Abstract：Melasma is a kind of facial pigmented disease, which is complicated and difficult to treat. At present, the methods of treating melasma include oral medicine, external application drug, laser and so on. The combination of multiple methods is often used. With the introduction of the principle of selective photothermal action and the rapid development of laser technology, great progress has been made in the laser treatment of melasma. In this review, we discussed the clinical application of the picosecond laser, non ablative fractional laser, ablative fractional laser, Q-switched Nd:YAG laser and intense pulsed light in the treatment of melasma.
