Melasma Treatment Brisbane

Restore your skin’s radiance and confidence with advanced melasma treatments at Injex Clinics.

Melasma is a common skin condition that appears as blotchy, brown or grey-brown patches most often on the face. It’s typically triggered by sun exposure, hormones, or heat, and is more common in women. While harmless, melasma can be persistent and emotionally frustrating. At Injex Clinics, we offer targeted, evidence-based treatments to reduce pigmentation and restore an even, radiant complexion.

What is Melasma?

Melasma is a common skin condition that causes patchy brown or grey-brown pigmentation, typically appearing on the face particularly the cheeks, upper lip, forehead, and nose. It’s more common in women and individuals with darker skin tones, especially those who live in sun-exposed climates like Queensland.

What causes Melasma?

Melasma is triggered by a combination of factors, including:

• Hormonal changes: Often associated with pregnancy (called the “mask of pregnancy”), contraceptive use, or hormone replacement therapy.
• Sun exposure: UV light stimulates melanin production, worsening pigmentation.
• Heat and infrared light: Even without UV, heat exposure can worsen melasma.
• Genetics: A family history of melasma increases your risk.
• Skin inflammation: Irritation from harsh skincare or treatments can trigger pigment response.

Unlike traditional pigmentation, melasma often involves deeper dermal layers, making it more complex to treat.
