As a dermatologist, I know melasma, or hyperpigmentation in general, is a really tricky skin condition to treat. And it's something I've been dealing with throughout my pregnancy and while breastfeeding. So in this morning skincare routine, I share the skincare products I've been using to help treat my melasma from ISDIN, NATURIUM, Aveeno, Maelove, and more.

This was a much appreciated video! I love seeing products I haven't heard of before. Thank you!
Dr. Sam!!! Thank you so much for this melasma routine! Growing up on Long Island & living in California for 10 years, melasma appeared around 20 yrs ago! NOTHING REALLY WORKED! Saw this video purchased the products & already seeing results!!! Didnt realize until skin started clearing up how much melasma was actually on my face!!! I HAD a melasma mustache & beard!!!🤣🤣🤣Thanks again will continue to take your advice!!!!!
I've been using the Glow Maker for a couple of years and I love it! The Timeless one broke me out horribly, but this one never has.
I learned several things, including about several products. The most important thing I learned was to layer the products sparingly. I haven’t been and I am getting pilling. Thank you for that. Great video.
I've had a lot of luck lately with Faded by Topicals, Neostrata Enlighten vitamin C serum, Neostrata brightening Cleanser, and Heliocare orally. This video is so informational! Thank you so much!
I’d love to see a video explaining the best in office facial procedures. Fraxel, micro needling, clear & brilliant etc
I ordered the ISDIn sunscreen, I can't wait to try it.
Please do a night time skincare routine for melasma. Thank you.
There is a nighttime routine, 10 months ago. Check her video list.
@@magpiesneedle2575 thank you! I will look for that ☺️
I’m 55 y/o and recently started a skincare regimen 🤦🏻♀️I also have melasma. All the orders of skincare application include a toner. Do I need one if I’m following the AM melasma routine
Exactly what I wanted to know about! Good video! Thanks!
The tinted ISDIN sunscreen is my jam, the absolute best!!!
I mix the ISDIN tinted and non-tinted versions to get the right shade for me, as alone it is too warm-- or orange for me, but mixing the two works great. Also I have tried the Naturium Tranexamic Acid, but it burned my face; however, I have it added into my prescription from the Agency and have no issues with it.
Dr. Elllis, would you mind doing video on evening Malasma routine. Thank you for all your help, you are the best🥰
Thank you for this easy to follow regimen. Can you show your evening routine?
Love these videos. I appreciate seeing how you later the products and which products you use. Do you use the same products at night? Excluding the sunscreen.
Your content and delivery is the best! Have a great week!
Very useful video! Thank you, Dr. Ellis! Could you please make a video about milia around the eyes? Thank you!🌷
Dr Ellis can you please do a video on growth factors. What is it and is it beneficial? Should I include this into my skincare regimen? ❤️
The Maelove Glow Maker is great, but I'm partial to the Timeless Vitamin C with ferulic acid.
I have some stubborn melasma, and have even tried the Cyspera with zero luck. Done laser treatments, but the dark spots always come back. Unfortunately, I'm allergic to hydroquinone.
I've been using Retin-A since my 20s (not during pregnancy or nursing), and I'm 63. A great product for preventing wrinkles. I never go a day without sunscreen.
Thanks, Dr. Sam.
I love the Transamic acid serum! Effective and so affordable! One product I never hear anything about is the PHA 12% serum, it's such a gentle and effective exfoliator. They've been out of stock for weeks, I hope it isn't being discontinued!
Love this routine! Makes me wonder what you’re using at night, since some of these I use at night? 🤔 Is this morning routine used daily?
Hi Dr Ellis! Very interesting video! I would like to know: should I avoid using AHA in my routine if I already use Tranexamic acid, Azelaic acid and Retinoids? Should I use AHA maybe once a week or less? Thank you so much!
Loved this Dr Sam. I have started treating my sun spots a year ago. I told you about the Pico laser, which was great. How often do you do this routine with all these products? I know with HP it needs to be daily but just checking if you do this every morning. Thank you! Have fun with pickleball this summer :))
I really want ISDIN to come out with a fragrance-free version of their untinted mineral SPF!!!
