Does it clear dark spots from melasma?

That I don't know. I know it has worked on my hyperpigmentation (age spots) and has provided overall lightening and smoothing. I don't think it would hurt. However, you have to remember to use sunscreen very diligently. Every time you peel your skin becomes more vulnerable because your removing superficial layers of skin. So, use lots of sunscreen!!!

Hi, again! I did an application this weekend and left it on longer since my skin has so well tolerated the prior applications. The results were more noticeable and my darkest dark spot is much lighter. I think it's safe to say that in another couple of applications it won't be visible anymore. I did leave it on a bit too long this time so to prevent blistering I really do still recommend gradually increasing the time to minimize risk of any injury to your skin, per the instructions. Good luck! I think we have a solution. I hope it works well for you, but we're all different so it's hard to say. Take care. Hi, again!

I purchased it for my niece for light pigmentation and so far it helps lighten but to soon to tell. I don't know about melasma ... because what my niece has is light spots only and its not that dart.

Don't think so I have some light brown spots on my upper checks that I have for many years it didn't really go away, but I think it got a little lighter. It did clear my acne marks and help even my skin tone. I used to have hyper pigmentation from the acne now my skin is more even tone. I use it once a week.

I'm not sure what melasma is, but I am using it in the hope that it will remove some dark spots I have on my complexion. I noticed some improvement after one use, and will be trying it again in a few days. I'm sorry I cannot tell you more at this point in time. I thought that the price is low enough so that if it doesn't do everything I want, it is not a great loss. But, based on what I have seen so far, I feel optimistic. If you'd like more info, please feel free to ask the question again in a few weeks when I will have used it more.

Not much seems to work for melasma, I bought this specifically for that. I've developed quite a bit over the last 5 years. Almost my entire forehead and on both cheeks and various lighters patches all over the face. I've been using this for about a month, once a week. So far, I don't see any difference in the melasma patches. My skin does look smoother, but no difference in melasma. I get acne marks too and those usually lighten over time on their own, but I haven't even seen any difference in the acne marks after 4 uses. I haven't had any peeling or redness at all, so I think I' can probably go to twice a week and see if I get any results with that. I don't want to make a final decision until I'm done with the entire bottle.

I also am having a melasma issue. If you find this works or something lose works, please let me know. My skin is getting so dark around my mouth that it is starting to look mustache like.

Yes, you can. It is particularly helpful if you have dark spots. Continued use makes them disappear.

It depends on the cause of the dark.spot. If the spots are due to acne and the acne is treated then the spots should not return. If the spots are due to a chronic condition such melasma then maintenance is required. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

It definitely reduces/lightens brown spots/patches. But, it does not make it totally go away.

It may lighten them after time but we do not have many testimonials to answer this one way or another...you might use it and follow up with a product known to help with dark spots

It works but I doubt it doesnt remove it completely .. I get dark spots on my feet when I go to the beach ( summer 2014 ) and I'm still working on getting them off ( there are some other products better than this )

actually, i stopped using it. i realized it works at first but then some pimples would disappear and new ones would form. as for the dark spots, your best bet is to let time fade them away. using any acne supplement will only provoke ur acne even more.

I have used action and it did help some but did not eliminate the dark spots. I think it will work if you use it sooner than later.

This works well for fine lines. The glycolic acid in this mask will gradually work on dark spots, but it is not the best active ingredient to reduce them quickly.

Vitamin C products in general are excellent at removing dark spots, but this product has an extremely high concentration of vitamin C. It should work wonders on dark spots/skin brightening. Melloderm HQ %4 hydroquinone also worked for me. Staying out of the sun and not smoking is the best bet as well, as your skin is always FORMING NEW SPOTS.

I used it to lighten dark spots in my chick caused by acne. It works very slow until now my spots are not completely gone. Not sure if its my skin or what

It do helps but the alpha hydrox spot light targeted skin lightener works better for acne dark spots

I have not tried it on either brown spots or sun spots. I have only used it for an active skin cancer where it removed the skin cancer.

I love this product because I have seen my dark spots, crows feet and wrinkles diminish. I hope this answers your question.

It does not clog pores or cause blemishes I am not sure about dark spots I really don't have any.
