MELASMA & PIGMENTATION · BRIGHT+ SERIES
Melasma doesn't scrub away, and the wrong treatment can make it darker. Our dermatologists build a plan that fades it gently and keeps it under control.
PDS BOARD-CERTIFIED DERMATOLOGISTS
OVERVIEW
Melasma shows up as brown or gray-brown patches, usually on the cheeks, forehead, upper lip or nose. It is common in Filipino skin.
Sun, heat and hormones make it worse, so it often comes back. Treatment is about fading the patches and keeping them from returning. It is not a one-time fix.
Strong or harsh treatments can make melasma darker. That is why a dermatologist should choose the treatment and the settings for your skin.
WHY IT WORKS
01
Your dermatologist checks the type and depth of your pigmentation first. Then they choose the treatment and how often you need it.
02
Most plans combine peels, a pigment laser or targeted injections over several sessions. This keeps your skin calm while the patches fade.
03
Daily sunscreen and the right home care are part of every plan. They help stop melasma from coming back.
