Bhakti Advani · Answer

Hi @ishqaa tanwar ,

Melasma is caused due to the excess melanin production in the skin cells which is due to excessive exposure to the sun. Some other factors include hormonal changes in the body, toxins, stressful lifestyle.
You can try turmeric to overcome the dark spots as it can reduce the skin's melanin and can help combat melasma. Mix five tablespoons of turmeric powder with 10 tablespoons of milk to make a thick paste. It is better to use whole milk for this process. Apply this evenly on the affected area. After it dries up, you can wash your face with lukewarm water. This treatment can give you best results if you do it regularly.
