Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Coastal UV exposure is more intense year-round. Combined with humidity and reflected light from beaches, melanocyte stimulation increases significantly compared to cooler hill stations.
Yes, but walk before 7 AM or after 5 PM. Apply SPF 50+ sunscreen 20 minutes before, wear a wide-brim hat, and reapply sunscreen if sweating.
Q-switched Nd:YAG laser at low fluence settings is safest for Fitzpatrick types IV-V. We avoid aggressive treatments that could worsen pigmentation.
Begin 6 months prior for optimal results. This allows time for treatment, healing, and maintenance before your special day.
Yes, genetic predisposition is common in South Indian families. If your mother or sister has melasma, you’re at higher risk.
Pure coconut oil doesn’t cause pigmentation but can increase photosensitivity. We recommend applying it at night only.
Post-pregnancy hormonal fluctuations trigger melasma. Combined with Thiruvananthapuram’s sun exposure, pigmentation often darkens. Treatment can begin 3 months post-delivery.
Cosmetic treatments aren’t typically covered, but we offer EMI options and package deals for multiple sessions.
Chlorinated water and sun reflection can trigger melasma. Apply waterproof SPF 50+ and wear a swimming cap to protect facial skin.
