I'm a female Hispanic who's had melasma for about 11 years on my cheeks. I thought it was due to using glycolic peels and not using sunscreen but I've read it can be hormone-related? I tried having laser resurfacing but the dermatologist I saw advised against it saying laser treatment on Hispanic skin wasn't very successful and told me to buy a LaRoche-Posay cream. I've tried tons of cream and nothing has helped. Please help!
