    What Is Melasma?

    Melasma is a type of hyperpigmentation that affects the skin when estrogen and progesterone hormones trigger the melanocytes, increasing melanin production. Excessive and prolonged sun exposure further aggravates this.

    It is also known as chloasma or the mask of pregnancy and primarily affects women in their reproductive years(20-40 years of age), mainly those using oral contraceptives or other hormonal medications. Men also get affected, while studies show that women are nine times more prone to melasma.

    What Are The Causes Of Melasma?

    The two main reasons for melasma are continuous exposure to harmful UV rays and hormonal imbalances. The following are additional factors that can worsen it:

    Where Does Melasma Most Commonly Occur?

    People with melasma will notice brownish or bluish patches in the following areas:

    • Upper arms
    • Shoulders
    • On either side of the nose
    • Upper lip area
    • Forehead
    • Cheeks
    • Jawline
    • Neck area

    What Are the Types Of Melasma?

    Here are the three types of melasma based on the layer of the skin that is affected:

    Epidermal Melasma

    it is the most common type of melasma caused by the overproduction of melanin in the top layer of skin. You will notice dark brown patches, often with very well-defined boundaries. It responds well to treatment.

    Dermal Melasma

    You will see bluish patches with no clear borders in the deeper layers of the skin. This type of melasma does not respond very well to treatment and is thus challenging to treat.

    Mixed Melasma

    This is the most difficult type of melasma to treat. You will see both brown and bluish discolouration in this type of melasma.

    Signs And Symptoms Of Melasma

    You may notice the following signs on your face:

    • Brown or blue patches
    • Inflamed or reddened spots
    • Tiny spots that resemble freckles
    • Skin discolouration with defined or undefined borders
    • Symmetrical patches on the chin, cheeks and forehead

    How Is Melasma Diagnosed?

    Dermatologists do either one or both of the following to diagnose melasma:

    They will clinically examine your skin discolouration using the Wood’s Lamp, whose blue light will help identify how deep your melasma is.
    If they are unable to identify after this examination, they will conduct a biopsy for the correct diagnosis.

    What Is The Treatment For Melasma At Kolkata?

    Melasma can be challenging to treat and often requires a combination of treatments. Top dermatologists at Oliva’s Kolkata clinics conduct a one-on-one consultation to understand the cause, type, location and severity of melasma. Based on this, they will recommend one or more of the following treatments:

    Topical Medications

    Oliva’s doctors prescribe topical medications to treat melasma and prevent it from worsening. They give you creams with 2-4% hydroquinone, which is effective when used for at least 3-4 months. Another topical retinoid, effective in bleaching pigmented skin and reducing melasma, is Tretinoin. You may also receive gels, creams, and lotions with ingredients like Vitamin C, kojic acid, glycolic acid, azelaic acid, and arbutin, which bring down melanin synthesis and, thus, reduce discolouration. You must follow the doctor’s instructions correctly to avoid any side effects.

    Oral Medications

    Based on the severity of your hyperpigmentation, your dermatologist may recommend using tranexamic acid, an oral medication, to see the desired results. They will also analyse your hormonal condition and may suggest changes in the medication if they are aggravating your melasma.Besides this, Oliva also has advanced procedural treatments that our doctors may suggest for the best results:

    View Details

    Chemical Peels

    These are an effective solution for epidermal melasma, where Oliva’s dermatologists perform controlled exfoliation of the top layers of your skin with plant-based extracts. They use glycolic and kojic acid on the affected areas to give you an even skin tone. Your doctor may recommend several tailor-made sessions for the best results.

    Laser Treatment

    Oliva’s doctors recommend this treatment for deeper melasma that is unresponsive to other medications or chemical peels. They use the most advanced USFDA-approved, Q-switched Nd:YAG technology on a specific wavelength to penetrate deeper into the skin, which targets and breaks down melanin deposits. Your body’s immune system releases them. This process does not affect the surrounding skin and requires no downtime.

    Adult women with dark skin, pregnant women and those with a positive family history of the condition are especially prone to melasma. Prolonged sun exposure and hormonal pills can worsen it further.

    No, melasma is not cancerous. However, seeing a dermatologist and diagnosing melasma accurately is critical.

    Though melasma caused due to pregnancy might fade away, it is largely a chronic condition that lasts for at least 3-4 months. When you opt for treatment, the results depend on the plan, which should be suitable and based on the cause, type, and depth of your melasma.

    No, melasma is not painful.

    There is no scientific research proving that certain foods can cause melasma. However, your dermatologist may prescribe a vitamin D-rich diet to improve skin health.

    Melasma develops over a period of time, aggravating as time passes and worsening if left untreated.

    In the initial stages, melasma may appear as tiny spots resembling freckles. However, freckles and melasma are two different hyperpigmentation conditions and require unique treatment approaches.
