How it works
Aggressive treatment can make Indian skin darker, not lighter. We go steady, review progress at every visit and adjust strength to your skin.
01
Find the type
Pigment can sit shallow or deep. A careful exam decides which treatments will help.
02
Prescription base
Creams and sometimes oral medicine to slow pigment production.
03
Peels and lasers
Brightening peels and laser toning lift existing pigment, session by session.
04
Maintenance
Sun protection and a light routine to keep results, since melasma can return.

Pigmentation and melasma,
answered.
Timelines are typical. Your doctor confirms your exact plan after examining you.
Can melasma be cured?
Melasma can be controlled very well, but it can return with sun or hormones. That is why maintenance and sunscreen matter.
Are skin lightening creams safe?
Some over the counter creams contain steroids that damage skin. Only use what your dermatologist prescribes.
How soon will I see a difference?
Most people see visible lightening in 6 to 8 weeks, with steady improvement after that.
