Remember Not all brown spots are created equal.
Before you treat, make sure you know what you’re treating. Melasma, sunspots, PIH, may look similar, but each tells a different story and needs a unique plan.
Here are some great products for hyperpigmentation
1. Alpha arbutin - it’s the cousin of hydroquinone with less irritation and side effects
2. Tranexamic acid
3. Niacinamide
Always pair with sun protection!
