My skin breaks out every time the seasons change. When should I start laser treatment for melasma?
I have dry skin, so it tends to break out every time the seasons change. However, I am also constantly bothered by the melasma that appeared after pregnancy, so I am considering starting laser treatment this winter.
My biggest question is whether it is okay to receive melasma laser treatment even when my skin is breaking out, red, and flaky. I am also wondering if it is better to wait until it calms down before starting, and how to reschedule an appointment in that case.
I'm worried about whether it's okay to take a break if my skin breaks out again during the laser treatment, and whether my melasma might get darker again while I'm resting. I would also appreciate it if you could tell me how to moisturize and cleanse at home when my skin is sensitive. I'm also curious about the typical interval between treatments once I start.

- 02CommentsSince blackheads and enlarged pores require different treatment goals, it would be helpful to ask during the consultation if they can be differentiated first. As the number of sessions varies from person to person, please try to schedule an evaluation together after the first treatment.220026.11.04

- 02CommentsI 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!7120026.10.22
