What Is Melasma?
Melasma, also called chloasma, happens when uneven patches of dark skin arise on the face or forearms. These tan or brown patches usually occur symmetrically around the forehead, nose, cheeks, or upper lip. The symmetry of melasma sets it apart from other skin conditions that cause skin darkening. Melasma is not at all uncommon and is found more often in women. It can be caused by sun damage or hormonal fluctuations, such as with pregnancy and menopause. Individuals with darker skin types are more prone to melasma than people with lighter complexions. Dr. Denise L. Klemczak treats melasma regularly with the PicoSure® laser by Cynosure at VIVOS Wellness in Kissimmee, FL where we provide a number of treatments that can lessen the visibility of this cosmetic condition.
How Is Melasma Treated?
Are you looking for effective ways to treat melasma? Topical treatments, like creams, gels, or lotions, are often the first step in tackling this skin condition. They're designed to lighten the affected areas gradually. For those seeking more advanced solutions, VIVOS Wellness offers several procedures, like chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or PicoSure laser system. These techniques have gained popularity due to their effectiveness. The key to maintaining these results lies in diligent sun protection and regular skin care. By combining treatments with good skin care habits, you can expect to see lasting improvements.
What Are the Symptoms of Melasma?
Melasma is characterized by discoloration or hyperpigmentation primarily on the face. Three kinds of ordinary facial patterns are identified in those with melasma:
- Centrofacial (center of your face): Hyperpigmentation around the cheeks, upper lip, nose, chin, and forehead
- Malar (cheekbones): Melasma patterns around the upper cheeks
- Mandibular (jawbone): Hyperpigmentation along the jaw

My wife has been using vivos for about three months. She loves it and I love the results as well. Great Mother’s Day gifts.
I'm so happy to have found this place in the local area to do my Wellness IV! The doctor is so friendly and takes the time to educate you and provide options for your health needs. If you are in the 192 and Hwy 27 area you must stop by abd check their services. Lisandra

They are super professional. Place is very clean. I appreciate them guiding me through my tattoo removal service. She was very professional and ver patient with me. I really do appreciate it. I will most definitely be back for my tattoo removal treatment
I can't praise Vivos Wellness and Dr. Denise enough! From the warm welcome by Jeffrey to the attentive care from Dr. Denise, my experience has been outstanding. Seeking IV hydration initially, I discovered a holistic approach to health. Dr. Denise, a gynecologist, addressed my concerns about urinary leakage during workouts or sneezing with personalized solutions, including the impressive Emsella treatment, which is a chair and does over 11,000 kegels for you and I was fully clothed! Then she suggested the Emfemme to optimize my results and help tighen even more. After three children, her treatments for vaginal laxity have restored my confidence. She diagnosed the issue as a pelvic floor concern and presented solutions tailored to my needs. The assurance that I wasn't alone in experiencing this concern was comforting. The vitamin injections for Vitamin D, Biotin, and B12 have been a fantastic addition to my wellness routine. If you're seeking expert health care for women OR men, look no further than Dr. Denise at Vivos Wellness. Highly recommended! Can't wait to go back!
