[Inquiry] Would receiving Pico Toning and Aqua Peel together be more effective for improving melasma, blemishes, or blackheads?

Hello! I am writing this post on the Maypure community because I am incredibly stressed about my dull complexion and unsightly blemishes every time I look in the mirror. ㅠㅠ I remember my skin looking clear even if I just roughly applied sunscreen before going out, but perhaps because I have been neglecting UV protection as I've gotten older, I can see melasma and dark spots appearing day by day. The pigmentation is intensifying particularly around my cheekbones and under my eyes, making my overall appearance look so tired and lifeless that I just sigh every time I look in the mirror. On top of that, perhaps because it is summer, my nose and butterfly zone are clogged with blackheads and sebum, making my pores look even wider. No matter how thickly I apply makeup, it just shines on the surface and cakes, which is driving me crazy. ㅠㅠ Since home brightening ampoules or nose strips are simply not working, I have finally decided that I need to seek the help of professional dermatological treatments!

Since I was going to spend money and time on treatments anyway, I wanted to see definite results, so I did some intense searching online. Everyone highly recommended Maypure for its excellent value for money. First off, all treatment prices are transparently fixed, so I have absolutely no worries about being overcharged. Also, there were many reviews saying they provide incredibly meticulous and friendly care at reasonable prices, so I decided to go with this place. Haha. Looking at other people's reviews, I heard that the directors delicately adjust the laser intensity to suit my specific skin concerns, which really gave me a lot of confidence! However, now that I’ve actually looked at the Maypure website to schedule a treatment, there are so many different programs like Pico Toning and Aqua Peel that I’m having trouble deciding how to combine them to start with my skin. Currently, my skin tone is uneven due to deepening melasma and blemishes, and the texture is rough and dry because sebum has accumulated in my pores.

Looking at community posts, it seems like Pico Toning is the most popular for removing blemishes and Aqua Peel for cleansing pores. However, I'm not sure how to plan a treatment for my specific problem areas, so I'd like to ask a few specific questions!

1. If I have concerns like mine regarding pigmentation such as melasma and blemishes, as well as blackheads and excess sebum around the nose, would it be safe for my skin to receive Pico Toning and Aqua Peel as a package on the same day? Or would it be more effective to receive them alternately with a certain interval between treatments?
2. Since this is my first time getting a laser treatment at a dermatology clinic, I'm really scared about how painful it will be. Is Pico Toning usually very stinging or painful? I'm wondering if the intensity is bearable enough for office workers or college students to come in for a quick treatment during their lunch break, even without anesthetic cream.
3. How long does the downtime usually last after the procedure, such as significant redness or peeling of the face? I would like to know if I can resume my daily activities or apply makeup immediately after the procedure, or if the results are noticeable enough to require wearing a mask.
4. I’ve heard that it’s difficult to see dramatic results from just one toning or peeling treatment and that you need to receive them regularly. I’m curious to hear some firsthand advice from experienced Maypure members on how many sessions and at what intervals I typically need to feel my skin tone brighten and blemishes fade!

Since this is my first time trying a laser treatment, I'm excited but also really nervous about potential side effects. If anyone has received treatments at Maypure and seen their complexion brighten up, please share all your tips and information in the comments! Thank you so much for reading this long post, and I look forward to your reply! I hope everyone gets glowing skin at Maypure!
