Can hyperpigmentation occur during melasma treatment?

01
The melasma on my cheekbones has gotten darker. I'm curious about the laser treatment schedule.[4]
CommentsI sympathize with your concern that the redness might worsen after the procedure, as you have skin prone to flushing. I am also curious about how the consultation determines whether the treatment cycle should be weekly or bi-weekly, so I will be waiting for your reply.

If I start melasma laser treatment in the winter, how should I schedule the treatment cycle?[4]
CommentsEven if you start in the winter, rather than strictly adhering to a fixed schedule, please have your pigmentation type and current dryness examined first. It would be helpful to create a plan if you receive guidance on how to adjust the interval based on the reaction after the first session, as well as how to use moisturizers and sunscreen.

I would like to inquire about laser treatments for acne scars or pores! Please give me some recommendations.[10]
CommentsIt must be very stressful for you that enlarged pores and scars are difficult to cover up even with makeup. I am also looking into laser treatments, and I’ve heard that combining PicoFraxel or Subcision is very effective.

I'm wondering if I need to get Dual Toning if my melasma is spread out widely.[7]
CommentsI sympathize with you because I share the same concerns regarding melasma that appeared after pregnancy. From what I learned during my consultation, Dual Toning combines toning treatments with different wavelengths, so it is often chosen when there is a mix of epidermal blemishes and melasma deep within the dermis. While combining them is sometimes recommended for widely spread melasma because a single wavelength doesn't produce an even response, the final decision depends on skin thickness and pigment depth, so it is best to confirm this during a consultation for accuracy. The intervals are usually set at 1 to 2 weeks, and you need to receive at least 5 sessions consistently to see results; I was advised to take photos under the same lighting at the 3rd or 4th session to compare them. You should apply sunscreen immediately on the day of the procedure, and it is safe to start applying makeup the following day. Reapplying sunscreen every 2 to 3 hours and carrying a hat or parasol can significantly reduce concerns about recurrence. I hope you achieve great results!

What kind of care should I start with for skin prone to severe redness during the change of seasons?[6]
CommentsIt seems like my skin gets more sensitive and my redness gets worse whenever the seasons change. ㅠㅠ Especially when there's a big temperature difference between indoors and outdoors, my face really flushes out, you know? lol At times like this, instead of applying all sorts of products, I think it's better to minimize irritation and focus on moisturizing first.

During the Maypure blemish laser consultation, is it possible to choose to check the response starting with a small area?[14]
CommentsI think it would be less of a burden if I could start with a small scope. That is a good question.

Would it be okay to decide on a one-time basis after the melasma consultation? I would like to know the number of sessions and the cost.[11]
CommentsI understand your desire to make a decision after understanding the frequency and costs. Could I also receive written guidance on the settlement criteria if I change the plan midway?

How often do I usually get Pico Toning treatments?[11]
CommentsI heard that the interval for Pico Toning is determined differently depending on your skin condition and the type of pigmentation. If you are worried about getting treatments too frequently, ask them to set the interval based on your skin type during the consultation, and also inquire at which session you want to check your progress. They say it is really important to be meticulous about sun protection after the procedure!
