What is Melasma ?

There are a variety of factors that can cause dark spots or pigmentation to develop on your skin such as sunlight, aging and the female hormones. The form, the term of the disease and the treatment method for the pigmentation may also vary depending on the cause. Among many types of skin discoloration, the type that is greatly related with ultraviolet rays and the female hormone（pregnancy, giving birth and contraceptive pills） is called Melasma. The symptoms of Melasma usually appear symmetrically, and they are commonly found on the cheeks, forehead and upper lip. The physical condition and menstrual cycle may reflect on the shade or color of the pigmentation in some cases. Although it is believed to be difficult to cure Melasma completely, it is possible to improve. Let us help you find the treatment that is most suitable for your life style.
