Melasma is a common skin disorder characterized by the appearance of freckle-like spots and flat patches of brown, blue, or gray color, particularly on the face, leading to uneven skin tone rather than premature aging. In some cases, these patches can also appear reddish and inflamed.
While melasma most commonly affects the face—including areas like the cheeks, nose, forehead, jawline, upper lip, and chin—it can also appear on other parts of the body, such as the shoulders. This condition is more prevalent in women than in men, and excessive sun exposure is a significant risk factor.
Fair-skinned individuals are generally less likely to develop melasma compared to those with medium to dark skin tones or those who tan easily. The persistent flat patches caused by melasma can be particularly challenging to manage.
Understanding Melasma and Its Types
Melasma is caused by melanocytes—the cells responsible for producing melanin, the pigment that gives skin its color. In response to sunlight, heat, ultraviolet (UV) radiation, or hormonal fluctuations, melanocytes may produce excess melanin, leading to hyperpigmented areas on the skin. Dermatologists categorize melasma into three types based on the depth of pigment deposition:
At Evenly Skin and Hair Clinic, we understand the physical and emotional impact of melasma. That’s why we offer advanced, personalized treatments delivered by a certified melasma specialist using USFDA-approved technologies.

For those considering effective treatment solutions, our clinic offers laser-based therapies, like Q-switched lasers, designed to break down melanin deposits with precision. We believe in complete transparency—melasma laser treatment cost at Evenly depends on factors such as the type of laser used, number of sessions required, and the depth of pigmentation. Our team will guide you with a customized plan and clearly outline the pricing during your consultation.

Our dermatologists offer a comprehensive approach to melasma treatment, providing a range of topical and oral medications tailored to your needs. These may include:
Note: It’s important to consult a dermatologist before using any skin lightening products, especially hydroquinone, as some can have side effects or require specific usage instructions.
A chemical peel is a controlled skin resurfacing procedure that involves applying a plant-based chemical solution to the affected area. This process removes dead skin cells, revealing smooth, undamaged skin while promoting collagen and elastin production. Chemical peels help eliminate melanin buildup, reduce pigment formation, and result in visibly brighter skin.
At Evenly Skin and Hair Clinic, our approach to treating pigmentation with chemical peels is based on delivering personalized solutions tailored to each individual’s unique skin type and pigmentation severity. Whether you have sensitive skin or severe pigmentation concerns, our experienced dermatologists will customize the peel to deliver optimal results while ensuring safety and comfort.
Laser treatment uses an advanced USFDA-approved Q-switched Nd:YAG laser that emits gentle pulses of light energy onto the targeted area. This process eliminates excess melanin, gradually lightening and evening out the skin tone.
At Evenly Skin and Hair Clinic, our expert dermatologists are highly trained to perform this procedure, ensuring optimal results and safety for our patients.
Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant with additional anti-melanogenic properties. Glutathione therapy involves the administration of glutathione through intravenous infusion to improve skin tone and brightness.
At Evenly Skin and Hair Clinic, our experts are highly trained to administer glutathione safely, minimizing any potential risks.
