The problem now is finding out if any regine will now fix the melasma but not heal the damage done by all the peals, etc. Either way I am going to get the Grapefruit extract and try it.

Also, I can totally relate with you on missing out on family activities. I am usually the one hiding under a hat not wanting to mess up my "war paint" that I have on. I live in AZ where it can reach 115 degrees in the summer and I have a pool but I can't even use it because it makes the melasma worse. I'm going to take a picture of my face before and do a weekly check or how the Grapefruit extract is working. Can we post pics on here to show our progression?

Have a great day everyone!
Hi CinAZ,

I am sure you can post pics on this forum.
We are all on the same page when it comes to melasma..we "restrict" our lives because of it.
I can't wait to see your results..
good luck!

Cheers,
G

I am not sure, but just to be on the "safe" side and ensure full absorption of the GSE I take it with water.
I am so happy that you have decided to try it out...it does make a difference!
Also keep at it, I know the taste is bitter, but the key is perserverance.
Good Luck, let us know of your results. (also, I am not sure if I mentioned that acidoplis also needs to be taken at separate time than the GSE, replaces "good bacteria" in system)

Cheers,

Gigi,
Thanks for the tip. I thought about buying the GSE but couldn't find it...now that I know Whole Foods sells it I'll stop by this week and give it a try.

Re: dermal melasma
Good luck. I hope you see improvement with your new cream. I know melasma truly affects your self esteem. We constantly look at people who have nice even skin tone and wish we could get ours back. Keep trying, we all are.

Re: dermal melasma
Hello, I have tried Tri Luma and it did great on me. I have used it for 3 months already. My doctor prescribed to me and I did not think it was going to do wonders. I would like to know if any one buys meds on line from Mexican pharmacy Medicine Mexico FREE shipping WITHOUT prescription My husband just lost his jod and we don't have health insurance anymore. I think it will be cheaper to get Triluma on line just because I don't need a prescription for it. Thank you!

Re: dermal melasma
Sandrav,

I'm so happy to hear that Tri-luma worked for you, I tried it a long time ago and did not work for me. One word of advise, use caution when purchasing prescription meds from another country. You may or may not get what you order. There are no guarantees and I'm not so sure that it is legal to buy prescription drugs from a foreign country, however, I don't know for sure. I hope you continue getting good results from your treatment. I am looking forward to the day I find something that works.

Re: dermal melasma
I have melasma as well and recently has gotten worse. The only thing that has worked in the past was Cosmelan. I hear there is a new formulation. I also have been in contact with the MD who formulates Amelan but both are so expensive. Has anyone ever used the new formulation of cosmelan?

thanks
