Melasma

Melasma is actually a common medical skin issue that occurs when patches of brown or gray appear on facial areas such as the forehead, nose, cheeks or chin. Any part of the body that gets a lot of sun is vulnerable to this condition.

Most tretaments involve prescription creams that help the unwanted pigment to soon disappear. Regardless of the cause, reducing sun exposure and wearing sun protection is a key part to any treatment regimen, especially for darker skin.

Some may require other treatments such as laser skin resurfacing or chemical peels. Consult our dermatologist today to identify the best treatement regimen today!
