What Is Melasma?

Melasma is a common pigmentation disorder that causes brown or gray patches to appear on the skin, primarily on the face. It occurs when there is an excessive amount of melanin on the skin when it is exposed to the sun. The most common areas where melasma appears include the bridge of the nose, forehead, cheeks, and the upper lip. Melasma can also appear on other parts of the body that are exposed to sunlight including the forearms, neck, and shoulders. BYou Laser Clinic offers several treatments that are effective for treating melasma, including chemical peels, microneedling, the PRP facial, and the laser skin treatment.

Find the Best Melasma Laser Treatment For You

Chemical Peels

A chemical peel is a very deep treatment for melasma. During chemical peel treatments, we apply different ingredients that will significantly improve discolored skin. Our chemical peel melasma treatment removes layers of skin so new skin can develop. Book a consultation at one of our NYC locations in Brooklyn, Manhattan, or Long Island, and one of our licensed aestheticians will customize the perfect treatment for your melasma.

PRP Facial

Made popular by Kim Kardashian, the “Vampire Facial” uses PRP to jumpstart your body’s natural cell production power, using concentrated proteins found in blood. Click to learn more!

Laser Skin Treatment

BYou’s non-invasive laser genesis treatment is a great solution to problems like uneven skin and discoloration. Our certified aesthetician will use a specialized laser to gently heat the skin, stimulating collagen growth under the surface.

Ultrasonic Cavitation

Ultrasonic cavitation is a body treatment that uses ultrasonic waves to create tiny bubbles around fat deposits under the skin. The bubbles then pop, breaking up the fat deposits and changing them into glycerol and free fatty acids.

Microneedling

BYou’s minimally invasive microneedling treatment offers a safe and effective way to tighten skin on the face. Our aestheticians use a specialized device to create microscopic injuries in the skin, promoting collagen and elastin production. The result is improved skin texture and firmness, with a reduction in acne scars, fine lines and wrinkles, and pore size.

Our Technology

Melasma can be stubborn, but our strategy is smart. At Byou, we use a thoughtful blend of gentle chemical peels and Laser Genesis to even skin tone without triggering rebound pigment. It's a calm, customized path to clarity, supported by your ongoing skincare routine.

What Our Clients Say

How to Prepare and What to Expect

Before Treatment

Consistent SPF is a must—start using it daily at least one week prior. Avoid aggressive exfoliants.

After Treatment

Skin can look brighter over time—stay hydrated, continue SPF, and let us guide your creams.

Frequency

Expect 4–6 sessions one month apart; seasonal check-ins help us tweak your plan for lasting clarity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is melasma, and how does BYou approach it safely?

Melasma presents as patchy brown or gray-brown pigment, often influenced by hormones and sun exposure. Because it can be reactive, BYou prioritizes barrier-friendly steps and pigment-calming treatments first. Depending on your skin, we may use gentle, repeated Chemical Peels, non-ablative dermal heating like Laser Genesis to support even tone, and home care guidance. We’ll also review triggers and sunscreen strategies. For other pigment types, see our broader Pigmentation page. Book a consultation to assess your pattern.

Expect gradual brightening over weeks rather than overnight changes. Many clients complete a series of four to six clinic treatments spaced about a month apart, with maintenance based on season and sun exposure. We’ll track progress and adjust strength carefully to avoid rebound darkening. Combining in-clinic care with strict SPF and brightening home products provides the most reliable gains. Visit a BYou Laser Clinic near you to plan your cadence.

Yes—our protocols are customized for every Fitzpatrick skin type. We choose conservative peel strengths, avoid overly aggressive settings, and emphasize barrier protection. If you have mixed concerns, we can incorporate gentle hydration with the Aquapure Facial once skin is stable. Your provider will set realistic expectations and a stepwise approach.
