What Is Melasma?

The common skin condition of melasma primarily places patches on your cheeks, forehead, and upper lip. There is no exact cause of it, but it is often triggered by hormonal changes in pregnancy, genetics, and sun exposure. The patches may darken over time.

Treatments for Melasma

Our aesthetic and laser specialists see many patients with melasma. While some patients have success with topical creams that help slow down the production of melanin, other patients try microdermabrasion and chemical peels to fade their patches. One of the most effective ways to treat melasma is with laser therapy. Lasers target the darker pigments, breaking them into smaller pieces.

What Is a MOXI Laser Treatment?

We love the innovative MOXI laser treatment for any type of pigment issue. This unique laser has a tiny tip that creates micro-injuries in its target areas. Collagen production is boosted to help lower the effects of age spots, sun spots, hyperpigmentation, and freckles.

MOXI Laser for Melasma Treatment

The Moxi laser is effective and safe to treat all types of pigmentation issues. Moxi can treat all skin types, so it’s an excellent choice for most patients. It doesn’t produce a high amount of heat, so it lowers the risk of triggering hyperpigmentation issues. Moxi is a gentle laser that easily targets any area of skin with uneven texture. Our patients love that it gives them a boost of confidence.

Is Melasma Curable?

It’s almost impossible to completely eliminate dermal pigment. The good news is that we can treat dark patches and help even out the pigment in your skin. Our aesthetic and laser specialists have seen countless positive melasma treatment results. We work with you to ensure the best treatment outcome for your needs. Our Moxi laser is one of the most effective ways to target any problems of uneven pigment on your skin.
