I'm looking for tattoo removal laser treatment for my face .i have tried so many different tretments in the past ,from peels, to laser , and been told that malasma is very hard to treat and my only option is tattoo removal treatment laser .any recommendations of a doctor that does it in West Hollywood area ?
Answer: Melasma treatment Thank you for your question. I would recommend to start using triluma morning and night six weeks prior to laser treatment. Fractional treatment is very effective for suppressing discoloration and evening out skintone. Skinpen which is a microneedling device that would also be beneficial for getting rid of melasma. The microneedling treatment helps to wake up your natural growth factors, shrink your pores, fade discoloration and acne scars, and help increase collagen and elastin production. You would do a treatment every 4 weeks and stay out of the sun as much as possible and always wear spf 50 broad sprectrum. Always consult with your physician first before starting a treatment.

Answer: Melasma treatments with Pico Way In my experience, melasma is a challenge to treat but great results can be maintained. I suggest Pico Way laser treatments combined with hydroquinone therapy twice daily with Lytera and broad spectrum mineral based sunscreen like Elizabeth Arden Pro Factor SPF 50.Pico Way laser uses safe and gentle hollographic 3-D fractional technology to reduce appearance of pigment over the course of multiple treatments. Pico Way also does tattoo removal and the Resolve laser facial state of the art fractional hollographic technology safely improves the appearance of pigment, lines and wrinkles. I like to start my patients off with a microdermabrasion or VI Peel Precision Plus to prep the skin. This, coupled with home care regimen is an excellent treatment protocol that results in happy patient outcomes.

Answer: Melasma Treatment--Best Treatment Is Clear + Brilliant / Fraxel / Aerolase w Microneedling/prp Melasma needs a combination approach to get the best improvement and will need a series of treatments. In our practice, we combine Clear + brilliant, peels, microneedling/PRP, aerolase, and sometimes erbium laser (coollaser) to get the best results. Melasma will need life-long maintenance. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: PicoSure Focus is your answer You need PicoSure Focus lens as opposed to regular PicoSure. This treatment is amazing and does treat melasma, but it will take a few treatment sessions as well. To find an expert in your area I recommend visiting Picosure.com or cynosure.com and locating a physician near you. Your results will depend on the laser, how the laser is used and the experience of the physician providing it. The laser is simply a tool and every provider has their own way of using this tool. I am a top PicoSure provider in NYC and develop new treatment protocols and share them with Cynosure. I absolutely love this laser. It really changes lives. Hope this helps. Best, Dr.Avaliani
