Comprehensive Understanding of Melasma
At Lougheed Laser Center, situated in the heart of Lougheed Town Centre - Burnaby, BC, we are committed to providing you with a deep understanding of Melasma. This common skin problem manifests as brown or grey-brown patches, primarily on the face. Most people experience it on the forehead, cheeks, upper lip, and chin, but it can appear anywhere sun exposure is a factor. Females are more susceptible than males and hormonal changes often trigger Melasma.
Causes of Melasma
Several factors can result in Melasma, including:
1. Hormonal changes: Pregnancy often triggers Melasma due to hormonal fluctuations.
2. Sun damage: The prolific ultraviolet (UV) light can accelerate the production of melanin, leading to Melasma.
3. Skin care products: Formulations that irritate the skin can make Melasma more likely.
