Dear friend,
You might be aware of the Melasma as it affect six million women every year in US. It might happen due to exposure to sunlight on the face. Your cheeks are at a greater risk to get melasma. Endocrine dysfunction, oral contraceptives,cosmetics, medications and genetic reasons might result in melasma.

Melasma might appear on forehead, cheeks, nose, upper lip and chin which are more vulnerable to the sun exposure in the summer. Regular use of sun screen lotion with SPF 15 or above might be an effective way to treat melasma. You might consult a dermatologist if you are more affected with melasma.
