Background: Melasma shows characteristic histological features of photoaged skin. Objective: We evaluated the effect of dermal rejuvenation using a temperature-controlled continuous non-invasive radiofrequency (RF) device on melasma. Methods: Continuous skin heating at the temperature of 43°C for 20 minutes was performed in ten subjects with melasma who underwent 3 tri-weekly RF sessions. Pigmentation was evaluated with Mexameter® and investigator’s global assessment (IGA). Immunohistochemi- cal staining and image analysis was performed to evaluate biopsies from melasma skin before and after the treatment. Results: The lesional melanin index was decreased by 13.7% at week 9. IGA score was im- proved from 3.50 at baseline to 2.95 at week 9. No significant adverse event was reported. Histologic analysis revealed reduced melanin and increased collagen density and thickness. The expression of procollagen-1 and type IV collagen was increased after the treatment. The number of p16INK4A-positive senescent fibroblasts was reduced after the treatment, while the expression of heat shock protein 70 and 90 was increased. Stromal derived factor-1, a senes- cence-associated anti-melanogenic factor secreted from the fibroblasts, was up-regulated after the treatment, while the level of c-kit was not changed. Conclusion: Thermal skin stimulation by the temperature-controlled continuous RF device improved melasma through dermal rejuvenation.
