Effective pigmentation management means understanding that not all pigmentation is the same. While some types, like sun spots, may respond well to laser therapy, hormonal pigmentation such as melasma often requires a more comprehensive strategy.

For melasma, a combination approach may be considered, potentially including laser, oral tranexamic acid, and topical hydroquinone, to manage this chronic condition from multiple angles.

Correct diagnosis is key. A consultation with a cosmetic physician is essential to determine the nature of your pigmentation and create a personalised management plan.

Menopause changes your skin but understanding why empowers you to respond with confidence.

As oestrogen declines, collagen reduces rapidly, leading to dryness, laxity and more visible lines. These changes are common and valid, and with the right approach, skin health can be supported through every stage.

Let us create a personalised plan to help your skin stay strong, hydrated and radiant.

Many women experience changes in their skin during the perimenopausal and menopausal periods, and for some, this can include the re emergence or worsening of acne. This is often referred to as hormonal acne and typically occurs due to shifting hormone levels, particularly a decrease in oestrogen and a relative increase in androgens.

These hormonal fluctuations can lead to increased sebum (oil) production, which may contribute to clogged pores and the development of inflammatory acne, often appearing along the jawline, chin, and neck.

Managing menopausal acne requires a considered approach. It is not about a quick fix, but rather a long term strategy tailored to your individual skin. Treatment options can range from specific topical agents to oral medications. A comprehensive consultation with a cosmetic physician is the essential first step to explore the most appropriate and effective management plan for you. This will include a thorough discussion about your skin concerns, medical history, and the potential benefits and risks of any proposed treatment.

1064 nm laser ≠ 1064 nm laser

Same wavelength. Different technology. Different outcomes.

Long-pulse 1064 nm
• Delivers controlled heat
• Targets blood vessels
• Reduces redness and vascular lesions
• Works by thermal coagulation

Ultra-short pulse 1064 nm
• Delivers high peak energy
• Targets excess pigment
• Breaks pigment into smaller particles
• Works by photoacoustic effect

Why this matters:
Using the wrong laser = poor results or unnecessary risk.
Using the right one or combining both appropriately leads to safer, more effective treatment.

Laser results depend on technology, settings, and clinical judgement, not just the wavelength.

Understanding Melasma
Melasma is one of the most common pigmentation concerns we see in clinic. It appears as patchy brown or greyish discolouration on the cheeks, forehead, upper lip, or chin, and is more prevalent in women.
Common triggers include UV and visible light exposure, hormonal changes (such as pregnancy or certain medications), genetics, and skin type. This is why melasma often worsens during the Australian summer months.
Melasma is a chronic condition. There is no cure, but it can be effectively managed. The cornerstone of any management plan is diligent daily sun protection, including a broad spectrum high SPF sunscreen, even on cloudy days. Tinted sunscreens with iron oxide offer additional protection from visible light.
There is no one size fits all approach. Treatment depends on your skin type, depth of pigmentation, and individual triggers. A thorough consultation is the first step to understanding your skin and creating a personalised plan.

After weight loss, it is common to experience some skin laxity. Ultraformer III is an advanced, non invasive technology that can help to address this concern, as well as target stubborn pockets of fat, such as submental fat (the area under the chin).

Ultraformer III utilises High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) to deliver precise energy deep into the skin, creating a thermal effect that stimulates the body’s natural collagen production process. This leads to a gradual tightening and lifting of the skin over time.

For submental fat, the HIFU energy can be focused at a deeper level to specifically target and break down fat cells, which are then naturally processed and eliminated by the body. This allows for a more contoured and defined jawline.

If you are concerned about skin laxity after weight loss or stubborn submental fat, we invite you to join us for a consultation with Dr Tina Fang to discuss whether Ultraformer III is a suitable option for you.

Melasma is a common skin condition that causes brown or greyish patches to appear on the skin, most often on the face. While the exact cause is not always clear, it is often linked to hormonal changes, sun exposure, and genetics. It is important to note that melasma is a chronic condition, and management often requires a long term approach.

One approach to managing melasma involves a combination of oral and topical treatments. This may include oral tranexamic acid and a short term course of topical hydroquinone. These are prescription medications and should only be used under the guidance of a qualified medical practitioner.

It is important to understand that individual results may vary, and not all treatments are suitable for everyone. A thorough consultation with a cosmetic physician is essential to determine the most appropriate management plan for your specific needs and skin type. This will also involve a discussion of the potential risks and side effects associated with any proposed treatment.