Glad i found your channel. Very informative indeed. Greetings from. Malaysia.
Thank you. Watching you here in Brazil.
Thanks so much for your content!
Would you please do a video talking about what type of in office treatment/procedures that a dermatologist might recommend for malasma? What the potential down time might be and range of cost. I would hate to waist mine and Doc’s time if the procedures are more invasive than I would like or to cost prohibitive. Thanks for your help!
I have been using ISDIN for 10 years and i don’t think I’ll ever change it. It is a wonderful sunscreen 😊
What skin type do you have? I am over 50 with combo.Wanting to try it!
How is this sunscreen better than other sunscreen other than the anti aging affect? I recently use it and don’t think it looks good on the skin compare to my other sunblock. Also I apply it to my body and feel like the sunscreen just sit on my skin and transfer to everything I touch.
So many layers of different products!
Thank you so much for doing these! ❤️🇨🇦
Am starting this routine and hope it works....to be continued😊😊
Best video I watched will follow it
I forgot to add that I only use Fade Bright from Platinum skin care, I use their Vit C too. I like these products a lot. I like that you used several products. I need a few more to tackle my sun spots
Thank you! I've found that my sun damaged skin has responded well to EltaMD UV Clear sunscreen.
LOVE this sunscreen
Thank you Dr. Sam!!! I started using your morning skincare routine for hyper-pigmentation and my skin is starting to show signs of improvement!!!!! Please demo a night time routine for melasma. Thank you!!!
Me too!!!
How much tym it took ?
I have six years left and I still haven't left
thanks for the video, can you do a video for Melasma night skincare routine? what is your opinion to add the Retinol? Thank you
Thank you so much! That was great information. 😆
That great Doc. I will try it
I just loved your routine! Your new subscriber :)
Valuable advice Thnks so much!
Loved this video, Dr. Ellis! Faded by Topicals is another great hyperpigmentation fighting formula that has a ton of actives and can be layered nicely after Vitamin C.
I didnt know Faded could be use with vitamin C! What a gold mine! I'm definitely going to try it
@@Goat.Cheese Hey Emily, yes, it works really well 😊
please include a night time facial routine with someone on nightly melasma cream treatment
Thank you for this. Can make a video sharing peptide serums at different price points so that we can all include it in our routines? Thanks in advance
I don't have melasma, but I also use isdin sunscreen for previous sun damage from my youth & current. It's the best!! I use their sulfate-free hand wash / body wash. I love aveeno calm & restore face wash & their serum. The only complaint I have is the dropper is absolutely horrible!!!! I love the fact that it's unscented! My skin doesn't react to a very light scent & neither does my nose.
Great routine 👌🏼 Isdin is a great Spanish brand and is really popular in many Latin countries my favorite is spot prevent super high UVA and great for people that suffer Melasma
Thank you!
Thank you for this video. I would like to know what are your thoughts about Faded?
Hi doc, thank you for your videos. I would like to ask, have you heard about FADE? It is a serum that has tranexamic acid, melatonin, niacinamide and licorice root; my question is, could this be used in the morning like the Naturium serum you are using in this video? Thank you so much.
I love your skincare videos❤️
I also have a question
Can a 17 year old girl use hydrating eyecream in order to prevent wrinkles and to just moistrize the skin around her eyes?
Or is it too early for her?
If she can , can you please recommend a good hydrating eyecream suitable for her age , that won't cause her milia cus she has oily and acne prone skin.
I would also be happy to know your opinion on simple , Neutrogena and isana hydrating eyecreames 🙏🌻
Can you do your night routine for melasma? Since it’s a lot of serums for day time what’s the night routine please ❤️
Hello can you do a video specifically for sunscreen which is best for Milia prone skin?
Isdin sunscreen is great! I love Skinceuticals discoloration defense which has many ingredients you mentioned and Metacell renewal B3 with niacinamide, which I use as a moisturizer. My pretty severe melisma is definitely getting better. Plus VI peel when I have time.
Skincuticals dd is a waste in my opinion. You can get other products with the same ingredients for way less.
