Melasma & Hyperpigmentation

Aerolase Lasers’ Breakthrough Technology Helps Achieve Clearance

More than Temporary Fixes

Overview

The gray and brown spots of melasma can happen to anyone, but it is more common in women with darker complexions, those who have been pregnant or on hormonal birth control. Genetics and other medications also play a role in developing melasma and hyperpigmentation.

Usually found on sun-exposed areas of skin like the upper lip, cheeks, chin, and forehead, hyperpigmentation is not harmful to your health but can impact your self-esteem. The Aerolase laser has been proven to be a powerful treatment for melasma — even more effective than traditional treatments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Aerolase is an FDA-approved breakthrough laser technology used by licensed physicians for the effective treatment of melasma and hyperpigmentation. Performed in the comfort of our office, the process is painless and safe for patients of any age and skin type. Conventional melasma treatment is often complex, but with Aerolase laser therapy, JAAB patients achieve clearance with a safe, effective, and gentle treatment — and with fewer treatments.

The Aerolase 650-microsecond laser energy is delivered into the dermis and epidermis skin layers to disintegrate melanin deposits while reducing inflammation. Treatment is virtually pain-free with minimal risk of adverse outcomes, especially compared to traditional treatment options for melasma.

While many patients will see improvement after just one session, Aerolase laser treatment for melasma will yield the best results in 3-6 months.

For some patients, the affected area may darken before becoming lighter, but most will see the discoloration fade over a period of several weeks as the body absorbs the pigmented cells throughout the healing process.

Aerolase laser treatments are effective against acne, melasma and hyperpigmentation, loose, aging skin, rosacea, redness, visible veins, psoriasis plaques, nail fungus, ingrown hairs, and more.
