Update

I´m still here, still on my treatment, and still hoping my melasma stays put.

It´s been almost 2 months.

I´ve had some success in lightening and as I said I am happy to stay the way I am, but I am going to listen to my dermatologist and go in for my next Miami Peel. The first one went well, only slight peeling which helped my left cheek.

I am now on hydroquinone 6% and retinoic acid 0.025% cream, specially formulated by the pharmacist. I put it on at night and in the morning. I know this is scary, but it doesn´t burn my skin or anything. I have no reaction to it. I have heard some horror stories about hydroquinone in other blogs and have my worries.

As I said before, I am having camera problems, but hopefully tomorrow I can get another one and post pics. It´s always good to see how others are doing.
