The Science Behind Melasma


Listen Later

Melasma can cause visible effects on the skin's surface, resulting in hyperpigmentation, usually occurring as dark spots on the face. But melasma can also have other side effects, such as skin aging, inflammation, and vascular changes. So what exactly causes these melasma symptoms? To truly understand melasma's impact on the skin, we need to understand what happens below the skin's surface when people develop melasma.

The Skin Report is a podcast created to educate listeners on methods to improve skin health for people of all ethnicities and ages. This week's host Dr. Sethi continues with her October series featuring topics related to the skin condition melasma. In this episode, she explains the science behind melasma and how it affects the skin. She also describes how people of color should safely cleanse, exfoliate, and moisturize their skin to treat dermal melasma pigmentation. With proper knowledge, skin rejuvenation techniques, and anti-aging practices, people with melasma can effectively manage their skin condition.
