Hi there,
I'm sorry you had such a bad experience. And to anyone else who has olive skin, I don't care who the doctor is, never, never, never, get laser done on dark spots when you have olive skin. I have yet to find someone who said it worked for them. Yes, it does sound like your spots are hormonal and in addition to some great recommended creams, you must do some work on the inside because the inside is where this is all starting. Having olive skin myself and being all about beauty on the inside, here is a nutritional solution that has been helpful for some people.
Important supplements to right hormone imbalances that cause melasma:
1. MSM 100mg about 3 times a day
2. Vitamin C
3. CoQ10
4. Zinc
5. Probiotics a.k.a Good Bacteria
6. Calcium D-Glucarate
Also, watch the alcohol intake and it's best to eat hormone and antibiotic free poultry and meats.
