Melasma is a common skin condition that causes dark, uneven patches on the face — especially on the cheeks, forehead, nose, and upper lip.
These patches develop due to increased melanin production in the skin.
While genetics play a role, several external and internal factors can trigger melasma.
For example, hormonal changes during pregnancy or from birth control pills often lead to flare-ups.
Additionally, excessive sun exposure worsens the condition, making consistent sun protection essential for prevention and management.
At Skin6 Clinic, we use advanced laser technologies like fractional lasers and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) to treat melasma effectively.
These lasers specifically target excess melanin, helping to break down pigmentation and promote even skin tone.
As a result, your skin undergoes a natural rejuvenation process that improves clarity and brightness over time.
Although results vary, multiple sessions are often recommended to achieve the best outcomes with minimal downtime.
Chemical peels are an effective option to lighten melasma patches and refresh the skin’s surface.
At our clinic, we offer customized peels that contain active ingredients such as glycolic acid, salicylic acid, and trichloroacetic acid (TCA).
These acids work by exfoliating pigmented skin cells and stimulating the growth of healthy new skin.
In addition, chemical peels can enhance skin texture and tone, especially when combined with other treatments in your care plan.
Topical treatments are often the first line of defense against melasma.
At Skin6 Clinic, we prescribe targeted creams and serums that reduce melanin production and help fade dark patches gradually.
These may include:
Hydroquinone – A powerful skin-lightening agent that directly inhibits melanin production.
Tretinoin (Retinoids) – Encourages faster cell turnover, helping to shed pigmented skin more quickly.
Azelaic Acid – Combines depigmentation with anti-inflammatory benefits, making it ideal for sensitive skin.
Kojic Acid – A natural alternative to hydroquinone, known to lighten pigmentation and even out skin tone.
When used consistently, these topical agents can lead to visible improvements over several weeks.
Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that enhances your skin’s ability to absorb pigmentation-fighting serums.
During the procedure, tiny micro-injuries are created using fine needles. These stimulate collagen production while improving product absorption.
We pair this technique with custom pigmentation serums to increase their effectiveness in fading melasma.
As a result, skin texture and tone improve together, and pigmentation lightens gradually with each session.
Sun exposure is one of the most common triggers for melasma — and even the best treatments can fail without proper sun protection.
At Skin6 Clinic, we guide you through a customized sun care plan that supports long-term pigmentation control.
This includes:
Choosing broad-spectrum sunscreens with SPF 50 or higher
Daily reapplication techniques
Protective clothing and tips to minimize UV exposure, especially during peak hours
In addition, we educate you on indoor light sources like blue light from screens, which may also impact pigmentation.
Every skin is different — so your melasma routine should be too.
We create personalized skincare plans that work in sync with your clinical treatments.
These regimens often include:
Vitamin C – An antioxidant that brightens skin and protects against UV-induced damage
Niacinamide – Reduces pigmentation, strengthens the skin barrier, and calms inflammation
Gentle cleansers, non-comedogenic moisturizers, and non-irritating actives suited to your skin type
This approach helps maintain your results while also improving your overall skin health.
At Skin 6, our approach to treating melasma is both comprehensive and customized. Our team of experienced dermatologists uses the latest advancements in dermatological care to provide effective, personalized treatments. We understand the complexities of melasma and are dedicated to helping you achieve a clearer, more even complexion.
The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) is a newly identified virus that primarily affects the respiratory system. It spreads through droplets from coughs, sneezes, or close contact with infected individuals. Common symptoms include fever, cough, and difficulty breathing. Practicing good hygiene, wearing masks, and social distancing are key to preventing its spread.
You can prevent cavities by brushing your teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, flossing daily, and limiting sugary foods and drinks. Regular dental cleanings and check-ups also help identify early signs of tooth decay. A good oral care routine is the best defense against cavities.
