MELASMA TREATMENT
BEFORE & AFTER
MELASMA
Melasma is a common skin concern for many people in Australia, which is diagnosed as skin discolouration. Put simply, brown or gray patches appear on your skin, primarily on the cheeks, bridge of the nose, forehead, chin and above upper lip. This skin condition may appear on other body parts that often get most of the sun exposure like forehead, neck and shoulders. The pregnant women are at a greater risk of getting it.
We, at Cosmetic Clinic Coolangatta in Gold Coast, figure it out by intensely looking at the skin. With advanced devices and technologies, we check out how deeply it is penetrated. Sometimes, it may confuse with another skin conditions. We do biopsy to exactly rule it out. It requires a small bit of skin tissue, which our physician and experts take out safely and quickly.
Main causes
The exact cause of this skin condition is unknown. Our cosmetic doctor identifies that it may be due to a defect in the melanocytes in the skin. These cells produce pigment to provide colour to the skin. Since this condition is linked with colour-making cells, most probably, the melanocytes cause it. They produce too much of pigment that the surface turns darker than the normal skin tone of other body parts.
Mostly, the people with darker tones are prone to develop melasma for having more pigment producing cells than that of the people of lighter skin.
In short, here are a few main causes of this skin problem:
- Sun exposure
- Genetic reasons
- Irritant skincare products
- Hormone treatment
- Having birth control pills
- Hormonal changes during pregnancy (chloasma)
Best Way to Treat
Our experienced doctor and a team of highly qualified skincare experts determine the exact cause to treat it from the root. If it is caused due to hormonal changes, or during pregnancy, it fades away upon delivery or when you stop taking birth control pills.
