Tixel Treatment

Melasma Treatment

Melasma, those stubborn brown patches on your face, can be frustrating to deal with. But there’s a revolutionary treatment that can help: Tixel. Unlike traditional lasers that can be harsh on darker skin tones, Tixel uses a unique thermo-mechanical action to safely and effectively reduce the appearance of melasma. It creates tiny micro-channels in the skin, stimulating collagen and encouraging new, healthy skin cells to grow. This means less pain, less downtime, and a brighter, more even complexion.

Treatment Results

Many clients see a significant improvement in their melasma after a series of Tixel treatments. You can expect a more even skin tone, a reduction in the appearance of dark patches, and an overall improvement in your skin’s texture and clarity. The best results usually appear around 3-6 months after the final session.

Skin Resurfacing

What is Tixel Skin Resurfacing?

Tixel is a fractional skin resurfacing treatment that uses a special titanium tip with 81 pyramids heated to 400 degrees Celsius to deliver controlled heat energy to the skin. This heat triggers the body’s natural healing process, leading to smoother, healthier skin by stimulating collagen production and cellular turnover. Because it doesn’t rely on melanin (the pigment that gives skin its color) to work, it’s safe and effective for all skin types, including those prone to melasma.

Traditional laser treatments for melasma can be risky for people with darker skin tones. They target melanin, which can accidentally damage surrounding healthy tissue and lead to unwanted side effects like lightening of the skin or scarring. Tixel, on the other hand, bypasses these risks by using heat to stimulate collagen and cell turnover without relying on melanin absorption. Unlike traditional lasers, Tixel’s thermo-mechanical action minimizes the risk of hypopigmentation, scarring, and other side effects commonly associated with traditional laser treatments on darker skin.

  • Safer for darker skin: Reduces the risk of side effects like hypopigmentation and scarring.
  • More comfortable: Less pain and downtime compared to traditional lasers.
  • Effective results: Noticeably reduces the appearance of melasma patches.
Treatment Process

Melasma Treatment

Process Breakdown

We’ll begin with a thorough consultation to discuss your melasma concerns, medical history, and desired outcomes. This allows our skilled practitioners to determine if Tixel is the right treatment for you and create a personalized plan to address your unique needs. Before the procedure, your skin will be gently cleansed and prepared. A topical numbing cream may be applied to ensure your comfort during the treatment. 

The Tixel device will be delicately applied to your skin, delivering controlled heat energy in a fractional pattern. You may experience a warm or prickling sensation as the device creates micro-channels in the skin’s surface. The treatment time will vary depending on the size and area being treated. 

Immediately following the treatment, you may experience mild redness, swelling, and a sensation similar to a sunburn. These effects are temporary and typically subside within a few days. 

Our team will provide you with detailed post-treatment instructions, including specific skincare recommendations and sun protection guidelines. It’s essential to follow these instructions carefully to optimize your healing and achieve the best possible results. This may include:  

  • Keeping the treated area clean and moisturized.  
  • Avoiding sun exposure.  
  • Following a personalized skincare regimen. 

Depending on your individual needs and goals, a series of Tixel treatments may be recommended for optimal results. We will discuss the recommended treatment schedule with you during your consultation and adjust it as needed based on your progress and skin’s response. We will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

Melasma Treatment

Frequently Asked Questions

Melasma is a common skin condition that causes brown or grayish-brown patches on the face, typically on the cheeks, forehead, bridge of the nose, and chin. It's often triggered by hormonal changes, sun exposure, and certain medications. Melasma is more common in women, especially during pregnancy. 

Melasma is thought to be caused by an overproduction of melanin, the pigment that gives skin its color. Hormonal changes, such as those that occur during pregnancy or with the use of birth control pills, can trigger this overproduction. Sun exposure is another major trigger, as UV radiation stimulates melanin production. Certain medications, cosmetics, and underlying medical conditions can also contribute to melasma development. 

Unfortunately, there's no one-size-fits-all cure for melasma. However, various treatments can help reduce the appearance of dark patches and achieve a more even skin tone. These include topical creams, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, laser treatments, and light therapies. It's essential to consult with a qualified skincare professional to determine the best treatment plan for your individual needs and skin type. 

While topical treatments and procedures can address the visible signs of melasma, it's also important to consider internal factors that may contribute to the condition. A holistic approach may include:  

  • Hormonal balance: If hormonal fluctuations are a contributing factor, addressing those imbalances through lifestyle changes or medical intervention may help manage melasma.  
  • Nutritional support: A balanced diet rich in antioxidants and nutrients that support skin health may help improve melasma.  
  • Stress management: Stress can exacerbate melasma, so incorporating stress-reducing techniques like yoga, meditation, or deep breathing exercises may be beneficial.
