CO2 laser for Asian skin with melasma?
Hi, I was diagnosed as having a melasma by a dermatologist. He suggested for me to have a CO2 laser. Would this work on my type of skin? I am of an oriental background. (brown skin). Most of the photos that was shown to me with melasma in the clinic was of Western (white skin) background. I just want your input on this please. The melasma is on my cheeks area.
