Advanced Treatments to Reduce Melasma & Hyperpigmentation
Melasma is a common skin condition that causes brown or grayish patches to appear on the face, particularly on the cheeks, forehead, upper lip, and chin. It is often triggered by hormonal changes, sun exposure, and genetics. At PURE Medical Spa, we offer cutting-edge, non-invasive melasma treatments that help fade pigmentation, even out skin tone, and prevent future discoloration.
What Causes Melasma?
Melasma occurs when melanin-producing cells become overactive, leading to excess pigmentation in certain areas of the skin. Common triggers include:
- Hormonal Changes – Pregnancy, birth control, and hormone therapy can increase melanin production.
- Sun Exposure – UV rays stimulate melanin, worsening pigmentation.
- Genetics – Melasma is more common in people with darker skin tones.
- Inflammation & Skin Sensitivity – Harsh skincare products or treatments can trigger pigmentation.
- Heat & Environmental Factors – Excessive heat exposure can contribute to melasma flare-ups.
