I hate to do it since I would like my face to be accepted the way it is, but I am considering some sort of product to fade discoloration from getting old.

Like the more minor discoloration on the left here: [http://www.laskinworks.com/images/ipl1.jpg](http://www.laskinworks.com/images/ipl1.jpg)

I’ve had melasma on my lip and used hydroquinone products with not much in the way of results. Has anyone used a product they would recommend? What ingredients should I be looking for? I don’t have particularly sensitive skin.
