What Is Laser Melasma Treatment?
Melasma, sometimes known as chloasma, is a skin condition characterized by irregular dark patches on the face or forearms. These patches, typically tan or brown, often appear symmetrically on the forehead, cheeks, nose, or upper lip. It's a prevalent condition, especially among women, and can be triggered by sun exposure or hormonal changes, like pregnancy or menopause. At our West Palmdale, Ridgecrest, and Tehachapi, CA practices, we frequently address melasma with the advanced PicoSure® Pro. Interested in exploring laser treatments for melasma? Contact Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa to find out how we can help reduce the appearance of this skin concern.
How Does Laser Melasma Treatment Work?
Prior to starting your treatment, a topical numbing cream might be applied to reduce any potential discomfort. Subsequently, one of our skilled team members will maneuver the handpiece across your skin, directing the non-ablative laser energy toward the areas affected by melasma. This light energy is designed to lessen pigmentation, allowing your body to absorb it and unveil a clearer, more uniform complexion. Generally, only a handful of treatments are necessary. Nevertheless, your skin's specific needs might need several sessions to get the best possible outcome.

Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa Reviews
I was referred to Sandhu Dermatology by my primary care doctor at Kaiser. He certainly knows what he is doing. The doctor and staff are very professional and know exactly how to put you at ease. My procedure was virtuously pain free, and the doctor happily answered any questions I had. I highly recommend them.
Dr Harika Sandhu is the Best she definitely follows her father’s footsteps 👍🙏. She is very friendly and explains treatment thoroughly. I have been 100 % satisfied with my treatments and my doctor. The staff is welcoming and friendly as well , the facility is top notch . 👍
My husband and I both use this dermatologist and it’s spectacular! The staff are knowledgeable, courteous, extremely patient, great listeners, and treat each patient with kindness and compassion. The doctors are excellent , have a wealth of experience and training in the field of dermatology . When we go there we feel that it’s not just a service being provided but they genuinely care. They are very sensitive to patients like me who are a bit nervous with some procedures. My husband also loves the care he receives. I recommend anyone who is looking for outstanding , client focused, outstanding professional care. Kudos to the staff and doctors!Jay Reed
ok, here's a 4 star review for Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa in Acton, CA.was really happy with my facial and extractions, my skin looks and feels great after. the spa part of the facility is really nicely done, super relaxing while i waited. my esthetician was knowledgeable and listened to what i wanted, no pushy sales either. only thing is they were running about 15 minutes behind my appointment which is a bit annoying. id still go back for a maintenance visit for sure.
I am so happy that I went to Shandu Dermatology!Dr Harika Shandu is an excellent surgeon with outstanding attention to detail. Her stitchwork is so beautiful that it reminds me of fine embroidery on a silk cloth. She's that good!I had what looked like two pimples on my back, but they were just the tip of the iceberg. I heard a "snip snip" , it felt like a haircut, and when she was done, a non-cancerous cyst - the size of my thumb! - was removed from my back and placed in a medical jar. I was shocked! I had no idea!The second cyst was the size of a marble, and a third cyst, located on my left forearm, which I thought was a weird looking mole, but no, no, no - it was a cyst the size of a 1-inch ball bearing! My jaw dropped in disbelief.Because Dr Hakita Shandu did such an excellent job sewing me up, my wounds have closed completely now and there is no scarring. There is still some discoloration around the wounds, but I plan on buying the Post Care Silicone Gel when I go back next week for a follow-up appointment.I’m also seriously considering the monthly subscription for a hydro facial. It sounds wonderful and very relaxing.Dr Hakita Shandu is a very nice person with a gentle touch. I would strongly recommend Shandu Dermatology for any skin care needs. The entire staff is very nice, and they made me feel very much at ease. It’s like the tv show Cheers! - “where everyone knows your name”Thank you very much, Dr Hakita Shandu! You're the best!Morris Lee FeasterPalmdale, CA
