Sunscreen is paramount I agree!

What worked for me was to bomb it with active non stop to exterminate it. Sunscreen every single day and reapply it every 2 hours if I'm outside, azelaic acid, retinoids, glycolic acid, laser treatments, vitamin C PLUS a hat during the summer. I made my sun hats part of my outfits so I don't look like a weirdo. Thank God my skin can take many actives and I can mix and match them without irritation. This summer my skin looks amazing and I do go out and enjoy myself.

I hear others say glycolic acid isn’t good for melasma… can you set the record straight on that? Don’t peels cause inflammation, causing melasma to get worse, or is that just at home peels? Thank you!

@dr.jennyliu Жыл бұрын

Yep it’s a balance. Any peels regardless of ingredient if too strong (you kind have to earn your peel) can worsen hyperpigmentations! So it’s really important to either test before use if you’re sensitive or start of slowly and gradually increase frequency or strength
