First, generally this isn’t referred to as melasma because it isn’t caused by the interaction of female hormones and light exposure. Other causes can include genetic (other people in your family may...
Okay – I really wish that the Thermage body tip worked well for this but it doesn’t! Please don’t waste your money. There is an occasional person who gets a great result...
Depending on how long you’ve had this and your overall body type, it would be a good idea to talk to your doctor before doing anything cosmetic. Sometimes that fatty...

One of the best investments in your skin is your daily skincare. Why? Because you can prevent many problems with blotchy skin color, lack of glow, texture, some types of acne, and fine lines with good skincare products. You can also correct some of these problems with effective skincare products. Great skincare is often more expensive because quality ingredients are expensive. Some companies spend on research/development which benefits all of us and adds to the cost. Are they worth it? In general - yes! I have handpicked some of what I consider to be the best skin care products, and offer them for sale on SkinTour's shop. This is based on my team and I's testing and research at our clinic. Many of the products are in my own regimen. What could be better than using skin care products a dermatologist uses?!
