Treatments for hyperpigmentation include the Melanage Skin Brightening System which is a superficial peel designed to improve the texture and appearance of hyperpigmented skin including Melasma.  It involves a medicated masque and an at-home skin care regimen, which stimulates collagen production, improve skin tone, texture and can diminish fine line and pigmentation.  This is a masque that is compounded the day of treatment and applied by a licensed Medical Aesthetician.  The masque is worn for the appropriate amount of time and removed at home.   Although not all patient’s experience this, but there is some redness, flaking during the course of a few days.  The at-home skin care regimen provides products to help with these issues.

The Mini Melanage Skin Brightening System is different from the Melanage.  The Mini Melanage Peel is designed to be administered in a series of 4 to 6 in office treatments every 3 to 4 weeks.  This is a masque that is compounded the day of treatment and applied by a licensed Medical Aesthetician.  The masque is worn for the appropriate amount of time and removed at home. With the Mini Melanage Peel there is less redness and flaking, but again this is not always the case.  With this peel also provides an at-home skin care products.

These peels are designed to improve the texture and appearance of hyperpigmented skin.  Although most patients experience peeling of their skin, not every patient will notice this.  If you do not notice actual peeling, please know that you are still receiving all the benefits mentioned before: stimulation of collagen production, improvement of skin tone, texture and the diminishment of fine lines, pigmentation and breakouts.
