Melasma is a common chronic and recurrent disorder of hyperpigmentation that is caused by over functioning of melanocytes, which are cells that deposit melanin in the first and second layer of the skin. It is particularly common in women of reproductive age and in the areas with high amounts of sun exposure such as the face, arms, neck, and chest. Melasma can be challenging to treat therefore, an appropriate therapy such as the Aerolase Neo Elite (safe for all skin color)and skincare regimen requires a comprehensive assessment.
In order to achieve optimal results, combination therapy of the Aerolase NeoElite Laser (safe for all skin color), and skincare products are recommended such as ZO Skin Health, SkinBetter & Alastin.

Treatment Times
- LENGTH: Every patient's needs are different, therefore our focus is providing protocols for therapeutic and daily skincare regimes specific to each individual. Once a therapeutic such as the Aerolase Neo Elite(safe for all skin color) & skincare regime has been prescribed, recommendations to continue to have improved skincare health will be implemented.
- EXPECT RESULTS: Results vary patient to patient based on their skincare needs. We have seen improved skin health in as short as 2-6 weeks, however it is best to adhere to your regime for a recommended period of time.

Typically, melasma and continuous skincare use is recommended for optimal results. Results vary person to person.

Upper-Mid Face Enhancement
The Upper-Mid portion of the face, often referred to as anchors of the face by us at One Clinic MD, is the most important part of the facial structure with respect to support, foundation and contour.
Lip Enhancement
Lip enhancement is one of the most complex and difficult procedures performed and must not be taken lightly, as multiple factors, including a person’s lip structure in a neutral and dynamic position, can affect the results.
Lower-Face Enhancement
The lower portion of the face, including chin, jaw and lips is the integrity of a person’s face. Injectable fillers are a great alternative to surgical interventions and implants to treat a weak or recessed jaw and chin.
