Dear Mr. lybrate-user, melasma is a recurring condition especially if it is of the deeper/mixed type. I would definitely emphasize on the use of a sunscreen regularly all through the year (as sunlight is a contributing factor for melasma). If you are not happy about the results acheived with creams, you can consult with your dermatologist for laser. Though again the improvement /recurrence cannot be guaranteed, it works quite well for some patients. I hope this helps!

Hey lybrate-user, the treatment taken by you is absolutely correct. Only additions needed are- sunscreen every 3 hours as sun plays a major role in melasma, add a multivitamin + antioxidant and go for chemical peels for melasma every 15-20 days for 4-6 sessions or more if needed. You will get good results.
