Which is a better treatment for melasma: microneedling or a chemical peel?

Asked By:forevercurious in New York, NY

I have light melasma on my forehead and hyperpigmentation on my cheeks. Is it better to have a chemical peel or microneedling? I have very sensitive pale skin and want to make sure the treatment I choose doesn’t cause even more hyperpigmentation.
