I have melasma (I'm assuming) on my top lip and corners of my mouth. Is there any way to lighten or even get rid of it? Would lip injections just make it more visible?
Answer: Melasma on the Lips-- Lasers, peels, skincare A combination of lasers, peels, skincare possible medical tattooing can help but will need a series of long term treatments for best results.

Answer: Melasma Melasma can not be completely cured, however effective treatment are possible. This is because your skin is extremely sensitive to UV and even the smallest amount can stimulate your pigment cells to produce colour. The mainstay of treatment is strict UV protection- hats, sunglasses and SPF every 4 hours
