The dermatologist will determine the extent and nature of your melasma and will devise a treatment plan accordingly. Varying on a case-to-case basis, treatment may involve using one or more topical ointments with active ingredients to target the underlying cause of each patient\u2019s melasma. If triggered by genetic or hormonal variations, oral treatment may also be advised along with microdermabrasion. Some patients with more extensive discoloration may be advised to receive laser therapy for the removal of dark spots associated with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.royalclinicdubai.com\/en-ae\/laser-treatments\/melasma-treatment\/\">melasma<\/a> of a deeper nature.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Procedure\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Procedure:<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The procedure is painless and does not require locally administered anesthesia. Usually, the process is combined with other treatments to get the best results. Microdermabrasion involves clearing the top layer of your skin using a machine that gently exfoliates it by using an abrasive compound at high speed and then clears any remains using a vacuum. This procedure is short, usually less than an hour or so, but the result is a fresh layer of clearer skin. You may need additional sessions which will each reduce more and more discoloration. Combined with medication to counter any underlying symptoms such as hormonal changes and increasing intake of Vitamin C, most patients get satisfactory relief from melasma and the discoloration issues that come with it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since this is a painless procedure with almost no time required for recovery, it can be performed even during your lunch breaks. A topical care regime is usually advised post-procedure to enhance results and continuous improvement throughout the treatment. Remember that the procedure requires practical expertise from a certified dermatologist and may have more associated risks if performed by someone with inadequate knowledge and experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Aftercare\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aftercare:<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A significant result requires that you take precautions during and after your treatment.
