What is Melasma?

Melasma is a common skin condition that causes brown or discolored patches to appear on the face. This condition is also known as chloasma. It occurs when the skin produces excess melanin pigment. Melasma is not a harmful or alarming condition. But it can affect appearance and confidence due to visible pigmentation.

What are the Types of Melasma?

Melasma is categorized into three main types based on how deeply the pigmentation affects the skin layer. The common types are:

Epidermal Melasma– Affects the upper layer of skin
Dermal Melasma– Pigmentation lies deeper in the skin layers
Mixed Melasma– Showing characteristics of both types above

Cost of Melasma Treatment in Abu Dhabi:

The Melasma Treatment Cost ranges between 600 AED and 1,100 AED. The prices fluctuate depending on the type of treatment you are receiving and the extent of your condition.

Main Factors That Contribute to Melasma Formation:

Melasma can arise due to internal and external factors that lead to the excessive production of melanin. Here are the most common causes:

Hormonal imbalances
Sun exposure
Genetic factors
Birth control pills
Skincare products
Heat and light exposure
Stress and thyroid disorders

What are the Symptoms of Melasma?

The symptoms of melasma are easily recognizable due to their distinct appearance. Below are some common symptoms to look for:

Dark or brown patches
Patches appear on both sides of the face
Affected areas are the forehead, cheeks, upper lip, nose, and chin
Do not cause any itching or pain
Pigmentation develops slowly over time

Treatment Options for Melasma:

Melasma treatment demands a tailored approach because each individual has a distinctive skin type and discoloration pattern. Here are a few popular choices:

Chemical Peels:

The chemical peel works by peeling off the top layer of skin and facilitates the fading of surface pigmentation. Peels containing glycolic acid, lactic acid, and TCA are mostly used for melasma treatment. They not only reduce the pigmentation but also enhance the skin brightness and glow.

Topical Treatments:

Topical creams and medication are also useful for the treatment of melasma. They help to decrease the melanin production and gradually fade discolored patches. They should only be taken under the oversight of an expert dermatologist for the best effects. These medications and creams contain active ingredients that include:

Hydroquinone
Corticosteroids
Kojic acid
Azelaic acid
Retinoids

Laser Treatment:

It is one of the modern options for treating deep pigmentation. It involves using a high laser beam to concentrate on the affected area without damaging the surrounding tissues. It breaks down the pigment color, and then the skin naturally removes the color over time. Some of the latest laser devices include:

Picosecond Laser
Fractional Lasers
Q-switched Nd: YAG

Mesotherapy:

Mesotherapy is also a useful treatment choice that involves administering a mixture of vitamins and brightening agents straight into the skin to suppress melanin production. This technique is mostly used in combination with other options like PRP to provide the best results. This refreshes the dull skin and helps to induce brighter and glowing skin.

Microdermabrasion:

This modern technique uses a stream of fine crystals and a diamond tip to exfoliate the dead skin cells and reveal a fresh skin surface. This procedure helps the deep penetration of serum or other medication and reduces mild pigmentation. This procedure is safe and best for those looking for gradual outcomes with little to no recovery time.

Melasma in Women vs Men: Who Is More at Risk?

Melasma is much more common in women than in men. Female cases of melasma are 90% according to a study conducted by the American Academy of Dermatology. This is due to hormonal changes in women during pregnancy or the use of contraceptive medications. That’s why it is also called “Mask of Pregnancy”.

How Melasma Is Diagnosed by Dermatologists:

The diagnosis is simple and starts with a detailed skin examination by a qualified dermatologist. The expert will observe the pattern, color, and uneven brown patches on the skin. In most cases, the melasma can be identified visually, but some additional tools are also used to determine the extent of the condition. A wood’s lamp or dermascope is used to determine whether the pigment is superficial or deeper within the dermal layers. Sometimes a skin biopsy is performed if the diagnosis is unclear or uncertain.

Real Outcomes: See the Difference After Melasma Treatment
