July is Melasma Awareness Month! We want to take this opportunity to increase your understanding of this common skin condition and how to combat it to restore a healthier, clearer complexion. It’s characterised by dark, patchy discolouration, which can be a source of frustration and anxiety for sufferers. Bespoke treatment for melasma at La Fuente Clinic can help you restore your skin’s natural radiance.
Types Of Melasma And What Causes Them
Melasma is a complex condition that manifests in various forms, each with its own set of challenges. These include epidermal melasma, dermal melasma and mixed melasma. Epidermal melasma affects the topmost layer of the skin, while dermal melasma resides deeper within the dermis. Mixed melasma presents a combination of both. Understanding the specific type is crucial for formulating an effective treatment for melasma.
While the exact causes remain elusive, several factors are believed to contribute to its development. Hormonal imbalances, particularly during pregnancy or when using hormonal contraceptives, can trigger melasma. Sun exposure, genetic predispositions and certain medications are also known to play a role. By identifying the underlying causes, our skin experts at La Fuente Clinic can create targeted treatment strategies.
Personalised Treatment For Melasma
- Medical-Grade Chemical Skin Peels
No two cases of melasma are alike and we understand this, which is why treatment for melasma differs from person to person. That’s why our experts customise skin peels to suit the unique needs of each client. These specialised peels contain powerful ingredients that exfoliate the skin, reduce excess melanin production and improve overall skin tone. By carefully selecting the appropriate peeling agents and tailoring their concentration, we can effectively treat different forms of melasma, paving the way for a more radiant complexion. - Advanced Laser Treatments
We also harness the power of advanced laser technology to treat melasma here at La Fuente Clinic. Laser treatments, such as EXCELIGHT® IPL from Lynton, can precisely target melanin deposits while minimising damage to the surrounding skin. These highly effective treatments stimulate collagen production, leading to improved texture and reduced pigmentation.