3% tranexamic acid
1% kojic acid,
5% niacinamide
Have you heard about Cosmelan Peel? this is waaay better than VI peel.
Thank you for all the information. Can sensitive skin people use these products?
Thanks for your video! What do you recommend for hyperpigmentation of the hands?
What brand and color nail polish are you wearing in this video? Very informative video.
Just sitting here admiring your jaw line and buccal areas. Great tutorial.
Thank you ! Great 👍
Have you tried Maelove's Fade Away to treat melasma? I would love to see a video on this. Thanks.
Thanks a lot for the video. Super interesting. I use 50 SFP spray. Is that as effective as the fluid you used on the video? I have that doubt😃🍉. Thanks again! 💕
Will you please do a similar video but for those of us on a budget?
Thank you!!!!! What about at night time.
Thank you for this routine. Do you think that Skinceuticals Fusion containing 5% zinc and 5% titanium is enough blockers to protect us from the sun? Please tell us if we need to be aware of the percentage of zinc. Thank you.
Thank you for explaining about hydroquinone, because I was wondering why did my dermatologist only prescribe Azellaic Acid for hyperpigmentation.
Love your videos! I have a list of your recommendations and it keeps getting longer 😆😬 definitely want to try the summer Fridays tinted sunscreen, saw that on instagram, and the sunscreen in this video!! I love everything I’ve bought that you recommended 👌🏼
loved the video! can I combine the routine with oral tranexamic acid?
Is it safe to mix an SPF tinted moisturizer into my sunscreen to make my own tinted sunscreen?
Hi Dr! Thank you for this video. I’ve been an aesthetician for 20 years and been using Isdin SPF for 6 years, and I add another layer of tinted spf on top during summer time. Xoxo
Tinted on top of not tinted?
Hey, Dr. Sam. What about the vit C bottle? Isn't best to only get the sealed pumps to protect the unstable L-Ascorbic?
Thank you doc! :) all amazing products.
Replenix Moisturizer looks so good def gonna try it. I tried the aveeno cleanser and maelove vitamin c serum, I loved the cleanser and serum is decent (as with all water based L-Ascorbic acid vitamin c serums, they smell bad, sting a bit and go bad pretty quickly) but results were good.
Products in my routine at the moment:
Cetaphil gentle cleanser (Affordable, Effective)
Prescription tretinoin cream
Drunk Elephant TLC framboos serum (chemical exfoliant, best I've tried imo)
Cerave Moisturising lotion (Affordable, Light yet hydrating, full of ceramides)
Ardent Berry Molecular active vitamin c serum (its from a small brand, really expensive but lasts a long time, results are amazing, made such a difference with my melasma. its water-free which makes it a bit oily but stable)
Clinique CityBlock SPF 50 (Mix of Chemical and mineral sunscreens, has a peachy tint, layers well, doesn't burn my eyes)
I just found your channel and I love it! I have Melasma and I have a ton of serums and just put them all on 😂
Dr. Ellis provides great info. !👍
Which dosage of Tetranexamic acid can we use to treat patients with melasma that is safe in the general practice clinic? For how long can people apply safely Hidroquinone?
Is there more afforable options for the expensive products
I never tire of these routine videos! Morning or night, love 'em. I'm going back to the States tomorrow and I'll definitely be buying that Aveeno oat cleanser! As for brightening products, I adore the SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF. I don't have a ton of dark spots, but since incorporating that serum my post-acne marks are less noticeable 💖
Love that serum too!!
Thank you very much for this video. I have a question, if my pigmentation is around my eyes how do I go ahead with the skin care regime? Can I apply these products that you have described around my eyes?
thank you
Hi , love your routine , but ? . The Meladerm can be used right after I layer the azelaic acid or just at night ?
Aw🥰♥️! Thanks a lot !!!
I just subscribed!
February 25,2023🥰
search Doctor Iyhere on CZcams, he has the herbal cure for black Spots............... .....
Went to an estitcan who told after using some type of machine said my skin was congested of course it is because I have melasma. I guess I'll try some these products.
