How to Treat Melasma After Fraxel Dual Laser 1927?

fraxal1927
I had fraxel dual laser 1927 to treat sun spots and it gave me melasma. I thought it was hypo-pigmentation but have told that it is melasma. Doctor wants to place me on Revlite laser which he thinks will remove the melasma. Ella Rouge has advised to do Ominlux facials with coffeberry to treat it. Will this get better on its own or am I stuffed? I don't want to do anymore fraxal absolutely not. It made it worse. Instead of little spots I now have two bigger spots. Joined the dots into one dot.
