Melasma
Melasma, or chloasma, stands as the primary contributor to facial hyperpigmentation. Although men can also develop melasma, it is notably more widespread among women. Approximately 50% of pregnant women may encounter this skin condition, often referred to as 'the mask of pregnancy'.
The condition manifests as brown or grey patches that symmetrically appear on the cheeks, forehead, upper lip, nose, and chin. Other sun-exposed areas like the chest and forearms may also be affected. Melasma is devoid of physical symptoms such as pain, sensitivity, or itchiness. It is non-cancerous and does not progress into cancer.

What does the Melasma treatment involve?
While melasma poses no threat to your health, many individuals seek treatment for cosmetic reasons. Thanks to innovative technology, achieving an even skin tone is now easier than ever with pain-free melasma treatment that yields impressive results.
Our approach involves the use of the SmartPICO laser system, renowned for its flexibility. Through laser toning, the system's pulses generate a photoacoustic effect, precisely targeting cutaneous tissue at the optimal depth. This process stimulates collagen production while preserving the surrounding skin.
The picosecond emissions of SmartPICO minimize downtime and side effects, with noticeable results from the initial session. Subsequent treatments, typically once a month, lead to even more significant improvements.
