Suggest Medication For Treatment Of Melisma
Hello Dr Prasad. I am in Pune and am having melisma and have tried cosmelon treatment about 2 years ago which has decreased the pigmentation. However this has resurfaced again. How do u compare with Dermelon or equivalent products in indian markets. I am 44 yrs of age and my cycle is normal.

Hello,
For melasma I would recommend a broad spectrum sunscreen, throughout the day, as a must. In addition I suggest a hydroquinone and kojic acid based cream at night on the affected skin. Both of these agents help reduce melanin.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Kakkar S., Dermatologist
