Trivia & myth busters

Myth

Sun exposure triggers melasma.

Fact

Sun exposure does not trigger melasma. The root cause of these dark patches is hormones (although the cycle is not fully understood). The sun can only exacerbate/increase the severity of melasma. That is why, not all, exposed to the same amount of UV intensity develop melasma. Only a few whose hormones are pre-disposed to melasma, develop these dark patches. Since sun exposure can exacerbate melasma it is recommended to wear a 50 SPF sunscreen, hat and sunglasses when stepping out in the sun.

Myth

Melasma can be cured by any facewash.

Fact

No over the counter fairness face wash is going to cure melasma. Melasma can only be managed but not completely cured.
