I had malasma and hyperpigmentation due to pregnancy-- and was really embarassed. I could not leave the house without a ton of make-up, and in south Florida, that's not too comfortable! A friend of mine had it done and sent me to the same skin care clinic. The procedure was slightly painful, but after a long labor and birth, it was comparitively not so bad. My face was tender for a day. After a few days, my skin turned dark and looked "dirty". Then is starts to peel. Within a week to 10 days, I had a new, clear, plump beautiful face. The only downer, is you are no longer allowed sun-exposure regardless of how incidental or minor for the rest of your life! In Florida, not such a realistic goal no matter how much sunscreen you put on! Great procedure if you can afford infinite upkeep or are just curious. Some spots have resurfaced, but I can't realistically keep going every 3-4 months, the recommended upkeep. Also, don't plan on being available to the public for at least a week from treatment! Plan any events accordingly!
