Can I get melasma that's caused by using face cream?
okay! Melasma caused by using face creams is mostly related to using creams that contain ingredients that irritate the skin or thin the skin, such as: Steroids, hydroquinone, or mercury. If these creams are used continuously or without control, they may interfere with the skin's melanin production process, making it easier for freckles or dark spots to appear, especially when exposed to sunlight.
If you suspect your melasma is caused by using a cream, your doctor recommends...Stop using the suspected product immediately. And please come see a doctor for an examination to assess the type of treatment needed for your melasma, such as using...Topical medication Local injection Use a skin-lightening cream or consider laser treatment. This must be done in conjunction with strict sun protection, as sunlight is a major trigger that makes melasma more prominent.
