Would procedures like lasers or IPL help in getting rid of melasma?

I am very worried because the melasma on my face is getting darker. So lately, I have been looking into ways to get rid of it. I am wondering if undergoing dermatological procedures is the most effective method, or if some improvement is possible with home care products. In particular, I have heard that treatments like lasers or IPL are helpful for removing melasma, but I would like to know how long the effects actually last. I am also concerned about the possibility of my skin becoming sensitive or experiencing side effects when trying these methods. If anyone has personal experience with these procedures, it would be a great help if you could share which method you were most satisfied with and how you managed your post-treatment care. I am still undecided on which method to choose, so I would appreciate hearing various opinions.
