Melasma Treatment in Dhaka

Melasma Treatment in Dhaka – Skinic Dermatology Centre

Welcome to Skinic Dermatology Centre, Dhaka’s leading specialist in melasma treatment. Under the experienced guidance of Dr. Asif Imran Siddiqui, we offer advanced, personalized care to help you effectively address melasma on the face and restore your skin’s natural radiance.

What is melasma?

Melasma is a common pigment‑disorder characterized by brown or grayish-brown patches, typically appearing symmetrically across the cheeks, forehead, nose, upper lip, and chin.

Often called the “mask of pregnancy,” it affects individuals with darker complexions—especially women experiencing hormonal shifts due to pregnancy, oral contraceptives, or thyroid issues.

Why is melasma so common in Bangladesh?

• Intense sun and humidity: Dhaka’s tropical climate accelerates melanin production.
• Genetic predisposition: Family history significantly increases susceptibility.
• Environmental stressors: Pollution, stress, and improper skincare exacerbate pigmentation.

Melasma is benign, but its appearance can be frustrating and affect self-confidence. At Skinic, we offer comprehensive solutions—from melasma removal treatment to long-term management.

What causes melasma and triggers flare-ups?

Melasma arises from melanocyte overactivity, influenced by:

• UV exposure (sunlight/heat)
• Hormonal fluctuations (pregnancy, birth control, thyroid)
• Genetic factors
• Skin irritation (harsh cosmetics, scrubbing)

Understanding these triggers is key to controlling melasma over time.

How we assess melasma

Your journey begins with an in-depth consultation with Dr. Asif Imran Siddiqui, who offers:

• Visual and dermatoscopic skin analysis
• Wood’s lamp exam to distinguish epidermal vs. dermal melasma
• MASI score assessment to gauge severity
• Review of hormonal history, sun exposure, skincare habits

This ensures your melasma treatment plan is tailored precisely for optimal results.

Best treatment for melasma on face: Our full‑spectrum approach

 At Skinic, we combine evidence-based modalities to target melasma at all levels:

1. Medical-grade topicals

A cornerstone in what is melasma management, we prescribe clinically proven creams like, Hydroquinone, Tretinoin, Azelaic acid, Kojic/vitamin C serums. These are often used in combination, such as Kligman formula or azelaic+tretinoin creams, which have been clinically shown to significantly reduce melasma.

2. Chemical peels

Supervised peels remove pigmented layers safely. Glycolic acid peels (AHA), Mandelic acid peels for sensitive skin, TCA peels for deeper pigmentation. Each is performed by Dr. Siddiqui to avoid complications and reduce recurrence.

3. Melasma laser treatment

Advanced laser therapies—such as low-fluence Q-switched and fractional lasers—break down melanin deeply. Q-switched lasers target stubborn pigmentation. Fractional resurfacing enhances tone and texture. Used judiciously, our lasers offer dramatic improvements without aggravating melasma.

4. In-office microneedling + PRP

Microneedling combined with PRP optimizes collagen production and pigment healing. It’s a gentle, natural approach to melasma removal treatment.

5. Oral tranexamic acid

For resistant melasma, oral tranexamic acid is prescribed under strict supervision. Local RCTs (e.g., at CMH Cumilla) have shown significant MASI score reductions. Tranexamic acid is also increasingly used topically for pigment control.
