Hi there... You mention many doctors have treated you to no avail. Have these been Dermatologists? Firstly some clear pics from different angles of the affected portions of face and neck will be much appreciated (inbox 📥 these to preserve privacy) Second at 50 you are perimenopausal and a detailed medical history with co-morbidities if any and some hormonal blood tests will most definitely be needed to offer you a definitive treatment. Thirdly, there are different grades of Melasma and without the above two pieces of the 🧩🧩, one cannot hope to treat Melasma as it is one of the toughest to resolve in Dermatology care. Keeping all the above in mind, it is probably best to connect directly Online using this App's INSTANT ONLINE Consultation 🙏 This will enable us to write out a clear prescription for you.

Melasma can sometimes worsen despite treatment, especially if the skin becomes irritated from strong creams or excessive treatments. Irritation itself can stimulate more pigmentation, which may be why the patches seem to be spreading. At age 50, hormonal changes, sun exposure, and skin sensitivity can also make melasma more persistent. Helpful Tips / Word of Caution: • Avoid direct sun exposure, heat, and harsh cosmetic procedures, as these can worsen melasma. • Use gentle skincare (mild cleanser and moisturizer) to reduce irritation. • Melasma is a chronic condition, so improvement usually takes consistent treatment over several months, rather than quick results. Kindly book an online consultation with me through the app for detailed evaluation and treatment.
