Contact UsWhat Is Laser Melasma Treatment?
Melasma, also known as chloasma, occurs when uneven patches of darkened skin show up on the face or forearms. These discolored spots often appear evenly around the forehead, nose, cheeks, or upper lip. Melasma is commonly found in women and may be due to sun damage or hormonal fluctuations, such as with menopause and pregnancy. Dr. Usha Reddy treats melasma regularly using PicoSure® laser technology at our Long Beach, CA office. With pulsed laser energy, the device can lessen the visibility of the condition by breaking apart the melasma pigmentation so your body can naturally reabsorb it. Call Reddy Aesthetics today to schedule an appointment for this skin resurfacing treatment.
What to Expect from Laser Melasma Treatment
Prior to your procedure, a topical anesthetic can be used on the treatment areas to minimize discomfort. PicoSure's advanced technology delivers laser energy to the targeted area of the skin to break down hyperpigmentation caused by melasma and promote collagen generation. As a result, the unwanted discolored spots will disappear as you are left with a clearer, even skin tone. For most patients, it takes 2 – 3 sessions to significantly reduce the dark areas. After your laser melasma treatment, an ointment will be placed on the treated skin, and you can return home to recover. Your skin may look red with some swelling and irritation, but it will typically go away within 24 hours.
