THE INCREASING
Burden of Melasma
The most commonly seen condition next to acne
Melasma is becoming increasingly common, with some dermatologists citing it as the most commonly seen condition next to acne.
Besides the apparent aesthetic effects of the chronic condition, Melasma can also have a negative impact on your patient’s mental health and quality of life.

Current Treatments May Not Be Enough
Melasma is notoriously difficult to treat. Typical treatments include hydroquinone or other topical compounds, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and Q-switched lasers. However, these treatments may not give you and your patients the results you need.
- They have varying degrees of efficacy
- Side effects include skin irritation and allergic reactions
- Patient compliance is always an issue with topical medications
- They only treat melasma at the epidermal layer, leaving melasma at the deeper dermal layer untouched
laser technology
Aerolase Neo Laser
The Aerolase Neo Laser Goes Deeper to Treat Melasma at the Dermal Level.
The Neo’s unique 650-microsecond 1064nm Nd:YAG laser technology breaks up the epidermal pigment while addressing the deeper, dermal melanin and vascular components of melasma.
Breaks down hyperpigmentation at the dermal level
Decreases hyper-vascularity
Penetrates much deeper than topical treatments and Q-switched Nd:YAG lasers
A recent clinical evaluation showed up to a 50% improvement in melasma as early as 3 weeks after treatment with the Neo.
Safe for All Skin Types — Even Skin of Color
The Neo is safe and gentle on all skin types — even Fitzpatrick skin types IV through VI.
Its 650-microsecond pulse duration is shorter than or equal to the thermal relaxation time of the therapeutic target, which means:
No pain or burning
No hypo- or hyperpigmentation
No skin cooling or anesthesia required
