I'm curious if Pico Toning is really effective for freckles around the cheekbones.

Now that I'm already in my mid-thirties, I can really feel every morning that my skin texture and recovery speed are completely different from before. In particular, as my overall facial tone has become dull and the blemishes around my cheekbones have deepened, my once clear complexion looks dark, and people around me keep asking if I look tired. So, I am seriously considering getting Pico Toning, a treatment that is said to break down melanin pigments to refine them. I'm curious if I can really see the effect of my complexion becoming brighter and clearer immediately if I get Pico Toning on blemishes with slightly blurred edges like mine. As a working professional, I'm also worried about how long side effects like facial redness or downtime last after the procedure. If anyone has had this treatment, I would be grateful if you could share some practical tips regarding the cost-effectiveness and the duration of the results.
