Melasma

Melasma is when freckle-like spots that are darker than your normal skin color develops on the cheeks, upper lip, and/or forehead. It commonly occurs with pregnancy and certain medications and is worsened by sun exposure. Our dermatologists are experts at customizing a treatment plan for your melasma. Treatment options may include prescription topical and oral medications, medical-grade skincare products, chemical peels, and other skin resurfacing techniques. Melasma can worsen if the correct treatment is not used for your skin. It is important to seek treatment from a board-certified dermatologist for optimal results.
