Several factors can influence your melasma, including hormonal changes from pregnancy or medications, and especially sun exposure. While those with more melanin in their skin may be more prone to melasma, everyone can take steps to manage it. We recommend checking with your doctor about any possible hormonal factors, while being extra vigilant about sun protection.

Your Lavie Labs personalized treatment works best when combined with good sun habits - think daily sunscreen, reapplication, and sun-protective clothing.

When beginning your treatment, your skin will need time to adjust to the active ingredients. You might notice some light flaking, temporary dryness, or a slight tingling sensation - these are actually good signs that your treatment is working. To help your skin adapt, start with a small amount and consider using a gentle moisturizer before and after application.

It's perfectly fine to take occasional breaks from treatment as you gradually build up to daily use. Remember, slow and steady wins the race when it comes to skin transformation.

Think of melasma management as an ongoing journey rather than a one-time fix. While treatment can significantly improve your skin's appearance, melasma can return, particularly with sun exposure or hormonal changes.

The good news is that maintaining your results is possible with consistent care. By keeping up with your skincare routine and staying dedicated to sun protection, even after your skin clears, you can help maintain your results long-term.

Many of our clients find that this combination of daily care and prevention becomes a natural part of their routine, helping them maintain clearer, more even-toned skin.
