Signature Facials & Skin Renewal
Melasma Treatment
Uneven pigment rarely fades on its own. This brightening protocol works on melasma patch by patch — honest, progressive care toward a clearer, more even complexion.
Skin, first
Every facial at Aileen's Beauty begins the same way: by reading your skin, not a menu. Products, pressure and pacing are chosen for the face in the chair — and you leave with care instructions written for you.
What to expect
- A one-on-one consultation before anything touches your skin
- A private treatment room — never shared, never rushed
- Aftercare guidance tailored to your skin and routine
Progressive, patch by patch
Melasma is stubborn and it is honest work to say so. This is a brightening protocol delivered over a series of appointments, targeting uneven pigment gradually rather than promising to erase it. Progress is assessed between sessions and the plan adjusts to what your skin actually does.
Sun protection is half the treatment
Whatever happens in the treatment room can be undone outside it. UV exposure is the single biggest driver of pigment returning, so daily sun protection is not an upsell here — it is the part of the plan you own, and without it the sessions work against a rising tide.
Straight answers
Common questions
- Can melasma be cured?
- No, and any studio promising otherwise is overselling. Melasma is a chronic pigment condition that is managed rather than cured — treatment aims to lighten and even the appearance over a series of sessions, with maintenance and daily sun protection to hold the result. For a medical diagnosis or prescription options, see a dermatologist.
- How many sessions does melasma treatment take?
- It is a series rather than a single appointment, and the number depends on how deep and how widespread the pigment is. An honest range is given after your skin is assessed in person, not from a photograph or over the phone.
- Will it come back?
- It can, particularly with sun exposure, hormonal changes or pregnancy. That is the nature of the condition rather than a failure of the treatment, which is why maintenance and sun protection are discussed as part of the plan from the start.
