What it actually does
Melasma is stubborn, hormone-driven and easily made worse by heat and aggressive lasering. So this is a deliberately gentle, layered program — the aim is to calm the pigment and even the tone with minimal provocation, rather than force a fast result that rebounds darker.
The exact approach is customised to your skin, because melasma behaves differently from person to person and from sun-damage pigmentation.
What to expect
Steady improvement over weeks and months, not days. We will be honest that melasma is managed rather than cured — it can return with sun, heat and hormones, and holding a result takes maintenance and diligent SPF.
The part that does the work
Daily SPF 50 and sun avoidance are not aftercare here — they are the treatment. Without them, any in-clinic work is undone. We would rather set that expectation up front than watch a good result fade.
