How do we treat Melasma?

Sunscreen

Daily sun protection is very important. This prevents any further darkening of the area.

Lightening Agents

Lightening Agents available only on prescription can help to reduce further production of melanin.

Revlite Laser

Revlite Laser is a specialised laser machine that shatters pigment in the abnormal skin. Melasma can be treated effectively with weekly to fortnightly treatments with no downtime. Note: IPL should never be used to treat Melasma as it can potentially make the Melasma worse.

Light Skin Peels

Light Skin Peels are a useful adjunct to gradually improve Melasma.
