Melasma is a common skin condition characterized by brown or grayish patches that often appear on the face, neck, or forearms. Factors such as sun exposure, hormonal changes, and genetics contribute to its development, with areas like the cheeks, forehead, and upper lip frequently affected.

Melasma Treatment Options We Offer
Exion Clear®
Exion Clear® uses radiofrequency energy to target excess pigment beneath the skin’s surface, helping calm the overactive melanin production behind melasma. Unlike heat-based lasers, it’s a gentler option with a lower risk of triggering additional pigmentation in melasma-prone skin. Results build gradually with a series of treatments alongside consistent sun protection.
IPL PhotoFacial Lumecca®
IPL PhotoFacial with Lumecca® uses broad-spectrum light to target excess pigment just beneath the skin’s surface, helping fade the uneven patches associated with melasma. Because melasma can be sensitive to heat-based treatments, sessions are carefully calibrated to the individual’s skin tone and melasma severity. Most clients need a series of sessions along with daily SPF to maintain results.
VI Chemical Peel®
The VI Chemical Peel® exfoliates layers of discolored skin to reveal a more even-toned complexion beneath, targeting melasma and other forms of hyperpigmentation. It’s formulated to work on multiple skin types while minimizing the risk of rebound pigmentation. Peeling occurs over several days as fresher, more even-toned skin emerges.
PRX Derm Perfexion®
PRX Derm Perfexion® is a needle-free treatment that brightens melasma-affected skin without the peeling or downtime of traditional chemical peels, making it a gentler option for pigment-prone skin. It works by combining hydrogen peroxide and TCA to stimulate skin renewal from within. Results improve gradually with repeated sessions and carry a lower risk of triggering rebound pigmentation than more aggressive treatments.
SkinPen® Microneedling
SkinPen® microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries that help improve the penetration of brightening serums while gently encouraging more even melanin distribution over time. It’s a gentler option for melasma-prone skin, which can be sensitive to more aggressive treatments. Results build gradually with a series of sessions alongside consistent sun protection.
Medical-Grade Skincare
Medical-grade skincare formulated with ingredients like hydroquinone alternatives, vitamin C, and retinoids helps manage melasma between in-office treatments and supports longer-lasting results. It plays a key role in preventing rebound pigmentation, which melasma is especially prone to. Consistent daily use, paired with SPF, is essential for maintaining results.
What to Expect During Your Melasma Treatment Process
Your journey to clearer skin begins with a comprehensive consultation to assess your skin type, examine the severity of melasma, and discuss your skincare goals. Based on this assessment, we’ll recommend a personalized treatment plan that may include options such as laser treatments, chemical peels, or microneedling, all carefully designed to address melasma and provide a more even complexion.
