"Melasma is the one pigmentation that punishes aggression. Any clinic promising to erase it is telling you what you want to hear."
The melasma treatment protocol in Bengaluru at Dermis 365 manages hormonal pigmentation the way evidence says it must be managed: patiently, in layers, and honestly. Melasma is symmetrical brown pigmentation, usually across the cheeks, forehead and upper lip. Hormones, sun and genetics drive it together. So no single treatment clears it, and aggressive treatment reliably makes it worse. Our protocol layers the tools that work: tranexamic acid, careful topicals, gentle peels, cautious low-energy laser toning, and strict photoprotection.
We open with the truth other clinics skip: melasma is managed, not cured. It fades substantially with the right plan, and it returns if you stop protecting your skin. Therefore at our Kanakapura Main Road clinic, a Doctor maps your pigment depth first with AI analysis — epidermal melasma responds faster than dermal — and then builds your sequence. Sunscreen is the non-negotiable foundation, because a single unprotected week can undo a month of treatment.

Your Doctor selects the protocol after assessment at our Bengaluru clinic.
We begin with Doctor-prescribed topicals — typically tranexamic, azelaic or kojic-based — plus broad-spectrum SPF 50 with visible-light protection. This phase quiets pigment production before any procedure.
Eight to twelve weeks of foundation often fades melasma meaningfully on its own.
Once quieted, gentle brightening peels and low-fluence Q-switch toning lift existing pigment layer by layer. Energy stays deliberately low, because heat provokes melasma.
We watch your skin's response and pull back at any sign of rebound.
Melasma returns without maintenance — that is its nature. Ongoing topicals, daily SPF and periodic sessions hold your result.
We design maintenance to be sustainable, because the plan you keep beats the plan you quit.
Three facts that explain how it works — especially on Indian skin.
Melasma melanocytes are hyper-reactive. Heat and inflammation stimulate them, so strong lasers and deep peels often darken melasma within weeks. Gentle, layered treatment is not caution — it is the correct mechanism.
Tranexamic acid interrupts the signalling between blood vessels and pigment cells that keeps melasma alive. Used topically, by mesotherapy or as prescribed, it is now central to evidence-based melasma care.
Ordinary daylight — not just harsh sun — stimulates melasma on Indian skin. That is why we specify sunscreens with iron oxides that block visible light, and why indoor-only days still need SPF.
Every plan begins with understanding your skin — not selling to it.

We track progress and adjust the plan honestly.
Individual responses vary. Here is a realistic guide.
Pigment production slows under the foundation phase. Fading is subtle at first — melasma responds to patience, not force.
Patches lighten and edges soften through the procedure phase. Tone evens. Photos taken monthly show the change your mirror misses.
With maintenance, most people hold substantial improvement. Individual results vary and are not guaranteed — and honest maintenance beats false cures.

A layered, Doctor-led plan: first quiet pigment production with topicals and strict sun protection, then lift existing pigment with gentle peels and careful low-energy laser toning, then maintain. Melasma needs sequence and patience, not a single procedure.
No, and we will not pretend otherwise. Melasma is a chronic tendency driven by hormones, genetics and light. It fades substantially with the right protocol, and it returns without maintenance. Honest management beats false cures.
Because heat stimulates melasma. Standard-energy lasers and deep peels inflame the overactive pigment cells, causing rebound darkening within weeks. That is why our protocol uses low-fluence settings only, inside a wider plan.
Expect meaningful fading over three to five months, with the foundation phase alone often helping by week eight. Melasma rewards the patient and punishes the hurried. Individual responses vary, and monthly photos track yours.
It is the single most important part. Visible light and heat — not just strong sun — feed melasma daily. One unprotected beach weekend can undo a month of treatment. We specify visible-light-blocking SPF and mean it.
Pregnancy melasma is common, but treatment options narrow — several actives and procedures wait until after. Your Doctor builds a pregnancy-safe plan around protection and gentle care, then expands it later. Results vary and are not guaranteed.
