Your skin’s natural coloring, known as pigmentation, contributes to a smooth and clean complexion. However, conditions like melasma and hyperpigmentation can lead to uneven or blotchy skin tones, potentially causing self-consciousness. Feinstein Dermatology, serving the Delray Beach, FL community, specializes in medical dermatology and offers a variety of solutions to address pigmentation issues. Trust our skilled team to guide you toward a more confident and even skin tone.
What Is Melasma?
Melasma is a condition that causes your skin to progressively change its color or pigmentation, usually manifesting as tan, brown, or gray spots. Melasma tends to be most noticeable on the forehead, cheeks, and upper lip. Overexposure to the sun, as well as elevated estrogen levels, can trigger this condition. Melasma does not cause any pain, but it can compromise your self-confidence.
Melasma Treatment
Melasma can typically be controlled or prevented simply by wearing adequate sun protection. Additionally, women can decrease their risk level by switching to non-hormonal birth control methods. If you experience melasma symptoms, your first step is to seek a diagnosis from one of our board-certified dermatologists. We will provide an individualized treatment plan to restore your skin’s smooth, balanced tone through topical medications, microneedling, laser therapy, or a combination of both.
What Is Hyperpigmentation?
Hyperpigmentation is a term used to denote any kind of skin discoloration, particularly areas that become darker than others. Some common examples of hyperpigmentation include age spots, sun spots, and freckles. Many factors, including inflammation, sun exposure, and more, can cause pigmentation issues.
Hyperpigmentation Treatment
Our board-certified dermatology team will evaluate your skin, take stock of your medical history, and provide you with a diagnosis and treatment plan. Depending on the location, type, and severity of your pigmentation issues, treatments can include topical medications, laser therapy, microneedling, and chemical peels. We can renew your complexion and revitalize your self-confidence through the right treatment plan.
