I’ve faded my melasma with these same guidelines that Dr. Dray has laid out. Definitely sunscreen, being gentle with the skin, and not using too many products (which I know is a natural reflex in order to try and fix the problem). The biggest change occurred though when I became more conscious about nutrition and what I was consuming. For me, I believe my melasma was catalyzed by the food I was eating, perhaps affecting my hormones, and then exacerbated by other factors (i.e. sun, stress, sleep). Everyone’s nutritional needs will be different, but I think it’s something also worth looking into.

@vivianhudacek15562 жыл бұрын
Probably a year ago I noticed a faint bluish tint above my upper lip. I was horrified, thinking it might be a circulatory problem, particularly since I am a “woman of a certain age.” My investigating online revealed melasma & a possible hormonal connection. I was relieved I wasn’t about to croak from a heart attack. Anyway, on a recent visit to a new dermatologist, I showed her my fingernails, which have a straight dark line running from cuticle to tip on 4-5 of my nails. Then when I removed my mask, she saw my mustache & told me that it’s likely caused from years of taking Minocycline for my rosacea. She changed my meds to Doxycycline. I’m so hoping this change will help, especially since it’s less convenient to take this med (b/c of having to space out daily products, supplements, & other meds & b/c it’s a 2 x day dose). Anyway, perhaps this info. will help someone else. Thanks for your video!

No offense but first of all turmeric has been used topically for centuries in India to remove suntan and hyperpigmentation naturally. It is also consumed heavily with no ill effects - ask over 1 billion people. Secondly, hydroquinone is banned in many countries due to severe adverse affects. Thirdly, hyperpigmentation in brown people is often due to diabetes, insulin resistance, PCOS, thyroid issues, eczema - get these under control, and maintain healthy diet. Also frequent waxing can cause irritation. Lastly, If you are a person of color check out the 100s of brown people videos on natural ways of getting rid of hyperpigmentation. Many OTC products don't help treat dark skin.

I have the same problem! And it gets worse every time I get it waxed or thread it. I wish we could figure out a solution for that

Only thing that has worked for my melisma. Have struggled for over 10 years with melasma. And I do not go in the sun at all and use sunscreen religiously. Give it time it is the best. There are different concentrations.

@@cmll6010 yes its very annoying, I've tried covering it with makeup but it looks really bad!! Hopefully it works for me, mine developed during my 2nd pregnancy and I was exclusively breastfeeding so my dermatologist didn't recommend using this but im no longer breastfeeding so I'm able to start this journey im so excited!!😀
