To What Extent Can Micro Laser Peel Correct the Sun Damage "Mask" (Melasma) on my Face? (photo)
I'm 36 years old Hispanic,I have dark spot in my cheeks & forehead due to sun damage/hormonal imbalance (malesma). I've tried microdermoabration for a year combining w/5 photofacials and that helped to make it look better but I could never get rid of the dark spots.

I'm tired of spending money and time, is micro laser peel the answer to my problems?
