You’re consistent with your skincare, yet your melasma isn’t improving? You may be unknowingly making these common mistakes.
At-home melasma care is an emerging trend — especially in hot, humid countries like Macau, Singapore, and Hong Kong, where women lead busy lives. But without the right approach, even the most diligent routines can backfire.
Here are 5 common melasma treatment mistakes and how to correct them for truly effective results.
1. Over-applying in hopes of faster results
Many believe “the more product, the faster the result.” But overloading your skin with actives can lead to:
- Irritation, redness, peeling
- Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH)
- Damaged skin barrier
Melasma treatment is a marathon, not a sprint. Patience is key.
2. Using products not made for Asian skin
Asian skin is generally:
- Thinner and more sensitive than Western skin
- Prone to post-inflammatory pigmentation
- Easily affected by hormones, weather, and pollution
Many women unknowingly use foreign products with strong actives or heavy textures that aren’t compatible with Asian skin types — resulting in low efficacy or irritation.
Solution: Choose products formulated specifically for Asian skin, like LORÉNA DE LUXE, which uses Korean skincare technology and clinically safe ingredients tailored for sensitive skin.
3. Skipping sunscreen
No melasma treatment will work if your skin remains exposed to:
- UVA rays – break down collagen, weakening the skin
- UVB rays – trigger melanin production
- Blue light – from phones, laptops, and LED lighting, accelerating pigmentation
Even indoors, you must protect your skin with sunscreen or a UV-protective day cream like LORÉNA’s Brightening Day Cream.
4. Following trends instead of understanding melasma
Whitening creams, makeup-infused skincare, or brightening serums often only target the surface, failing to treat the deeper causes of melasma.
Using unknown mixtures or DIY serums can lead to:
- Darker patches after 2–3 months
- Thinner, more fragile skin with visible capillaries
- Long-term difficulty in treating skin conditions
Effective treatment must follow a scientific routine: inhibit melanin, restore skin, and prevent relapse.
5. Giving up too soon
Melasma is a deep pigment disorder — not something you can fix in days or with one bottle of serum.
Switching products frequently due to impatience destabilizes the skin and delays results.
Success lies in understanding your skin’s cycle — and choosing the right products to stay consistent.
