Melasma is a skin condition that causes brown or gray patches to appear on the face, across the cheeks, forehead, nose, or upper lip. At Pacific Plastic Surgery Group, we offer a variety of effective treatments designed to minimize pigmentation and restore your overall complexion.
Melasma Treatments
SkinPen PRP
SkinPen PRP combines microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. This advanced treatment involves creating controlled micro-injuries with the SkinPen device, followed by the application of PRP to stimulate collagen production and accelerate skin renewal. Each session lasts approximately 45 to 60 minutes, and most patients experience mild redness for 24 to 48 hours. SkinPen PRP helps reduce the appearance of melasma by breaking down excess pigment and promoting smoother skin.
Skincare
A customized skincare regimen can help in managing melasma. Our specialists can guide you through topical treatments that include medical-grade products formulated to reduce pigmentation and support skin health. Many skincare options focus on exfoliating dead skin cells, reducing pigment formation, and strengthening the skin barrier to prevent future flare-ups. You will notice a gradual improvement in your skin as your skin cycles through new growth.
Skin Consultation with Dr. Kassam
A skin consultation with Dr. Kassam is the first step to developing your personalized melasma treatment plan. During your visit, Dr. Kassam will assess your skin type, pigmentation patterns, and medical history to recommend the most effective combination of treatments for your cosmetic goals. The consultation typically takes about 30 minutes to complete and involves no downtime. This individualized approach ensures that your treatment plan addresses both the root cause and visible symptoms of melasma, providing lasting results.
