Answer: Melasma treatment Thank you for your question. I would suggest doing a fractional treatment for melasma. Apply hydroquinone morning and evening two weeks prior to your treatment. The fractional treatment would help to suppress the discoloration and improve texture of your skin along with shrinking your pores.

Answer: Have tried three halo lasers, which made it worse.What to try now? Sorry to hear of your predicament. Unfortunately Melasma is a difficult condition to treat and its incurable although its effects can be minimized with combination treatments that include HQ 6-8% , Vitamin A preparations, chemical peels, sunscreens etc... You can also try Cosmelan, it is a very good facial mask treatment especially for resistant Melasma.
