Treatment for spots and melasma in Bogota

🌤️ Melasma: What it is, why it appears, and how I can help you

Melasma is a common skin condition that causes brown or grayish patches, especially on the face: cheeks, forehead, nose, and upper lip. It is more common in women, especially those over the age of 25, and usually occurs due to a combination of hormonal factors, sun exposure, including the daily Bogotá sun, and genetic predisposition.

It's not a dangerous disease, but it can seriously affect self-esteem. As a dermatologist in Bogota, I can offer you several options to combat it.

🔍 Why does melasma appear?

Among the most frequent causes are:

  • Hormonal changes (pregnancy, contraceptives, hormonal disorders)

  • Sun exposure without protection ☀️, and

  • Use of some cosmetics or perfumes

  • Visible light (screens, LED lights)

  • Genetics: some skin types are more prone

Melasma does not go away on its own and can worsen if not treated properly.

💡 How is it treated?

Treatment should be individualized. During your consultation, we evaluate your skin type and degree of pigmentation to create a plan that combines:

✅ Medical depigmenting creams
✅ Strict photoprotection (physical and chemical filters)
✅ Procedures such as chemical peels, laser, or microneedling
✅ Personalized dermocosmetic routines
✅ Advice on daily care habits

The goal is not only to lighten spots, but also to prevent their reappearance with a long-term approach.
