What Is Melasma?

What Is Melasma?

Melasma, often described as the "mask of pregnancy," is a common skin condition characterized by brown to gray-brown patches, primarily affecting the face.
These patches most commonly develop on the cheeks, bridge of the nose, forehead, chin, and above the upper lip. It can also occur on other parts of the body exposed to the sun, like the forearms and neck.
Melasma Symptoms

Melasma is marked by the appearance of darkened patches on the skin. These patches are darker than the surrounding skin and are usually symmetrical, with matching marks on both sides of the face.
While melasma does not cause physical discomfort, its visible nature can significantly affect a person's self-esteem and quality of life. Fortunately, Modern Medspa provides Melasma treatment.
Melasma Causes

Melasma is caused by a combination of genetic predisposition and environmental factors. Hormonal changes, particularly related to pregnancy, contraceptives, and hormone therapy, play a significant role in triggering melasma by increasing melanin production.
UV exposure exacerbates the condition by stimulating melanocytes, leading to increased pigment production. Additionally, research suggests a link between melasma and thyroid dysfunction.

Melasma Treatment at Modern Medspa

At Modern Medspa, we offer advanced treatments for melasma, including the Sciton MOXI Laser, which is a non-invasive procedure ideal for those seeking minimal recovery time. The MOXI Laser targets the skin's deeper layers, promoting rejuvenation and reducing the appearance of melasma. We also offer world-class skincare solutions tailored to individual needs.
MOXI is a non-ablative fractional laser treatment, meaning that the treatment does not remove the outer layer of skin, making it less invasive and requiring less downtime compared to ablative laser treatments. MOXI is designed to improve skin texture, tone, and overall appearance by stimulating collagen production and promoting skin rejuvenation. It's suitable for various skin types and can target issues like fine lines, uneven pigmentation, and mild sun damage.

How to Treat Melasma with MOXI Laser

The MOXI Laser treatment at Modern Medspa involves a precise and methodical approach, tailored specifically for treating Melasma. We start by thoroughly cleansing the skin to prepare for the laser application. The MOXI Laser is then gently passed over the affected areas, delivering controlled micro-pulses of energy. This process initiates the skin's natural healing, promoting new collagen production and evening out skin tone.
At Modern Medspa, we take a considered and careful approach to treating Melasma with the MOXI Laser. Our treatment is designed to be both effective and gentle, ensuring maximum results with minimal discomfort. We carefully calibrate the laser settings to suit each individual’s skin type and condition, ensuring a customized treatment that addresses the unique needs of each client. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable experience that leads to visible, long-lasting improvements in skin appearance.
