Pros: none

Cons: expensive.
some immediate results but several months later my melasma was back and actually darker. The process is terrible and took 13 days. It is uncomfortable and very itchy. I do not recommend. I missed two weeks of work because the peeling was so intense. Physicians should share more information on success rate by skin type.

Thank you for sharing your experience with the community.  The two week healing process sounds intense.

Like you, I thought by the looks of things after one week post that the patches on my skin looked lighter. However, I am now thinking that my mustache (close to the corners of my mouth) look darker.

How is your Melasma now? Still feel it's darker?
