Melasma ,need to start treatment
Detailed Answer:
Hi again
I have seen the attached pictures .
You surely have melasma over the face .
You need to start treatment for the same soon to stop its further progress.
Start application of kojic acid cream over the affected areas of the face twice daily .
Use a medicated sunscreen with spf more than 26 regularly before going out in the sun .Apply it atleast thirty minutes before going out and re apply every three hourly.
Take oral vitamin c tablets once daily for one month .
Eat lots of citrus fruits and fresh salads .
Continue the above treatment for atleast six weeks .
Once you stop lactation,you can see s nearby dermatologist and discuss regarding the need for chemical peels or dermabrasion for rapid recovery .
Hope it helps

You can follow either prescription
Detailed Answer:
Hi again
Both the prescriptions ar practically the same and include a lightening agent along with a sunscreen .
