My melasma and blemishes keep getting darker. Has anyone seen results from melasma treatment? ㅠㅠ

Hello! Starting a few months ago, blemishes like freckles began appearing one by one, and my overall skin tone looks dull, so I have been under a lot of stress lately.

I make sure to apply sunscreen when I go out, but as I get older, I definitely feel that there are limits to what cosmetics can do to block the rise in melanin pigmentation. Even when I try to cover it up with makeup before going to work, the uneven texture and dull skin tone aren't completely concealed, so I am considering getting treatment for melasma.

However, I have heard that melasma treatment usually doesn't show noticeable results after just one or two sessions, and that you need to undergo the scheduled course consistently for at least 5 to 10 sessions to see proper effects. For those of you who have received melasma treatment, please share your experiences and tell me at which session you actually started to feel the lightening effect!
