My skin concerns have reached their peak as faint melasma has recently spread widely on top of the freckles I've had since childhood, almost like a genetic trait. Even when I apply a thick layer of base makeup, it all cakes and becomes patchy and visible by the afternoon, making me extremely self-conscious every time I take a photo. I looked into clinics specializing in pigmentation and heard that Pico Toning, which finely breaks down melanin, is the current trend for complex pigmentation disorders with varying depths like this, so I am thinking of getting a proper consultation. I am worried because I've heard that melasma can actually get darker if mishandled; would managing it with Pico Toning definitely help lighten it safely? How did others typically schedule their Pico Toning sessions, and how long did the effects last?
