Melasma is a skin condition characterized by dark patches on the face. In Australia, common treatments include topical creams (e.g., hydroquinone), chemical peels, and lasers such as Q-switched ruby or fractional CO2.
Australia's hot climate can aggravate melasma. Use sun protection and wear wide-brimmed hats to minimize sun exposure.
