If you are worried about managing freckles, blemishes, or dull skin tone?
Melasma, blemishes, and dull skin tone are difficult to explain solely as a problem of pigment rising to the surface of the skin.
Pigmentation may appear more prominent as various factors such as UV rays, skin heat, inflammatory reactions, dryness, and the condition of the skin barrier work together.
Therefore, pigmentation management does not always progress in the same way simply by repeating laser treatments. There are some people who feel that their skin tone does not look as clear as expected, even while receiving Pico Toning or Dual Toning, because their skin becomes dry or sensitive.
Maypure Clinic Dongdaemun Branch In such cases, we use Meladuse, a skin booster designed for whitening and melasma management, as one of the methods to consider. In this article, we will explain how Meladuse approaches skin tone management and who it may be suitable for.

What is Meladuse Skin Booster?
Meladus A skin booster designed for whitening and blemish management, considering both skin hydration and tone. no see.
While typical skin boosters often focus on hydration, elasticity, and improving skin texture, Meladuse is characterized by an ingredient composition that also considers the management of blemishes, dark spots, and dull skin tone.
Meladuse contains the following ingredients.
* Niacinamide
Alpha-Arbutin
* Vitamin C
* Tranexamic acid
* Glutathione
* Hyaluronic acid, HA-based ingredients
These ingredients can be utilized for purposes such as skin tone management, management related to the melanin production process, antioxidant effects, and moisture replenishment, respectively. However, actual post-procedure reactions may vary depending on the individual's skin condition, pigmentation patterns, and previous treatment history.

Why is a comprehensive approach necessary for managing freckles and blemishes?
Melasma and blemishes are not merely a problem of visible pigmentation, but are also related to the recurring cycle of melanin production deep within the skin.
Therefore, pigmentation management can be considered in two main directions.
The first is managing pigmentation that is already visible. This is an area primarily handled by laser treatments such as Pico Toning and Dual Toning.
The second is to reduce the environment that makes the skin look dull or causes pigmentation to stand out. This includes managing ingredients related to the skin barrier, dryness, oxidative stress, and the melanin production process.
Meladuse can be described as an auxiliary treatment that considers both skin tone management and moisture replenishment when skin dryness, dullness, and pigmentation concerns are present together.
⸻
Can I receive this along with Pico Toning?
Depending on your skin condition, you may consider combining Pico Toning and Meladuse.
Pico Toning targets pigmented lesions on the skin with a laser, while Meladuse delivers whitening, melasma management ingredients along with moisturizing components to the skin. Since the two procedures have different approaches, they can be planned together depending on your skin condition.
However, combined treatment is not suitable for everyone. If you have sensitive skin, experience excessive heat, or have persistent redness or dryness following a recent strong laser procedure, it may be necessary to adjust the treatment interval.
At Maypure Clinic Dongdaemun Branch, after confirming your skin condition, melasma depth, recent treatment history, and skin sensitivity through a consultation, we provide guidance on whether to proceed with Pico Toning alone, in combination with Meladduce, or adjust the treatment interval.

You can consider this for these people
Meladyuse can be considered by those with the following concerns.
When skin tone looks dull due to freckles or blemishes
If you are receiving Pico Toning but your skin looks dry or rough
If you want to manage both skin tone and texture
* For those who find laser treatments burdensome or are considering gradual skin tone management first
If you want to manage both skin hydration and a clear skin tone
However, if the pigmentation is deep, hormonal melasma is prominent, or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is progressing, a comprehensive management plan following diagnosis may be necessary rather than approaching it with a single procedure.
⸻
In such cases, consultation is required first.
Meladuse is a procedure that delivers ingredients to the skin via injection. Therefore, consultation with a medical professional is required first in the following cases.
* In cases of dermatitis, contact dermatitis, or severe acne inflammation
If recovery is incomplete following a recent strong laser or peeling procedure
If bruising or swelling occurs easily at the injection site
* If you have had an allergic reaction to a specific ingredient
If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a possibility of being pregnant or breastfeeding.
In particular, since melasma is affected by various skin types and aggravating factors, it is important to check your skin condition first rather than approaching it solely with whitening ingredients.
How does the procedure proceed?
The Meladuse procedure proceeds in a similar manner to a standard skin booster treatment.
1. Medical examination and skin condition check
We check the pattern of pigmentation, skin dryness, sensitivity, and history of recent laser treatments.
2. Cleansing and application of anesthetic cream
If necessary, apply anesthetic cream after cleansing to reduce discomfort during the procedure.
3. Meladys injection
We inject Meladuses tailored to your skin condition and problem areas.
4. Post-procedure instructions
We provide guidance on potential reactions after the procedure, as well as precautions such as UV protection and moisturizing care.
In-clinic, depending on the skin condition, a method of performing the procedure multiple times at one-week intervals may be considered, and the actual number of sessions and intervals are adjusted according to the depth of the melasma, history of previous treatments, and skin sensitivity.
How should I care for my skin after the procedure?
After the procedure, sun protection and moisturizing are important. Managing melasma and blemishes requires not only the procedure itself but also lifestyle care to minimize skin irritation.
It is recommended to avoid applying strong stimulation to the treated area on the day of the procedure. It is advisable to avoid activities that can cause a sensation of heat, such as saunas, hot compresses, excessive alcohol consumption, and strenuous exercise, for a certain period.
In addition, as the skin may become temporarily sensitive after the procedure, it is recommended to adjust the use of strong peeling products or irritating home care products according to the medical staff's instructions.
Reactions that may occur after the procedure
Since Meladuse is an injectable skin booster, the following reactions may occur immediately after the procedure.
* Injection marks
* Embossing, temporary skin bumps
* Redness
Temporary burning sensation
* Bruise
Bookkeeping
stinging
* Rarely allergic reactions to the ingredients
Most reactions subside over time, but recovery speeds vary from person to person. If adverse reactions persist or worsen after the procedure, please visit the clinic for a medical consultation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. How is Meladyuse different from Rejuran or exosomes?
Rejuran and exosome-based products are widely used primarily for skin regeneration, barrier function, skin texture, and elasticity management.
In contrast, Meladuse differs in that its ingredient composition focuses on whitening, managing blemishes and dull skin tone. Which treatment is more suitable may depend on whether your skin concerns are centered on pigmentation or on regeneration and elasticity.
Q2. Can I receive this at the same time as Pico Toning?
You may consider combining them depending on your skin condition.
Pico Toning targets pigments with a laser, while Meladuse delivers whitening and melasma management ingredients along with moisturizing components to the skin. However, if your skin is sensitive or you experience severe redness or dryness after the laser treatment, it may be necessary to adjust the treatment interval.
We will check your skin condition during the consultation and advise on whether to proceed with the treatment.
Q3. Can I resume my daily activities immediately after the procedure?
Most daily activities are possible, but due to the nature of the injection procedure, bumps, redness, bruising, swelling, and burning sensations may occur immediately after the procedure.
If you have an important schedule, it is recommended to schedule the procedure well in advance.
Q4. Can melasma be managed with Meladys alone?
Melasma is caused by various factors, including ultraviolet rays, hormones, skin inflammation, heat sensation, and the skin barrier.
Therefore, rather than relying on Meladuse alone, it is recommended to consider using it in combination with Pico Toning, moisturizing and barrier care, and UV protection depending on your skin condition.
Q5. How severe is the pain?
Since this is an injection-type skin booster, you may experience a stinging or pressure sensation.
It varies depending on pain sensitivity, and if necessary, the procedure can be performed by using anesthetic cream to reduce discomfort.
