MELASMA TREATMENTS IN FREMONT
Melasma is a common, benign condition in which brown to gray-brown spots form on the face. The ailment is much more prevalent in women than men, affecting nine women for every one man. Melasma is triggered by estrogen and progesterone production, which is why it’s rare before puberty, and it becomes much more common during reproductive years for women. Pregnant people are most likely to see the effects of melasma, with 15-50% of them experiencing the effects. Also, it’s most typical for those with light-brown skin with high sun exposure.
For those suffering from melasma, MOD Dermatology offers melasma treatments in Fremont, including chemical peels and pigment removal. Chemical peels offer exfoliation, skin brightening, and improved skin texture. Meanwhile, laser and light treatments are targeted, effective treatment options for melasma that doesn’t respond to topical medications, and this type of treatment can offer long-lasting effects. If you’re experiencing uneven darkening skin problems, and the spots are affecting your confidence or quality of life, schedule an appointment with MOD Dermatology to explore our melasma treatment options at our Fremont clinic.
BENEFITS OF MELASMA TREATMENTS:
LIGHTENING OF PIGMENTATION
For those with darkened spots from melasma, one of the main benefits of treatments is the lightening of pigmentation in the skin. Chemical peels can offer relief by not only brightening the skin, but also creating a more even tone for patients. They can also improve the texture of the skin, making it smoother. Or, spots can be lightened using laser or light treatments. While peels are used on the entire surface of the skin, lasers are more targeted, specifically hitting those dark spots. We offer pigment removal and chemical peels right here in Fremont.
