Greek in origin, the word “Melasma” loosely translates as “black spot”, a testament to the stubbornness of the condition.
Appearing most commonly across the forehead, cheeks and upper lip, Melasma is different from other forms of hyperpigmentation in that not only is it exacerbated by ultraviolet light, but it is hormonally-induced, making it extremely difficult to treat successfully.
¹Melasma can affect up to 33% of the population, women are at a much higher risk of having it than men.
15% to 50% of pregnant women experience Melasma (commonly referred to as “pregnancy mask” which usually fades post-pregnancy) and it is most common during a woman’s reproductive years, typically appearing between 20-40 years of age. Oral contraceptives can also put women at a higher risk of Melasma due to the increase in estrogen and progesterone, which are believed to be the hormones that contribute to the condition. Individuals with darker skin types are also more likely to experience Melasma due to the increased melanin in their skin. People with hypothyroidism can be at higher risk for Melasma as well, due to the hormonal imbalances caused by an underactive thyroid.
While it can occur at any time of the year, most individuals will experience Melasma over the summer months, when it is exacerbated by the heat and sun, and see it fade in the winter months. But regardless of the season or the weather, it’s extremely important to wear a broad-spectrum SPF every day to minimize the negative effects of UV radiation.
With the last days of summer fun in the sun behind us and the holidays looming ahead, many people are looking to laser treatments to fade their Melasma and improve their overall complexion.
If you are suffering from Melasma, just know that you’re not alone. And while there is no cure, it is treatable and controllable.
If you’re a patient looking to come up with a Melasma treatment plan that is right for you we are here to help.

There comes a day for all of us that we thought would never come – the day we look in the mirror and see an older person looking back at us. Despite the years marching by one after the other, somehow it always seems to take us by surprise.

As we age, we begin to lose the collagen, elastin, muscle, and yes, even bone, that gives our skin structure and keeps it looking firm and youthful. And it starts to happen much sooner than we think; ¹after the age of 20, a person produces about 1% less collagen in the skin each year, which adds up to 20% less collagen production in the skin by the age of 40. The results of the depletion of all these structures can present themselves in the form of , , slackness along the jawline, and sagging in the submental area, AKA the dreaded “ neck”.

I know, this all sounds very depressing. But I have some good news – you do have some control over slowing down the aging in your skin! SPF – It’s Not Just for Summer, wearing a broad-spectrum sunscreen every day will help prevent premature aging of the skin by protecting it from the collagen and elastin breakdown caused by UV overexposure. But even for the most SPF-diligent of us, we still have an uphill battle in combating time and gravity and need to pull out the big guns in the fight against the signs of aging with energy-based treatments that kickstart collagen and elastin.

Enter the Lutronic Genius®, the only 2nd generation radiofrequency microneedling device on the market. Safe for all skin types, Genius treatments help provide real, unparalleled outcomes by delivering thermal energy through micro-needles into the dermis, stimulating collagen and elastin production, for impressive and long-lasting results. And unlike other RF microneedling devices, Genius is the only one to provide real-time feedback to the practitioner, which ensures a more precise treatment for each patient.

How do I know if I have rosacea and how can I treat it?
If you suspect you have rosacea, it’s important to get a proper diagnosis. You can then discuss different options to help minimize its appearance.
While there is no cure for rosacea, the good news is that it is treatable with certain medications, products, and other modalities that can help slow down or halt the progression of the condition and keep it under control.

Whether you have been diagnosed with rosacea, or just experience similar symptoms like prominent vessels or frequent flushing in your skin, you can get significant, long-term results with laser treatments like the ones offered at our practice.
Our laser works by targeting the hemoglobin within the vessel, effectively ablating, or shrinking it so it is no longer visible and less prone to dilation.

This precision ensures that only the targeted vessel is impacted, leaving the surrounding skin intact, ensuring minimal downtime. Depending on the severity of your condition and the results you’re looking to achieve, several treatments may be required, but many patients see a noticeable difference after just one!
