I have severe discoloration on my cheeks for a decade at least !! it is very depressing :( I am starting a new routine for severe Melasma (and anti aging) I have been using Retina A for years, but now I am adding Tri Luma and Vitamine C , Plus the sunscreen. I am not sure which one to start with at night and in the morning. Thank you for your help.

Answer: Melasma Treatment--Best Treatment Is Clear + Brilliant / Fraxel / Aerolase w Microneedling/prp I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Melasma needs a combination approach to get the best improvement and will need a series of treatments. In our practice, we combine Clear + brilliant, peels, microneedling/PRP, aerolase, Cosmelan, and sometimes erbium laser (coollaser) to get the best results. Melasma will need life-long maintenance.

Answer: Get the Picosure laser treatment for your melasma you should strongly consider getting 3 Picosure laser treatments, spaced one month apart. there is no downtime from this breakthrough laser. it fires 1,000 times faster than other lasers so that there is little to no redness. It is safe for skin types 1-4. This is much easier and more effective than the routine you are following. you will want to use a good sun block after your treatments. david berman md
