Faq Melasma
Melasma is a skin condition that causes dark, discolored patches, usually on the face. It is often triggered by sun exposure, hormonal changes, and genetics.
Melasma can be caused by excessive sun exposure, pregnancy, birth control pills, hormonal imbalances, and certain medications.
Melasma can fade over time with the right treatment and sun protection, but it may recur if exposed to triggers.
Treatments include topical creams, chemical peels, laser therapy, and microneedling. Sun protection is crucial to prevent worsening. Advanced peels such as Cosmelan, Dermamelan and Acnemelan are also done at the center.
Wearing broad-spectrum sunscreen, avoiding excessive sun exposure, and maintaining a healthy skincare routine can help prevent Melasma.
