Melasma is not 100%curable but if it happened because of some drugs Like ocpills and you stop them, there is a fair chance of recovery. However if it's genetic ,it may recur. Sunprotection is very important. Use some safe lightening cream at night.
Next Steps
see a dermatologist for prescription and chemical peel which helps in early improvement.