Thank you for sharing,
Hi. Do I have to use Nuturium and Meladerm or can I use either one of them? Thank u!
Hi, thank you for your advise.
It is soo important to have experts advicing on every field in life!.
I have very textured (I have dark overgrouths on my face, scalp and around my body) dark, hyperpigmented, course, big pored skin (I'm Spanish, 55 and never protected against sun) but though I have dry skin, I always get millia - I used to suffer a lot of acne when young.
I thought that melasma treatment might help, but find that you use far to many layers... Each of my pores will have a brunch with sooo many lovely creams...
I need a daily, super light moisturiser lotion and sunscreen...
And a night moisturiser lotion too.. Very light and fluid...
What would you recommend?.
I was also just about to start with a niacinamide serum in the morning and a vitamin c in the evening (so that they don't interfere with each otrer).
Would that be a good plan?.
Thank you for your support.
I use light scrub in the shower and find it very smoothing and not abrasive at all!. But I don't rub very harshly... Just to help smoothen all the bummps on my skin...
I leave you now.
You do such a great job!.
Bless you!.
So, I started doing this routine when this video came out (well, it took about 4 days for Naturium delivery etc, but close). I’ve been using the Skinceuticals VitC, Naturium, and Meladerm (followed by Elta shield sunscreen) religiously for about two months every morning.
My melasma is almost completely gone. It was actually a great reminder that skincare takes patience, because for several weeks there was zero change. Then one day it began to exponentially improve. Thank you!!!!
I wonder if I should continue Naturium/Meladerm now that it’s gone…?
Shall we use vit c and azelaic acid and tranexemic oint one by one in the same time?or apply with separate?

Hi Dr. Sam🖐 I've been using Lancome beauty products and I feel it didn't works on my melasma..
well I will try your products that you're promoting.
How much is the full one set ?😊
Hi, thanks for sharing your morning skin care routine. If you wont mind, please share also your nightime routine. And what kind of naturium product do you use?
Does the isdin sunscreen you used give a dewy finish
Hi doc, what is the safe percentage for oral preceiption of tranexamic acid? Can you share more info about it pls
Are alpha Arbutin, Kojic acid and licorice root and tyrosinase inhibitors safe in pregnancy and breastfeeding?
Thank you so.much
Is ISDIN sunscreen is safe to use under my foundation make up?
I have also been hearing about good things about tumeric oil as a non-prescription product for dark spots. Any comments or suggestions? I just stopped using hydroquinone and
just want a simple one "serum/cream" item to use every night. What is your "must have item" besides sunscreen. I already use a koji cleanser, tinted sunscreen, heliocare, and other sunscreens.
Thank you.
What dose of Tranexemic Acid do you use.
My skin is dotted with tiny white stains, mor on arma and legs.
I live in tropical sunny City in Central América. Frequent pool or beach.
Thank you for your help. 🌈🌷
Hi dr should we put body sunscreen at home
Great video, Dr. Ellis. However, many of your products are quite expensive, especially using long term. Do you have any alternative products that are more affordable but still efficacious? Thanks so much!!
I’d follow along on my Instagram since I’m always giving product recs there!
Good information thank you. Music is annoying considering the amount of valuable information in the video.
Dr,
Plz do Night care for hyperpigmentation
What do you think of Hexylresorcinol? I'm curious.
How long does the Azelaic Acid takes. I have been using the 15% twice a day and don’t see any improvement on my face. In addition I use Retain A at night and of course my Vitamin C by Timeless which is 20% vitamins + E Ferulic Acid Serum. I also use the 10% Niacinamide by Inkey List. I am waiting for a break through to have even tone skin. Finally, I never forget to use my sunscreen although I am still waiting to find one I love.
Is it safe to use alpha arbutin in daily skin care routine? I have read that it can be hydrolysed in hydroquinone and can be harmful if used prolonged
This is an interesting routine which I will want to try. What if you're on a hydroquinone and retin A product. Do u have to wait and give your skin a break then go on thus routine
Hi Dr Ellis. Do I have to worry about photosensitivity when using Azelaic acid?
Thanks for your reply
