I feel that because Melasma is not a deadly disease some providers don’t take it as seriously and refer to aestheticians as if it were a cosmetic issue only. Melasma is a non curable issue still that affects life quality of the patient. It changes people’s life unable to enjoy outside, stress caused by people looking at your face not eye to eye when you talk it’s disfiguring and depressing.

Amen! It definitely is a hard thing to deal with mentally. You know it doesn’t hurt you, but affects life negatively. It’s hard to explain to other people when you get so down about it.
