Frequently Asked Questions

Melasma is a chronic condition that can improve significantly with the right treatment, although recurrence is possible. Our goal is to control pigmentation, improve the appearance of the skin and maintain the results in the long term.

The first changes can be seen between 4 and 8 weeks, although results vary depending on the type of melasma, its severity and each patient's individual response. Generally, several weeks of treatment and a maintenance plan are required to preserve the improvement.

Because melasma does not depend only on visible pigmentation. Hormonal, inflammatory, vascular and environmental factors are also involved. Depigmenting creams can help, but they are not always enough to control all the mechanisms involved. That is why a medical evaluation and a personalized treatment plan are important.

Not all melasma has the same characteristics. At our clinic we perform a medical evaluation with specialized equipment and facial analysis with artificial intelligence (AI), which complement the evaluation of your skin. With this information we can establish a personalized protocol that may include topical treatments, oral medications when indicated, and other specific measures.

Not all laser treatments are suitable for patients with melasma. Some procedures, especially those that cause inflammation or excessive heat in the skin, can worsen pigmentation and cause a rebound effect. That is why, before any procedure, it is important to have a medical evaluation to determine which treatments are safe and which should be avoided according to the characteristics of your skin.
