Many men and women in Monroe, Fort Mill, and Rocklyn, NC get melasma at some time throughout their lives, which happens when uneven areas of darkened skin show up on the face, neck, and forearms. These tan, gray, or brownish patches generally develop evenly over the forehead, nose, cheeks, chin or upper lip. Melasma is found more frequently among females with darker skin tones, and may be triggered by sun damage or hormones, such as those associated with pregnancy and menopause. Licensed esthetician Lori Alessandrini performs melasma treatment at Essential Aesthetics & Laser with the Harmony XL PRO laser from ALMA. This advanced treatment works through powerful light energy to help lessen the presence of gray, brown, or tan patches of skin that are related to melasma.

Laser Melasma Treatment FAQ
What causes melasma?
As a prevalent skin concern, melasma can occur during any stage in life. It's generally believed to be the result of hormones, including those that accompany pregnancy and birth control pills. Less common sources that are generally related to melasma include sun exposure, stress, and a genetic predisposition.
How does laser treatment for melasma work?
When using the Harmony XL PRO laser system, your technician will focus a healing light-based energy into darkly pigmented patches on the top layer of your skin. The laser will gently help to diminish hyperpigmentation so that it can then be absorbed by the body. Though these spots might become darker initially, they should fade after about a week or so.
Does melasma come back after laser treatment?
Even though laser options can help reduce the appearance of melasma, other tan, brown, or gray areas could develop over time. Routine visits might be planned to help lengthen your results.

Essential Aesthetics and Laser Reviews
Not the best place to get laser removal (eyebrows)she was done less than a minute I looked myself at the mirror I told her they look the same, then 20 seconds later I was done is hard to tell since the room is so dark once I got to the parking lot my eyebrows look the same.I gave one star because my facial was decent even though I paid in advance somehow they wanting to charged me again.
I had such a wonderful experience getting a facial with Kim! From the moment I arrived, the space felt calm and relaxing. Kim was incredibly warm, professional, and really took the time to understand my skin’s needs. The facial itself was so soothing, and my skin felt instantly refreshed, clean, and glowing. I could tell she genuinely cares about her clients and goes the extra mile to make the experience special. Highly recommend Kim if you’re looking to treat yourself or level up your skincare routine!
Kristian (the permanent makeup artist) is awesome!! She has done both microblading and shading to my eyebrows for years now, and she just completed my eyeliner permanent makeup. Both my brows and eyeliner look great! I couldn’t be happier!!
I was referred to this business on 7/29. On or around 7/31, I went out to their website and completed their online form for a laser scar removal consultation. Today is 8/9 and no one responded to my online request. I decided to just call today to see if I could get in. These businesses really should understand that customer service soft skills are just as important as the services that they provide. I explained to the person that answered the call that I had previously sent in an online request with no response to wanting to set up a consultation. There was no apology on my experience and the only response was when do you want to come. I was taken aback because normally a business would like to know what is the consultation for and then would explain their consultation process. I didn’t get any of this and wasn’t even told if there was a fee associated with the consultation. I got nothing accept feeling like I was being a bother. In the end, I choose to spend my money with businesses that value new clients and their experience.
Megan is amazing and facials with her are always worth it. I've done hydrafacials, dermaplaning, and regular facials with her. My skin looks so good after and I feel so comfortable during. Def go to her!
