clinic.
Post-treatment of Melasma
UV radiation is a main factor that aggravates melasma, therefore sunlight protection is essential for melasma patients. At Q Esthetics Laser Clinic, we recommend the Revision Intellishade SPF 45 sunscreen. This revolutionary tinted moisturizer protects the skin from both UVA & UVB rays, dramatically alters skin texture, and improves the overall appearance of the skin.
Protective clothing and hats are also highly recommended. Some melasma patients should discuss alternative options of oral contraceptive with their gynecologists, as it may significantly increase the chance of recurrence.
