Melasma can arise from multiple interacting factors such as ultraviolet exposure, hormones, and cutaneous inflammation. A single laser modality may have limited effect and in some cases may irritate skin, so at Jelly Dermatology we recommend a precise diagnosis followed by a combined, stepwise treatment plan.

Depending on skin type and lesion depth, scarring or pigmentation changes can occur. We aim to minimize these risks by using conservative depths and meticulous technique tailored to the lesion characteristics.

Some cases can be resolved in one session; however, based on size, depth, and skin condition, 2–3 or more sessions may be appropriate. Rather than attempting aggressive one-time removal, we plan safe intervals and energy settings to help reduce tissue injury and the chance of scarring.

Many patients benefit from approximately 3–10 treatment sessions. When pigment is deeper or widely distributed, a gradual approach that monitors skin response is generally safer and more consistent. We provide thorough consultation beforehand and help plan a realistic, manageable schedule.
