How to whiten the skin and remove melasma

Melasma and hyperpigmentation can be treated through various methods: 1. Medication is a common approach, such as applying hydroquinone cream or azelaic acid cream, which can lighten localized pigmentation and whiten the skin. 2. Laser therapy and intense pulsed light (IPL) treatments are also effective options. Laser therapy uses laser energy to break down pigmentation and promote collagen regeneration, while IPL removes pigmentation and stimulates collagen production through pulses of high-intensity light. Both methods can effectively reduce melasma and lighten the skin. To treat melasma and hyperpigmentation effectively, individual skin types, causes, and severity should be comprehensively considered in selecting the appropriate treatment method. Proper daily skincare and sun protection are also essential. If in doubt, please consult a dermatologist.
