Introduction
Laser treatment can remove melasma from the face, primarily using advanced laser equipment. It enables intense pulsed light to rapidly penetrate deep into the skin, selectively breaking down melanin. At the same time, it accelerates skin metabolism, helping effectively eliminate pigmentation from the body, thereby achieving significant lightening of melasma. Sun protection is necessary when going outdoors.

Many people develop melasma on their face due to inadequate skincare or prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. This condition can affect one's appearance. How can you remove melasma from the face?

How to Remove Melasma from the Face

Laser treatment can effectively remove facial melasma. This method uses advanced laser equipment to deliver intense pulsed light that rapidly penetrates deep into the skin, selectively breaking down melanin pigment. It also enhances the skin's metabolic function, helping to eliminate pigmentation from the body and effectively fading melasma. Usually, a noticeable lightening effect can be seen after just one laser session. However, to achieve optimal results, doctors typically recommend 3–6 treatment sessions, with each session spaced about three months apart. The treatment offers satisfactory fading results, is convenient (you can resume daily activities immediately), and does not interfere with normal life.

Photorejuvenation (photofacial) can also effectively treat melasma. This treatment works by using intense pulsed light that directly penetrates the surface layer of the skin to reach deeper layers, effectively lightening pigmentation and brightening the complexion.

When going outdoors, make sure to protect your skin from the sun by using an umbrella or wearing a wide-brimmed hat to prevent UV exposure. Avoid consuming foods high in artificial pigments, and keep your skin well-hydrated. We hope this information has been helpful. Wishing you good health and happiness!
