Fade Frustrating Dark Patches

Are you bothered by irregular patches of darker-than-normal skin on your face and neck? You may have a skin condition called Melasma. While Melasma is benign, the random dark splotches on your skin can be aesthetically displeasing. For some, effective treatment can be challenging.

What Is Melasma? 

Melasma is a complicated skin condition that shows up as brown-tinted patches of skin on the forehead, cheeks, jawline, upper lip, and neck. Melasma is different from sun damage in that the pigment is usually “triggered” by hormones, genetics, or the sun. It is not uncommon to have it appear with pregnancy, oral contraceptives, or hormone replacement therapy.

In simple terms, some of the cells in your body have gone rogue and are producing excess pigment. Once these cells start to produce pigment, it is hard to turn them off. The good news is that at Flawless Med Spa & Wellness, we offer many options to help quiet them down and lighten and even out your skin.

How Can We Help?

It is common for pregnancy and melasma to go hand in hand. At Flawless Med Spa & Wellness, we offer free consultations with a highly trained aesthetic nurse to determine the best path forward for treatment. We offer a variety of treatment options including PicoSure laser facials, chemical peels, and skincare products to treat this issue. Before any laser treatment, each patient must be pre-approved by our medical director, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. William Loufty. 

PicoSure Laser Facials


Laser treatments target the deeper layers of skin, breaking apart the roots of dark pigment while leaving normally pigmented skin unaffected. The broken-down particles of pigment are then naturally metabolized by the body. This option typically requires a series of sessions and is usually recommended in the most treatment-resistant cases. The PicoSure laser is one of the very few lasers that can be used to treat Melasma.

Chemical Peels

Often very effective when treating Melasma, chemical peels use a mild acid to remove damaged skin. Once the damaged skin is removed, healthy skin can replace it. It is important to know that regular skin protection from the sun is necessary for this option; sunscreen and using a hat to protect from sun exposure will ensure the best results.

Is There Downtime With Melasma Treatments?

The answer depends on the treatment method. All our Melasma treatments have minimal downtime, however, it is important to note that you may experience some redness and skin peeling with our chemical peels and Pico laser treatments. It is also recommended to refrain from heavy exercise for a day or two after a chemical peel.
