I am curious about the treatment cycle, effectiveness, and number of sessions for melasma laser therapy.

Lately, the melasma around my cheekbones and on my cheeks seems to be getting darker, so I started looking into laser treatments. Now that I have entered my 40s, perhaps due to UV rays or hormonal influences, the pigmentation is appearing faster, and I feel that home care alone has reached its limits.

Since this is my first time getting this treatment, I am wondering which method is best suited for my skin condition, as there are various types of melasma lasers such as toning and pico. I would also like to know if the recommended treatment schedule is generally consistent, involving at least 10 sessions at intervals of 1 to 2 weeks, or if I should space the sessions further to minimize skin irritation.

In addition, please let me know if washing my face or applying makeup is possible immediately on the same day after the melasma laser treatment, and if there are any special precautions I should take regarding sun protection or moisturizing after the procedure.

  • 광대 주변 기미가 점점 진해지는 것 같다는 말씀 읽으면서 남 일 같지 않았어요ㅠㅠ 저도 임신 후에 생긴 기미 때문에 토닝이랑 피코 중에 뭐가 저한테 맞는지 상담받아 보려고 해요. 1~2주 간격으로 10회 정도가 보통인지, 시술 당일 세안이랑 화장은 바로 되는지 답변 달리면 저도 같이 볼게요!
