Condition Overview

What you need to know

Melasma is a common skin condition that causes brown or grayish pigmentation on the face, often appearing in symmetrical patterns. It can be a frustrating concern, affecting both appearance and self-esteem. At Deviva Skin Lab in Kelowna, we specialize in treating melasma, helping you achieve clearer, more even-toned skin with advanced treatments and personalized care. Our goal is to help you regain your confidence by addressing this condition with effective, targeted solutions.

Melasma is characterized by dark patches or spots, most commonly found on the cheeks, forehead, upper lip, and chin. It primarily affects women, especially those of darker skin types, but it can also occur in men. The condition is often triggered by hormonal changes, sun exposure, and genetics, with pregnancy (often referred to as the "mask of pregnancy") and birth control pills being common contributors.

Melasma can be difficult to treat due to its tendency to return, but with the right approach, significant improvement is possible. At Deviva Skin Lab, we offer a range of treatments to help reduce pigmentation and restore an even complexion, leaving your skin looking radiant and healthy.

What is Melasma?

Melasma is a skin condition that causes dark patches or hyperpigmentation, often resulting from an overproduction of melanin. These patches typically appear on the face, but they can also appear on the neck and forearms.

The main causes of melasma are sun exposure and hormonal changes, especially during pregnancy or when taking birth control. It can also be influenced by certain medications, genetics, and even stress. Although melasma is not harmful, it can affect your self-esteem and make you feel self-conscious about your appearance.

Customized Melasma Treatments at Deviva Skin Lab

At Deviva Skin Lab, we understand that melasma can be a challenging condition to manage. That’s why we offer customized treatment plans tailored to your specific skin type and concerns. Our advanced treatments are designed to lighten and brighten dark spots, reduce pigmentation, and restore a more even skin tone.

We offer a combination of professional treatments, which can help to reduce melasma and promote the regeneration of healthy skin. Our experts will work with you to develop a comprehensive treatment plan that targets the root causes of melasma, providing effective solutions that fit your needs.

Holistic Skin Care Approach

While professional treatments are key to managing melasma, we also take a holistic approach to skincare. We provide guidance on proper sun protection, as UV exposure can worsen melasma. Our team will recommend sunscreen and other protective skincare products to help prevent further pigmentation.

We also emphasize the importance of a healthy skincare routine that includes gentle cleansing, moisturizing, and the use of products designed to brighten and even skin tone. By combining in-clinic treatments with a tailored skincare regimen, we ensure that you can manage melasma and maintain beautiful, even-toned skin.

Commitment to Ongoing Care

Melasma treatment requires consistent care and patience, and at Deviva Skin Lab, we are committed to supporting you every step of the way. Our team will provide regular follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and adjust your treatment plan as needed.

We are always available to answer your questions, address concerns, and ensure you feel confident and informed throughout your journey. Our goal is to help you achieve and maintain clear, glowing skin that you can feel proud of.
