Melasma and hyperpigmentation are types of skin discoloration that cause an uneven skin tone. At our Radiant Skin Aesthetic & Beauty Studio locations in Zionsville and Danville, IN, we offer two effective treatments, the MOXI laser, and HALO laser treatments, to perfect the complexion, eliminate discoloration, and give you a newfound sense of confidence in your skin.
Melasma and Hyperpigmentation Treatments
Melasma and hyperpigmentation can affect people of all ages. While the aging process can contribute to skin discoloration, other factors do as well, including hormonal fluctuations, pregnancy, excessive sun exposure, the side effects of medication, health conditions, and lifestyle. However, once the signs of discoloration appear on your skin, they’re very difficult to treat with topical solutions alone.
If you’re suffering from melasma and hyperpigmentation, whether it’s mild or more severe, we can help. We offer two effective treatments designed to eliminate discolored skin cells to promote a healthier and more uniform complexion. You’ll see results after just one treatment, and your skin will continue to improve after each treatment. We can design treatment plans that include MOXI and HALO treatments to enhance your treatment results.
MOXI Laser
The MOXI laser is a preventative treatment tailored for younger patients who want to invest in their skin, slow or prevent the signs of aging, and treat existing skin imperfections, like lines, wrinkles, large pores, hyperpigmentation, and melasma. Unlike many laser treatments, the MOXI laser delivers a skin rejuvenating treatment to gently yet effectively treat common skin concerns and promote healthy skin without significant downtime.
What Should I Expect From the Treatment?
The MOXI laser treatments take 15 to 90 minutes from start to finish, based on the size and number of areas you want to address. The treatment is comfortable, and we can apply pre-treatment numbing cream as needed to ensure an optimal treatment experience. You may feel a warming sensation as the treatment head delivers non-ablative energy into your skin to rejuvenate your complexion.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Most patients need three to four treatments for the best results. Once we evaluate your skin and determine what you want to address within your unique treatment plan, we can give you a better idea of how many sessions it will take to achieve your ideal results.
When Will I See the Results?
Patients can expect immediate results after the initial treatment and more noticeable results within four to five days.
Is There Downtime?
One of the many benefits of MOXI laser treatments is that there’s minimal downtime if any. You can schedule treatments year-round to rejuvenate your skin, treat current hyperpigmentation and melasma, and prevent its future reoccurrence.
As with most professional skincare treatments, it’s important to avoid sun exposure in the days following your treatment and use quality sunscreen when exposed to the sun. However, you won’t have to plan time off work or several days of recovery after your treatment.
Am I a Good Candidate?
If you’re looking to refresh your skin, target discoloration, smooth lines and wrinkles, improve the appearance of minor skin laxity, improve your skin texture, and develop a more even skin tone, a MOXI laser treatment plan may be the perfect option for you. We can evaluate your skin during your initial consultation to learn more about your ultimate skincare goals and customize your treatment plan accordingly.
HALO Laser
The HALO laser treatment is a high-end resurfacing treatment designed to address visible aging and discoloration. It can target and eliminate sunspots, fine lines, wrinkles, melasma, and hyperpigmentation. The HALO device’s laser technology uses non-ablative and ablative wavelengths to target different depths of the skin tissue.
Aside from being an excellent solution to treat and eliminate melasma and hyperpigmentation, it can also help smooth acne scars, lines, and wrinkles, eliminate pigmented lesions, shrink large pores, and reverse sun damage and dyschromia.
What Should I Expect From the Treatment?
Compared to other fractional laser treatments, the HALO laser delivers a tolerable treatment. We can apply a pre-treatment numbing solution to your skin to ensure that you maintain optimal comfort. Treatments take 15 to 30 minutes from start to finish.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Most patients need one to two treatments for optimal results. We will design your unique treatment plan when you come in for your initial consultation. Maintenance treatment can be scheduled annually to maintain healthy skin over time.
When Will I See the Results?
Patients can expect to see results after one treatment, and the most visible results will be evident within one week of the initial treatment. Results will continue to improve over time as the body produces more collagen in the treatment area.
Is There Downtime?
Since we can customize this treatment and perform a lighter or deeper treatment, downtime varies based on each patient’s treatment plan. You’ll be able to return to your normal routine after a light treatment and apply makeup the next day. If you want a deeper treatment, you’ll have to plan around a few days of downtime. We will give you instructions about how to care for your skin after your treatment is over.
Am I a Good Candidate?
If you’re looking for a powerful treatment to eliminate skin discoloration and the different types of hyperpigmentation and melasma that affect your skin and don’t want to plan around significant downtime to improve your skin, you may be a good candidate for a HALO laser treatment plan. Since this treatment can be combined with the MOXI laser for optimal results, we can give you more details about each during your initial consultation.
Achieve a Clear, Uniform Complexion
You don’t have to live with skin discoloration or use different cosmetic products to hide your melasma and hyperpigmentation to create the appearance of a uniform skin tone. Instead, you can achieve the real thing with a treatment plan that uses MOXI or HALO laser treatments. We can help you perfect your skin during a quick, painless treatment process that delivers real and noticeable results.
