Melasma Treatment in Gurgaon, Led By a Dermatologist Who Treats It Slowly and Correctly
Careful, Layered, Doctor-Led.
Melasma is not ordinary pigmentation, and it does not respond well to being rushed. Every melasma protocol at Mediglo, on Golf Course Road, Sector 55, Gurgaon, is personally designed and supervised by Dr. Jaspreet Kour, so the pace and intensity are matched to your skin rather than a fixed package.
Melasma is hormonal, deep pigmentation, and that single fact changes almost everything about how it should be treated. Unlike a sun tan or post-acne mark that sits closer to the skin’s surface, melasma often runs deeper and is driven by hormonal activity, pregnancy, birth control, thyroid changes, or stress, layered on top of sun exposure and heat. That is why the same aggressive laser or peel that clears freckles in a few sessions can actually worsen melasma if it is used without care. Anyone searching for melasma treatment in Gurgaon deserves to know that upfront, because it is the single biggest difference between a protocol that works and one that backfires.
At Mediglo, melasma is treated with a cautious, layered approach rather than a one-size-fits-all package. Dr. Jaspreet Kour, an MBBS from Maharashtra University of Health Sciences with postgraduate training in Dermatology, Venereology and Trichology from Valavalkar Medical College and fellowship training in aesthetic lasers in Australia, personally designs or supervises every melasma protocol at the clinic. That matters here more than almost anywhere else in aesthetic dermatology, because getting the sequencing wrong on melasma can set a patient back months.
The treatment itself typically centres on Cosmelan and Dermamelan, which are recognised as the global gold standards for melasma specifically, often paired with hormone-trigger management and, for patches that resist peels alone, targeted Q-Switch Nd:YAG laser sessions. If your concern is more general, such as sun tan, freckles, or fading old acne marks rather than hormonal melasma, our broader pigmentation-treatment-in-gurgaon programme may be the more direct starting point. This page is specifically for the deeper, hormonally driven pattern that needs a slower, more medically supervised hand.

The Process
How It Works
A step-by-step look at what happens during your session, and why doctor-performed technique matters at every stage.
Diagnosis and Hormone Review
Dr. Kour examines the pigmentation with Wood’s lamp and dermoscopy to map how deep it sits, and talks through likely hormonal triggers such as pregnancy, contraceptive use, thyroid history, or stress, since these need to be managed alongside the skin itself.
Cautious Layered Priming
Because aggressive treatment can worsen melasma, the first phase focuses on barrier repair, gentle brightening topicals, and strict SPF 50+, building tolerance before any peel or laser is introduced.
Cosmelan or Dermamelan Application
Based on severity, a clinic-applied Cosmelan or Dermamelan mask is followed by a structured home protocol, with visible improvement typically unfolding over 3 to 6 months rather than overnight.
Targeted Q-Switch Laser for Resistant Patches
For melasma that does not fully settle with peels alone, Dr. Kour layers in Q-Switch Nd:YAG laser sessions every 2 to 4 weeks, calibrated conservatively for Indian, Fitzpatrick IV to V skin.
Ongoing Hormone-Trigger Management and Maintenance
Because melasma can return without maintenance, the plan continues with SPF discipline, maintenance topicals, and periodic review of hormonal triggers well after visible clearing.
Candidacy
Who It’s For
This is for anyone dealing with the stubborn, patchy, often symmetrical facial pigmentation that classic pigmentation creams and quick facials never quite touch, especially if it appeared or worsened during pregnancy, after starting birth control, alongside a thyroid condition, or during a stressful period. It suits people who have already tried surface-level treatments without lasting change, as well as those who are new to treating melasma but want to start with a medically cautious plan rather than an aggressive one. It is equally well suited to first-timers and to people who have been managing melasma for years and are ready for a properly sequenced, doctor-supervised approach.
Before & After Care
Do’s and Best Avoided
Simple, positive guidance to help you get the most out of your treatment.
Do
✓Wear SPF 50+ every single day, reapplying roughly every 3 hours if you are outdoors, since sun exposure is one of melasma’s biggest triggers.
✓Mention pregnancy, breastfeeding, birth control use, or thyroid history at your consultation, since these hormonal factors shape the treatment plan.
