Hi,
I would suggest you to not re-use the same cream. Skin condition like melasma needs dermatologist's attention and opinion. The doctor will suggest a cream with different formulation or any procedures to treat it. However, sun protection is of utmost importance while getting treated.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
