- Mixed: Combination of both (most common)
Advanced Melasma Treatment Options
Q-Switched Laser Treatment
The gold standard for melasma. Our advanced Q-Switched Nd:YAG laser targets melanin deposits without damaging surrounding skin. This laser technology breaks down pigment particles, which are then naturally eliminated by the body.
- Effective for both epidermal and dermal melasma
- Minimal downtime
- Safe for Indian skin tones
- 4-6 sessions typically required
Chemical Peels for Melasma
Medical-grade chemical peels exfoliate pigmented skin layers and inhibit melanin production:
- Glycolic Acid Peels: Superficial exfoliation for mild melasma
- TCA Peels: Medium-depth peels for stubborn pigmentation
- Kojic Acid Peels: Melanin inhibitor for brightening
- Combination Peels: Multiple agents for maximum effectiveness
Topical Depigmentation Therapy
Medical-grade prescription creams form the foundation of melasma treatment:
- Hydroquinone: Gold standard bleaching agent (used under medical supervision)
- Tretinoin: Increases cell turnover and enhances pigment removal
- Kojic Acid: Natural melanin inhibitor
- Azelaic Acid: Reduces pigmentation and inflammation
- Vitamin C Serums: Antioxidant and brightening agent
- Niacinamide: Prevents pigment transfer to skin cells
We customize formulations based on your skin type and melasma severity.
Fractional Laser Resurfacing
Creates micro-injuries to stimulate collagen and remove pigmented cells. Particularly effective for mixed-type melasma.
Oral Tranexamic Acid
A breakthrough treatment that works from within to reduce melanin production. Highly effective for stubborn, recurrent melasma when topical treatments alone aren’t sufficient.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can melasma be cured permanently?
Melasma is a chronic condition that can be effectively managed but not permanently cured. With proper treatment and sun protection, it can be kept under control. Some people experience complete clearance, while others require ongoing maintenance.
How long does melasma treatment take?
Visible improvement typically begins in 6-8 weeks with topical therapy. Laser and chemical peel treatments show results after 2-3 sessions (2-3 months). Optimal results usually require 6-12 months of comprehensive treatment.
Is melasma treatment painful?
Most treatments are well-tolerated. Topical creams may cause mild irritation. Chemical peels may cause temporary stinging. Laser treatments involve minimal discomfort with topical numbing.
Will my melasma come back after treatment?
Melasma can recur, especially with sun exposure, hormonal changes, or heat. Strict sun protection and maintenance therapy significantly reduce recurrence risk.
Is laser treatment safe for dark skin?
Yes! We use Q-Switched Nd:YAG lasers specifically safe for Indian and darker skin tones. Dr. Tanushree customizes settings to minimize any risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Can I use over-the-counter creams for melasma?
OTC products are generally too weak for melasma. Medical-grade, prescription-strength formulations are necessary for effective treatment.
