Looking for a Doctor in Northern Va, Washington D.C Metro Area or MD, Who Offers Melanage Peel?

Question

I am looking to get Melanage peel for my melasma.

Larry S. Nichter, MD, MS, FACS · Answer

Far more important than the technique is the skill and experience of your plastic surgeon. Choose your surgeon rather than the technique and let them explain why one technique may be better than another.  See the below link on some suggestions on finding the most qualified Plastic Surgeon for you.  Always insist on a board certified plastic surgeon.

In my opinion, the melanage peel helps melasma but the majority of improvement is seen with the take home Hydroquinone 4% cream with Retinol that is included in the melanage peel.  You have to use this cream for a month post peel to see any results and you could get the same resutls JUST using the cream.  I'd suggest looking into an IPL or Fraxel laser treatment both of which we also offer. Thanks!
