@dr_ingky: Melasma getting darker? Heat, inflammation, and UV exposure can trigger more pigmentation. Avoid these 3 mistakes: • Harsh scrubbing → Friction can cause inflammation and trigger extra pigmentation • Relying only on salicylic acid → It helps unclog pores but doesn’t stop melanin production • Skipping sunscreen & moisturizer → A damaged skin barrier can leave your skin more exposed to UV and trigger melasma Instead, keep your skin gentle, moisturized, and protected with sunscreen. Save this for later.
