But, before that read on about melasma-its causes, treatments, prevention, and more here.

What is Melasma and Why Does It Occur?

What Is Melasma?

Melasma is an acquired, common pigmentation irregularity featuring prolonged darkening of the skin in spots or patches.

It primarily affects the facial tone, appearance and self-esteem of the sufferer, when symmetrical dark brown, blue, or grey colored spots/patches show up on the nose bridge, cheeks, chin, upper lip, and/or forehead.

However, the condition can even develop on the skin of the neck, forearm, and shoulder- the body sites that are most exposed to sunlight.

Anyone can be affected by melasma. But, mostly people with olive or dark skin tones, those with a family history of melasma, and women who are pregnant and experiencing hormonal fluctuations tend to develop melasma. If the condition presents in pregnant women, it is referred to as “chloasma”- the mask of pregnancy.

Causes of Melasma

As per research findings, the melanocytes, the melanin-producing cells, are more active in melasma patients. Melanin is a colored pigment that imparts natural color to the skin of an individual. Hyperactivity of melanocytes results in more melanin in the skin and subsequently skin darkening. However, it is still unknown as to what causes melanocytes to be more active.

Researchers believe that melasma can be the result of triggering of melanocytes by:

  • UV radiation exposure- Continual or frequent exposure of the skin to UV radiation from the sun over time causes melasma to develop.
  • Hormonal changes- When there is a rise in estr-ogen and pro-gester-one hormones during pregnancy, thyroid disorder, hormone replacement therapy, and intake of oral contraceptives, melasma can develop.
  • Stress- The body of a stressed person has more cortisol hormone and this hormone is responsible for stimulating melanocyte activity. When cortisol is in excess, melasma is triggered or it worsens.
  • Certain medications and skin products- These include ret-inoids, certain blood pressure drugs, antibiotics, anti-seizure drugs, and skincare products with irritants.

Melasma Treatment Options Available in Hyderabad

Melasma treatment package in Hyderabad available at Celestee Skin, Laser And Hair Clinic includes the following top treatment methods:

Topical Treatments for Melasma

Topical creams for melasma treatment include ointments and creams containing Retinoids, Hydroquinone, Vitamin C, Kojic Acid, Glycolic acid, and/or Azelaic acid. Over-the-counter creams, gels, and ointments may not work best for melasma patients as compared to prescription-strength melasma creams in Hyderabad, recommended by the best dermatologists at Celestee Skin, Laser And Hair Clinic.

Chemical Peels for Melasma

Melasma treatment using chemical peels helps to peel off the superficial hyperpigmented skin and reveal the underlying healthy, new skin that is evenly toned. The procedure involves the application of a thin layer of acid solution of strength (mild, medium, or strong), depending on the depth of melasma being treated.

Melasma appearance can be significantly reduced with the help of alpha and beta hydroxy acids like glycolic acid, salicylic acid, and others.

Depending on the concentration and strength of acid solutions used, the number of chemical peeling sessions, downtime, and aftercare are decided. Typically, Chemical Peels for Melasma in Hyderabad at Celestee Skin, Laser And Hair Clinic are provided after every 3-6 weeks.

Laser Treatment for Melasma

Laser treatment for melasma involves the use of non-ablative Q-switched Nd: YAG laser or fractional laser technology to precisely break down the extra melanin deposits, in the melasma-affected areas of the skin, using heat generated by the laser. The immune cells help eliminate the fragments of melanin from the treated skin. Simultaneously, the heat of the laser stimulates the growth of healthy, new skin cells.

Multiple laser sessions, in a few weeks' gaps, depending on the depth of melasma, are required for melasma removal. Laser melasma treatment helps melasma patients restore their natural skin tone without significant downtime and serious effects. It is recommended when topical creams and chemical peels can’t treat melasma. Melasma treatment cost in Hyderabad offered at Celestee Skin, Laser And Hair Clinic is totally worth it. The cost of melasma treatment with laser is reasonable at Celestee Skin, Laser And Hair Clinic.

Microdermabrasion & Other Advanced Treatments

Microdermabrasion for melasma involves the use of a handheld device that delivers abrasive crystals to gently, and mechanically remove the superficial pigmented layers of the skin, thereby lightening the melasma-affected skin.

At Celestee Skin, Laser And Hair Clinic, our best dermatologist for Melasma in Hyderabad also offers other advanced melasma treatment options like P-R-P therapy for skin pigmentation reduction and radiofrequency microneedling.
