Does melasma go away?
Creams containing tretinoin, kojic acid, and azelaic acid have
been shown to improve the appearance of melasma. Occasionally, your
doctor may recommend chemical peels or topical steroid creams. In
severe cases, laser treatments can be used to remove the dark
pigment. Avoiding the sun and using sunscreen are key to preventing
melasma. Often when birth control, menapausal supplemental
hormones, or pregnancy resolve, it fades away naturally.
