I'm curious about the cost and frequency of melasma treatment. Will I be able to go consistently while working?
Lately, every time I look in the mirror, my cheekbones look dull, so it really bothers me. It feels like they've gotten darker since I moved to a window seat at the office, and since applying sunscreen doesn't make much of a difference, I'm considering getting a consultation for melasma treatment.
As an office worker who often works overtime on weekdays, it is not easy for me to visit the clinic frequently. Therefore, I am wondering how often I typically need to visit once I start melasma treatment, and roughly how many sessions I should expect to see noticeable fading.
I would also like to know how long a single treatment takes and whether it is subtle enough to go to work the very next day. During the consultation, would it be better to ask if it is better to pay per session or if there is a package deal available?
If anyone has received treatment for melasma, I would be very grateful if you could feel free to share how you scheduled your treatment and if there were any specific areas you paid attention to during management. Thank you in advance!

- 01CommentsI 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!5960026.10.22

- 03CommentsI see that you are looking into my mother's skin concerns on her behalf. Since even blemishes that look similar on the surface need to be identified as specific types first, I am curious about your consultation criteria. Although I have no experience with procedures, would it be helpful to discuss my usual sun protection habits and available schedule during the consultation?520026.10.08
