Melasma

Melasma is a dark skin discoloration, appearing in sun exposed areas. On the face it mostly affects the cheeks and the nose; it manifests as well demarcated hyper pigmented patches.

The etiology is multifactorial and contributing factors are: genetic, hormones, pregnancy, repeated unprotected sun exposure, stress. It’s caused by an over stimulation of the melanocytes to produce melanin.

It mostly affects women.

Melasma can be effectively treated with a combination of several aesthetic treatments such as:

Microneedling with or without PRP, it stimulates the production of new Collagen creating a controlled injury to the skin in the form of microchannels. This results in a younger, smoother, plumper and brighter looking skin. It can be used on its own or in combination with Platelets Rich Plasma (PRP) or growth factors serums.

Polynucleotides, which are a sequesnce of nucleotides that, once injected, target the fibroblasts to produce more collagen and elastin. By doing so they aid skin regeneration and tissue repair, they also increaseskinh hydration and hyaluronic acid synthesis.

Exosomes, which are extracellular vescicles. This treatment aids tissue regeneration, softening fine lines and wrinkles, tightening loose and aged skin, hydrating the skin, improving skin tone and texture.

LED phototherapy, it’s a fantastic non-invasive treatment that uses therapeutic light energy to trigger the skin natural rejuvenation and repair processes. It’s completely painless and has no downtime. Our skin has the ability to absorb light energy and uses it to stimulate and regulate essential cell processes. After phototherapy skin cells can renew up to 200 % faster. The result is an amazing flawless, glowing skin.

Mesotherapy, it consists of multiple microinjections of a cocktail containing Vitamins, Amino Acids, Hyaluronic acid, Enzymes, Hormones and plant extracts, in the mesoderm, the mid layer of the skin. All these substances stimulate the fibroblasts production of Collagen, the substance responsible for skin rejuvenation and repair. This results in a younger, smoother, plumper and brighter looking skin.

A combination of treatements is the most effective approach to treat this problem.
