Numerous individuals deal with melasma at some point, which occurs when irregular patches of darkened skin appear on the face, neck, and forearms. These gray, tan, or brown spots usually develop evenly around the brows, cheeks, nose, chin, or upper lip. Melasma develops more frequently among females with darker skin tones and can be caused by UV exposure or hormones, such as during menopause and pregnancy. We treat melasma at JB Skin & Laser with Alma's Harmony® XL PRO laser. This minimally invasive treatment works through powerful light energy to help diminish the visibility of pigmented areas occurring melasma.

Laser Melasma Treatment FAQ
What causes melasma?
Melasma can occur during any stage in a person's life. It's commonly believed to be caused by hormonal changes, including those experienced with birth control medications and pregnancy. Additional factors often associated with melasma are UV damage, stress, and familial history.
How does laser treatment for melasma work?
To perform melasma treatment with the Harmony XL PRO laser, your technician will focus a healing energy beam into darkly pigmented areas on the top layer of your skin. The light will gently work to break down pigmentation, which your body can absorb. Even though these areas could become darker initially, they will likely fade after a week.
Does melasma come back after laser treatment?
Even though laser procedures can work to lessen the appearance of melasma, new hyperpigmented patches may appear in the future. Several procedures might be scheduled to help lengthen your outcomes.
What is the cost of laser melasma treatment?
At JB Skin & Laser, the cost of melasma treatment with lasers is determined according to individual skin conditions. Our team will tailor a treatment strategy to help fit your goals and discuss the easy payment solutions taken at our Barstow, CA office.

Dr. Basa has been faithful in taking care of my special needs daughter for the last 20+ years. We always had in office visits until the Covid 19 outbreak. Dr. Basa and her staff was quick to arrange visits through Zoom.com. She and her hard working staff still have our heath concerns as a high priority. Some days the visits are quick without waiting and sometimes there is a wait, but the unhurried visit we have explains the wait time and I am thankful for the quality and the results of our visits and issues, and the other patient whom I also know. We are a small townThank you Dr. Basa, Sharon, Carol, Veronica, and Stella for the many years of care for this family. And, thank you to all the new staff, you are all highly valued, and very much needed in our life.
