Overview

A conservative, maintenance-focused programme to lighten melasma patches while avoiding the aggressive treatment that can make this condition worse.

The concern

How we can help

Melasma produces symmetrical brown patches on the cheeks, forehead and upper lip, often driven by hormones and sun. It is notoriously relapse-prone and can flare with heat and over-aggressive lasers.

Our team can support you in:

Symmetrical brown/grey facial patches
Worsening with sun and heat exposure
Relapse after previous treatments
Hormonal aggravation (pregnancy, contraception)

The solution

How the treatment works

The cornerstone is strict photoprotection combined with tyrosinase-inhibiting topicals. Gentle peels and carefully-dosed low-fluence laser may be layered in, always favouring under-treatment to avoid rebound. Long-term maintenance keeps pigment suppressed.
