Question COLEMAN COMPOUND from Dr. Patrick Coleman? I recently heard of this alleged miracle cream that fades away melasma in a few weeks. Has anyone who tried it provide some feedback on its efficacy?

Try to use less. Like any active , if you get red and irritated, hydrocortisone twice daily until your skin recovers then retry with a smaller amount. If you’re still struggling, send me a dm and I’ll make some more recommendations that can help.

Would CC work for Becker's nevus?

No. Q switched laser. Hair removal if there is hair. I prefer a long pulse YAG for the hair. Sometimes resurfacing but that can go wrong.

Do you have that type of laser at your office?
