Melasma is a disorder that causes uneven blotches of hyperpigmentation on the face. It is instigated when the female sex hormones estrogen and progesterone kindle pigment-producing cells to create excess melanin when the skin is bare to the sun. Melasma is occasionally named as mask of pregnancy. It is very common and is triggered by hormonal fluctuations that are stirring in the pregnant lady’s body. It is typically a dark skin rash that has an uneven shape and borders. It will typically occur on the cheeks, forehead, lips and nose. It will occasionally point up on the upper arms of the pregnant lady. There are lots of treatments to treat this disorder. The most common ones that we use at our clinics are chemical peels, microdermabrasion and q-switched laser.
Melasma Treatment
Reasons of melasma
The major elements that contribute to this specific disorder are the heredities, hormonal inequity, exposure to the UV emissions or pregnancy. The consumption of birth control pills and also the hormonal placement medications elicit this specific skin complaint. When this problem befalls during the period of pregnancy, it is being named as the chloasma.

How laser therapy treats melasma?
Laser is used at precise frequencies so as to target the melanin in the skin that causes melasma at first. The neighboring skin remains benign as the laser is specifically used for targeting the murkier matter. It breaks down the pigmentation which the body can dispose of pretty easily. The intensities of elastin and collagen both are enhanced in the skin, making it agiler.
