Questions, answered plainly
What women ask us most.
What is the difference between Brightening Laser and Melasma Laser?
Both protocols use a Q-switched laser platform but with different settings. The Brightening Laser is gentler and aimed at general dullness, sun damage and uneven tone. The Melasma Laser uses a low-fluence approach designed for stubborn melasma, which behaves differently from ordinary pigmentation. Our doctor will assess your skin and recommend which protocol is appropriate.
Can melasma be cured?
Melasma is a chronic condition that tends to come and go, and it is not considered curable. Laser sessions, combined with strict daily sun protection and topical care prescribed by your doctor, may help reduce how visible it is over time. Maintenance is usually part of long-term management.
Is the treatment painful?
Most patients describe a mild tingling or warm rubber-band sensation during the laser pulses. Topical numbing is usually not needed for these protocols, but please raise any sensitivity concerns at consultation.
How many sessions will I need?
A typical course is 4 to 8 sessions, scheduled every 2 to 4 weeks. Melasma cases often need a longer course and ongoing maintenance. Your doctor will set a plan after assessing your skin.
Are there risks of the pigment becoming worse?
Pigmentation lasers carry a known risk of paradoxical darkening or rebound, particularly in melasma. Settings, frequency and patient selection matter, which is why we insist on a medical assessment before any laser session and on strict sun protection between sessions.
Can I do this if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?
Pigmentation laser treatments are generally not offered during pregnancy or breastfeeding, partly because hormonal changes during this period can drive melasma in unpredictable ways. Please let our team know your status during consultation.
