Melasma is often triggered by a combination of sun exposure, hormonal changes, and genetics. UV rays stimulate excess pigment production, while factors like pregnancy, birth control, or thyroid conditions can worsen it. Heat, stress, and certain skincare products may also contribute.
Treatments that focus on calming inflammation, gently breaking up pigment, and restoring skin barrier health—like chemical peels, low-energy laser, microneedling, and brightening facials—can help reduce visible patches over time without triggering flare-ups.
