Can eMatrix be used to treat melasma?

Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis. We see atrophic and hypertrophic scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to discuss the best treatment options for your type of skin. .

Ematrix can help melasma as it is a fractional biploar radiofrequency that helps prevent post inflammatory hyperpigmentation and is safer and darker skin types.  Best, Dr. Emer.

I would definitely not consider eMatrix for the treatment of your Melasma.  I would consult with a physician who specializes in Cosmelan since this is an amazing treatment.  Best, Dr. Green

eMatrix is not the primary modality I would use or think to use in a patient with melasma.Start with topicals, like Melarase AM and Melarase PM from Kare Skin and seek an in person evaluation from someone who uses fractional lasers or Clear and Brilliant laser. BestDr. Karamanoukian

eMatrix uses RF or RadioFrequency energy, melasma is a condition that causes your skin pigment cell to produce more pigment or melanin. I would consider the use of pico lasers, plus bleaching creams, and low strength chemical peels as the best method to treat melasma. Definitely not eMatrix.Dr Davin Lim Laser DermatologistBrisbane, Australia.
