Answer: Melasma and Sun Spots -- Best Treamtent Is Clear + Brilliant / Fraxel 1927 with Microneedling PRP, Pro Yellow is Useful I suggest a formal consultation as melasma is a chronic skin condition that needs skin lightening, lasers, microneedling/PRP for improvement and maintenance.

Answer: Melasma treatments that work for pigmentation There are many precipitors for melasma and pigmentation. I would start with the Melarase Brightening Kit with Melapads, Melarase AM, Melarase PM, and Replenish; followed by a combination of Covalent peels, Yag laser, and light fractional laser.

Answer: Steaming is not advised for melasma Steaming or heat is not advised, nor is it helpful to reduce or treat or prevent melasma.Melasma needs long term commitment with skin care and avoidance of skin factors such as sun exposure (Spectrase Sun Block) which has wide UV spectrum and SPF 30+ protection. Daily good habits with topicals may well help you chieve your goals with a good skin system like the Brightening Kit from KareSkin (see link). You may want to start with Melarase and Pigmentation Correction Complex. Scler-X from another vendor is for PIH relief (see link). Melarase AM is non hydroquinone based. Clear + Brilliant laser can be added once you start your pretreatment with topicals. Best H Karamanoukian MD FACS Tweet

Answer: Melasma treatment If anything, heat could make your melasma darker, but certainly will not help it. A cosmetic dermatologist can examine you and can offer topical medication and treatments depending on your skin type. Sun avoidance is most important.
