Melasma - Is This the Clear Solution?

I have had melasma for years and everything I have tried has been useless! It just comes right back afterwards. Then desperately searching the net for help one day I found the site www.melasma.co.uk, I read the info, studied the before and after photos then still feeling a bit uncertain I contacted Miss Wild herself. She was very helpful and explained that even with MSM there were no guarantees that my melasma would go, but that if I followed all the steps in the book carefully it would increase my chances of seeing results. She also said that she has plans to update her book one day and that even more natural alternative solutions will be included, all tried and tested of course by true melasma sufferers, just in case MSM doesn't work for the reader. So you have a choice now all you lot out there - take it! You don't have to put up with being fobbed off by derms with harmful bleaching creams that cost $$$$$$!!! Anyway feeling encouraged to give this a real shot I went ahead and ordered the book. I am happy to say that I haven't looked back since! The book outlines exactly what you need to do so read it over and over again before you start, it isn't just about taking MSM sulfur, there's a lot more to it than that. There are numerous encouraging testimonials included from fellow sufferers from all corners of the globe lending weight to the realization that this really could be the only natural alternative solution to conventional treatments for melasma. Mine hasn't totally gone yet but what I have left no longer darkens in the sun which is great news for me! Keep spreading the word Vanessa and thank you again and again!

I don't take anything a medical doctor says at face value. After researching melasma extensively I came across this book and its the best hope out there for us with the disease. My dermatologist offered me no hope and and a very expensive prescription. I know however that there is always an alternative to chemicals and this is the solution for this particular problem. My melasma has been such an embarassment to me. It's not life threatening, but when I can't look people in the eye any more it's humiliating. This book is worth keeping and reading over and over so you don't get discouraged while you are on the MSM. The MSM does not work over night and in my opinion works better if you change your diet and try and balance your hormones while taking it. This book gives such great advice as each of us is different. Many women write about their experience while on the MSM. If you are like me you would do just about anything to get rid of this horrible problem, so nothing is lost by buying this book.

If you are a true Melasma sufferer like myself, you will really appreciate the information found in this book. This is the only book that I found out there that actually discussed using MSM to help get rid of this particular problem and in my case it worked wonderfully. Hearing the experiences of others was what I needed to give me the reason to try it. I am very glad that I spent the very small amount of money necessary to find out what I needed to do.

This book is great for those who have tried every topical treatment for hyperpigmentation. After varying the levels of my birth control pills, I got the worst hyper pigmentation on my upper lip literally overnight. I have since been on a very expensive 2-year trek to fix this embarrassing situation. I've used the retin-A/hydroquinone combination, the pulse laser treatments, gone to the top "Hollywood facialist to the stars" as well as every product out there containing hydroquinone, kojic acid, vitamin C and everything that is touted to remove hyperpigmentation. Some of these actually caused it to get darker because I have Asian skin that turns traumatized areas darker. I must've spent close to $5,000 with minimal, if any, results.I've been since using various concealers to cover up the problem. I used to be proud of my skin and the fact that I had to wear make up to cover something up made me very self-conscious.Since finding the website and book, I've been taking MSM with wonderful results. It's been a little over a month. Right now, I have a cold and any concealer put on that area gets rubbed off whenever I blow my nose (which right now is every 5-10 minutes), and visited a friend that I haven't seen for a couple years. She commented on how great I looked and I felt great even without the concealer. The dark areas are broken up and much lighter. I'm comfortable being seen without any concealer. I still see dark areas but my fiancé says he doesn't see it anymore .... and he used to joke about my mustache (at one point he called me Mr. Kotter). I was so traumatized by the melasma that I think I'll always be looking for it.The book is very short and to the point, which is perfect for those of us desperate for a solution. When I go to the health food store to buy my MSM, I've found that most of the salespeople there have never heard of using it as a way to treat melasma. Hopefully they'll be able to pass it along to others whose self-esteem has suffered from melasma "mustaches"!

After three years of pestering my GP in order to be taken seriously, I finally paid to see a dermatologist and was told that the discolouration on my face was called Melasma (also known as Chloasma). She told me all the bad news and that, really, there was no good news. It was incurable and would probably get worse. I was devastated, but being accustomed to being proactive about my health, I was unwilling to accept her word as final. Armed at last with a name for my "problem", I searched the internet and stumbled upon melasma.co.uk and this book - and a possible solution. Since reading this book, I have been using MSM, first in tablet form and more recently in powder form for approximately three months. I noticed a change in the quality of the brown areas on my face within just two weeks and since then they have been gradually breaking down, to the point where I am beginning to believe they will eventually go, or be so faint as to be almost unnoticeable. I have gone from despair to triumph and offer my heartfelt thanks to Vanessa Wild for having the courage to fly in the face of accepted medical opinion and go public with her findings. In the light of European attempts to restrict the sale of nutritional supplements in the UK, it is all the more important that the information in this book is publicly available so that people have a chance to be proactive in dealing with health matters. My condition would probably be a lot worse had I not already been filtering my water and eating a fairly healthy diet. I also take quite a few supplements (hence my ire at the government for allowing Europe to ride roughshod over individual freedoms) and I would like to think that all of my attempts to take care of myself have reduced the level of problem I could have been facing. In the not too distant future, I'm due to go back to my GP and fill him in on all developments. It's good to know that I can return from a position of strength and tell him that I have discovered what is really out there - beyond the world of quick-fix prescription medicine and the nutritional ignorance that is endemic in the medical profession. In addition to the helpful information about MSM there are a lot of encouraging anecdotes from fellow sufferers around the globe, all of which adds support to the idea that this could be a viable alternative to conventional treatments for Melasma. Vanessa - keep up the good work. People need to know there are better and more effective ways to deal with Melasma than burning, bleaching or applying other chemicals to the affected areas. More power to you - keep spreading the good news.
