What is Melasma? | Melasma Treatment Explained

Dr. Lisa Pruett explains how melasma is treated and describes what melasma looks like. Melasma is a fairly common skin condition that creates the appearance of brown to gray-brown patches of skin, usually on the face. Melasma can be treated with chemical peels, microdermabrasion or dermabrasion to remove the top layers of the skin.

I suffer from melasma. I tried chemical peels, I also went to the skin doctor who prescribed a night cream mixture that is normally stored in the fridge. This cream made the skin too bright and pale, and when I am in the sun my skin gets red on the areas I applied the cream. The melasma was fading, but I stopped as my skin was get too pale. Long story short, melasma never left. My other last options I have is microneedling and laser.

I have dark pigmentation on my forehead, right knee and dark circles below my eyes. Is it melasma? What's the best cure for it? The one on my forehead is so annoying. Sometimes it's not that visible but most of the time it's like a 2nd eyebrows

I am so worried about my Mom, she is treating melasma for 6 years now, she's even using *zen obaggi kit* still the effects are not that good. (she 45 & don't have any wrinkles and follows a really strict diet, cause she wants to look good).
We have certified dermatologists, who told about zen obaggi, but I dont think it's working
*Any other option besides laser?*
