AcneMelasma is a common skin condition characterized by dark, discolored patches that usually appear on the face. These hyperpigmented spots often occur on areas such as the cheeks, forehead, nose, and upper lip. Women are more prone to melasma, particularly during hormonal changes like pregnancy, known as the “mask of pregnancy.” Sun exposure and certain medications can also trigger or worsen melasma.
While melasma is not harmful, it can affect a person's confidence and emotional well-being due to its appearance. Managing melasma effectively involves early diagnosis and tailored treatments to reduce pigmentation and even out skin tone. Professional care can significantly diminish the visibility of these dark patches, enhancing overall skin aesthetics.

Melasma is a skin condition characterized by dark, discolored patches on the face, typically caused by an overproduction of melanin. This overproduction is often triggered by hormonal changes, such as pregnancy or oral contraceptives, as well as prolonged sun exposure and genetic predisposition. Understanding the root causes can help in selecting the most appropriate treatment options for melasma
The time it takes to see results from melasma treatments can vary depending on the selected treatment method and the individual's skin condition. Generally, patients may start seeing improvements in their skin tone and texture after a few sessions. For RF Microneedling and Mesotherapy, noticeable results can often be observed within 3-4 sessions. IPL therapy may require multiple sessions for optimal results, typically spaced several weeks apart.
Melasma can sometimes recur, especially if the underlying causes such as hormonal changes or excessive sun exposure are not managed. While treatments like RF Microneedling, Mesotherapy, and IPL can significantly reduce the appearance of melasma, ongoing maintenance and protective measures are crucial. Using broad-spectrum sunscreen daily, wearing protective clothing, and avoiding excessive sun exposure can help maintain the results and prevent melasma from recurring.
