Melasma

Are you struggling with Melasma?

Melasma is a common skin condition that causes patchy, brown or grey-brown pigmentation, most often on the face. It’s typically symmetrical and appears on the cheeks, forehead, upper lip, and chin, but can also affect other sun-exposed areas like the neck or arms.

 

Flat, discoloured patches of brown, grey, or tan pigment Usually symmetrical on both sides of the face More noticeable after sun exposure or during hormonal changes Can worsen with heat, inflammation, or certain skincare products
Melasma is triggered by an overproduction of melanin (the pigment that gives skin its colour), often due to: Hormonal changes – pregnancy, birth control, or hormone therapy Sun exposure – UV rays stimulate pigment production Heat and infrared light – can also worsen melasma Genetics – more common in those with medium to darker skin tones Skincare products – harsh ingredients can cause inflammation and make melasma worse
Primarily affects the face.
OUR PROCESS

What we do

It is important to note that melasma is a chronic skin condition and cannot be cured.  While melasma can be stubborn, it is manageable with the right treatments and expert care. At DermaLuxe Beauty, we take a gentle, tailored approach to help fade pigmentation and prevent future flare-ups.

Our Melasma Solutions Include:

  • Brightening chemical peels – Formulated to gently exfoliate and fade pigmentation without irritating the skin
  • Laser and IPL therapy – Target pigment clusters with minimal downtime (used cautiously, depending on skin type)
  • Microneedling – Stimulates skin renewal and allows deeper penetration of brightening actives
  • Antioxidant-rich facials – Soothe inflammation and prevent pigment overproduction
  • Professional skincare plans – Featuring medical-grade ingredients like tranexamic acid, niacinamide, azelaic acid, and broad-spectrum SPF to protect and brighten
  • Ongoing support – Education, seasonal skincare adjustments, and long-term care plans
