What procedures can be done for skin of color (Asian), to remove hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and melasma without causing more hyperpigmentation and dark spots?
Answer: Multiple treatments such as LaseMD and Cosmelan peel can help address these skin concerns Our office has many different treatments for scars depending on the depth of atrophy or hypertrophy. Scars require a combination approach using our HI DEF protocol which uses a combination of lasers, topical scar modulation, and RF treatments to pixelate scars, improve contour, reduce hyperpigmentation, and improve the visibility of the scars so that they are no longer visible in ambient light. Everyone has a unique pattern of scarring and we employ our HIDEF technique to improve texture, color, contour, and topography. We often use a combination of treatments that begin with a careful examination to examine the micro texturing of the acne scars. Atrophic scars and indented scars can benefit from injectable fillers such as Radiesse, Sculptra, and Restylane with or without subcision to remove tethered scars and atrophic depression. Hyper-redness in scars can be improved with V beam laser, Excel V, BBL, IPL, and Venus RF to improve the redness and reduce the visibility of deep scars. Fractional Thulium laser and clear & brilliant can also reduce the inflammation and redness of the scar when combined with topical therapy. Fractional lasers such as Fraxel, erbium, and CO2 laser can be combined with radio frequency and also fractional RF to improve textual issues and microtopography. Subcision and TCA cross are also used for deep ice pick scars and narrow valley scars in order to improve the micro texture. Above all, our combination approach with our clinical nurses and board-certified plastic surgeons can improve the quality of your skin by using at home Melarase creams combined with PRP treatments in our office to improve your skin quality and tone. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an experienced team of experts in order to reduce your scarring.

Answer: PicoSure A great skin treatment to address hyperpigmentation, collagen stimulation, scarring, skin texture irregularity and melasma is the PicoSure laser! This laser uses pressure and not heat, so it is safe to use on all skin types. Melasma is more tricky to treat and cannot be permanently removed, so suppression of the melanocytes is important and can be done with the PicoSure laser, make sure to avoid IPL or any other lasers that use heat since it can worsen the melasma.
