What is Melasma?

Melasma is a perennial hyperpigmentation disorder which is a result of excess production of melanin in the skin. It is brought about by several factors such as hormonal changes, excessive exposure to the sun, genetic factors, and inflammation of the skin. The hormonal changes also make women more susceptible to melasma, especially when they are pregnant or on birth control pills.

Causes of Melasma:

The development of melasma is caused by a number of factors:

• Hormonal Imbalance
• The Sun Exposure
• Genetics 
• Skin Inflammation 
• Medications

Types of Melasma Treatment in Islamabad:

At JJ Aesthetic, solutions to melasma are customized according to the type of skin, severity, and the underlying cause. Our procedures are pain-free, FDA-approved and done by qualified dermatologists.

Topical Treatments:

We prescribe medicated creams and serums that have hydroquinone, kojic acid, tretinoin, azelaic acid, or corticosteroids. These assist in lightening dark areas and regulating the melanin.

Chemical Peels:

Glycolic acid, lactic acid or salicylic acid chemical peels, peel the dead cells of the skin and stimulate the process of skin renewal. They enhance the general skin color, minimize pigmentation and brighten the skin.

Microdermabrasion:

It is a non-invasive exfoliation therapy where fine crystals are used to exfoliate the upper layer of the skin, achieving the growth of new skin cells and slow pigmentation.

Laser Therapy:

The laser Therapy in Islamabad that we employ are advanced Q-Switched Nd:YAG lasers and fractional lasers that specifically focus on melanin clusters and leave other tissues intact. Laser treatment is very efficient in treating melasma.

Microneedling with PRP:

Microneedling makes tiny holes on the skin and the holes enhance more profound penetration of skin-lightening serums. It increases collagen growth and accelerates the healing process in combination with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP).

Mesotherapy:

In mesotherapy, lightening serums and vitamins are placed in the dermis through an injection in helping to break pigmentation and help in creating a smooth tone on the skin.

Oral Medications:

Dermatologists in Islamabad in some cases prescribe oral tranexamic acid or antioxidant supplements to prevent melasma internally.
