Melasma/ skin pigmentation
Hello Sir/ Mam,
Could you suggest if we can use Erytop cream for skin pigmentation? Please find attached prescription from last dermatologist I consulted but I saw no visible results.
Also is laser n peel safe as last resort. I wanted to avoid laser as I have braces on.

Many a times single cream medication may not work.Peels along with combination skin lightening creams and oral medications may help.Share more pics I am available for online consultation.

Its possible to achieve your basic color back and maintain a flawless glowing skin by taking a skin brightening treatment regimen for 6-8 months, consisting of-
-sunscreens
-skin lightening creams
-antioxidants and multivitamins
-external treatments like peels.
- Q-switch laser
- Oxy Facial, photofacial or skin brightening medical facials.
After this you will have to maintain the results by application of sunscreen and moisturisers daily.
A combination of all these treatments help you in achieving lightening of the pigment. Stick to the treatment for 8-10 months and take optimum sessions as advised by the dermatologist.
