Types of Melasma

melasma

Epidermal Melasma

This type occurs in the top layer of the skin (the epidermis) and is characterized by dark brown patches. It is more responsive to treatment and can be reduced significantly with the right care.

dermalmelasma

Dermal Melasma

Dermal Melasma affects the deeper layers of the skin (the dermis) and appears as lighter brown or bluish-gray patches. This type is more resistant to treatment but can still be managed with consistent care and advanced therapies.

Sun-Induced Melasma

Excessive sun exposure without protection can cause or worsen Melasma, leading to dark patches primarily on sun-exposed areas of the face. This type can be managed by combining treatments with sun protection strategies.

Mixed Melasma

A combination of both epidermal and dermal Melasma, this is the most common type and presents as a mix of light and dark patches. Treatment usually involves a blend of therapies to target both layers of the skin.

Causes of Melasma

Melasma is a complex condition that can be triggered by various internal and external factors. Understanding the root causes of Melasma is important for selecting the most effective treatment.

Sun Exposure

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun is one of the most significant triggers of Melasma. Prolonged sun exposure stimulates melanocytes (pigment-producing cells), causing dark patches to appear. Individuals living in sunny regions like Pune are more prone to developing sun-induced Melasma.

Hormonal Changes

Hormonal fluctuations, especially during pregnancy, are a common cause of Melasma. This is why Melasma is often referred to as the “mask of pregnancy.” Changes in estrogen and progesterone levels can lead to hyperpigmentation, which may persist after pregnancy.

Genetics
  • If Melasma runs in your family, you may have a higher risk of developing it. Genetic predisposition plays a role in how your skin responds to sun exposure and hormonal changes.

Medications

Certain medications, including oral contraceptives and hormone replacement therapies, can increase the likelihood of developing Melasma. These medications can make your skin more sensitive to UV rays, leading to pigmentation.

Skin Inflammation
  • Any form of skin trauma or inflammation, such as acne or dermatitis, can trigger Melasma. Inflammation can stimulate excess melanin production, leading to dark patches on the skin.

Cosmetic Products
  1. Some cosmetic products or treatments that irritate the skin can cause or worsen Melasma. It’s important to use skincare products recommended by professionals to prevent skin irritation.

Treatment Options for Melasma

Aesthetic World Clinic, we offer a range of effective Melasma treatments tailored to your specific skin type and the severity of the condition. Our treatments are designed to lighten dark patches, improve skin texture, and prevent future recurrences of pigmentation. Located in Kharadi and Wagholi, our clinic serves patients from nearby areas including Chandan Nagar, Bakori, Kesnand, Shirur, Shikrapur, and Sanaswadi.

1. Topical Treatments

We offer prescription-strength topical treatments that help reduce Melasma by inhibiting melanin production. Common ingredients include hydroquinone, retinoids, and azelaic acid, which work together to lighten dark patches and promote cell turnover.

  • Who it’s for: Ideal for patients with epidermal Melasma (superficial Melasma), as it directly targets pigment in the top layer of the skin.
  • Service Areas: Available for patients in Kharadi, Wagholi, Chandan Nagar, and Bakori.

2. Chemical Peels

Our chemical peels are a powerful treatment for reducing pigmentation caused by Melasma. The procedure involves applying a chemical solution to exfoliate the outer layer of skin, revealing a brighter, more even complexion underneath. We offer varying strengths of peels based on your skin type and Melasma severity.

  • Who it’s for: Effective for patients with both epidermal and mixed Melasma, especially those with resistant dark patches.
  • Service Areas: Offered at both our Kharadi and Wagholi branches, serving nearby regions such as Kesnand, Shirur, and Sanaswadi.

3. Laser Therapy

Laser treatments, such as Q-switched Nd lasers, are highly effective in treating Melasma by breaking down excess pigment in the skin. At Aesthetic World Clinic, we use advanced laser technology to target deeper layers of pigmentation without damaging surrounding skin tissue.

  • Who it’s for: Suitable for patients with dermal or mixed Melasma who require deeper penetration to lighten dark patches.
  • Service Areas: Available at our Kharadi and Wagholi clinics, convenient for patients from Shikrapur, Chandan Nagar, and Bakori.

 

4. Microdermabrasion

We also provide microdermabrasion as a gentle exfoliation treatment to improve Melasma. This procedure involves using tiny crystals to remove the top layer of the skin, reducing pigmentation and promoting skin rejuvenation.

5. PRP Therapy (Platelet-Rich Plasma)

Our innovative PRP therapy helps to treat Melasma by utilizing your body’s own platelets to repair and regenerate damaged skin cells. This natural treatment stimulates collagen production, improves skin tone, and reduces pigmentation.

  • Who it’s for: A great option for individuals looking for a natural, regenerative approach to treating Melasma and enhancing skin healing.
  • Service Areas: PRP treatment is available at our Wagholi and Kharadi clinics, serving residents of Chandan Nagar, Sanaswadi, and Shikrapur.
