Hi! I've been constantly bothered by the melasma and blemishes that appeared since I got pregnant, so I want to start taking proper care of them this winter. Since I have winter break, it seems like it will be a bit easier to find the time.
While researching melasma laser treatments, I heard a lot of talk about how it isn't a one- or two-session process. I'm curious about the typical recommended number of sessions and how to space them out. I'd also like to know if I can make some progress before school starts if I focus on treatment during the break.
I'm also curious if melasma and blemishes are mixed together; can they be treated with a single laser, or if the blemishes need to be treated separately? I think I would be less worried if I knew in advance if there are periods when the melasma actually looks darker!