✓Follow the home protocol that comes with your Cosmelan or Dermamelan programme exactly as given, since consistency between clinic sessions matters as much as the sessions themselves.
✓Use gentle, sulphate-free cleansers and ceramide-rich moisturisers during and after peel phases to support the skin barrier.
✓Give the programme time. Results usually build over 3 to 6 months, not days.
Best Avoided
✕Attempt at-home peels, strong retinol, or aggressive exfoliation on your own while undergoing melasma treatment, since this can trigger a flare.
✕Skip sunscreen on cloudy days or when staying indoors near windows, since UV and even visible light can worsen melasma.
✕Expect a single laser session to resolve melasma. It genuinely needs the layered, patient approach outlined above.
✕Stop maintenance care as soon as pigmentation fades, since melasma carries a real recurrence risk without ongoing SPF and topical support.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Does melasma treatment hurt?
Most patients describe a warm or tingling sensation during peel application and a mild snapping sensation during Q-Switch laser passes, both generally well tolerated with minimal discomfort.
What is the best treatment for melasma on face at Mediglo?
For most patients it is a Cosmelan or Dermamelan programme, layered carefully with hormone-trigger management, and combined with Q-Switch laser only for patches that resist the peel alone.
Is laser melasma treatment safe on its own?
Laser alone can help, but on deep, hormonal melasma it works best layered with a Cosmelan or Dermamelan peel programme and SPF discipline, since laser by itself carries a higher risk of flare-ups if used aggressively.
How many sessions does treatment for melasma on face usually take?
A Cosmelan or Dermamelan programme runs over roughly 3 to 6 months including home protocol, with 4 to 8 Q-Switch sessions every 2 to 4 weeks added for resistant areas.
How soon will I see results?
Early lightening is often visible within the first several weeks, with fuller results from the Cosmelan or Dermamelan programme building over 3 to 6 months.
Is hyperpigmentation melasma treatment different from regular pigmentation treatment?
Yes. Melasma is hormonal, deep pigmentation that needs a slower, layered protocol with hormone-trigger management, whereas surface pigmentation like sun tan or freckles usually responds faster to standard peels and laser.
How much does melasma treatment in Gurgaon cost at Mediglo?
The Dermamelan programme is approximately Rs 1,20,000 for severe melasma or hyperpigmentation, and Cosmelan is approximately Rs 50,000, with your exact plan confirmed after Dr. Kour’s assessment.
Can face melasma treatment be combined with other treatments?
Yes, Cosmelan and Dermamelan are often combined with Q-Switch laser for resistant patches, and gentle skin boosters can be added to support overall brightness once melasma is under control.
Is this treatment safe during or after pregnancy?
Many melasma cases are pregnancy or hormone linked, so Dr. Kour reviews your hormonal history at consultation and paces the protocol accordingly, since this is exactly the kind of case that needs medical oversight rather than a generic peel.
Is melasma treatment right for first-timers?
Yes, the cautious, layered approach used at Mediglo is designed to start gently regardless of whether this is your first treatment or your fifth attempt elsewhere.
Will melasma come back after treatment?
Melasma does carry a recurrence risk without maintenance, which is why ongoing SPF use and periodic review of hormonal triggers are built into every plan here.
Who should I consult before starting melasma treatment?
Anyone with facial pigmentation that looks patchy, symmetrical, or hormone-linked should see a dermatologist like Dr. Kour before starting any peel or laser, since melasma responds very differently from ordinary pigmentation.

Priya Nair
I'd tried almost every acne cream before coming to MediGlo. Dr. Kour actually explained why my skin was breaking out instead of just prescribing something — within two months it had calmed down more than it had in years.
K
Karan Mehta
I was nervous about looking "done" after Botox, but the results were subtle and completely natural. Friends noticed I looked well-rested, not different.
S
Sunita Verma
My hair fall had gotten so bad I avoided tying it up in public. Three months into treatment at MediGlo, I'm finally seeing new growth along my hairline.
A
Aisha Khan
The pigmentation on my cheeks had gotten worse every year. The team took the time to actually diagnose what type of melasma I had before starting treatment, which no one had done before.
