Melasma / Hyperpigmentation

मेलास्मा / हाइपरपिगमेंटेशन

Melasma causes dark, discoloured patches on the skin, typically on the face. It is more common in women and those with darker skin tones. Sun exposure and hormonal changes are major triggers.

Treatment approach

Treatment involves targeted depigmenting agents (hydroquinone, azelaic acid, kojic acid), strict sun protection, and topical retinoids. We take a methodical, long-term approach to achieve even skin tone without aggressive procedures.
