So I am 9 days since the treatment! I am loving the results! My melasma isn't completely gone but it is significantly lighter/or gone. They had told me I was one of her most "challenging" clients in terms of pigment- so anything was better than what I had before! I highly recommend it!! ????????

You are lucky to get such great results from what sounds like a very serious peel procedure. I had melanoma for most of my life...finally in my 50's I decided to do something about it and had fraxel. After 4 sessions of fraxel it pretty much took all the melasma away. Also, I now take a product known as Heliocare- which is Polypodium Leucotomos which is supposed to act as SUNSCREEN FROM THE INSIDE OUT...because as we know the sun is very damaging to our face...I believe this has helped to keep the melasma away.

I'm pretty sure you don't mean that you had "melanoma most of your life" but rather melasma. Melanoma would be deadly if you 'had it most of your life'.

I dont understand why you rated it as 'not sure" if it was worth it, if you're so pleased and your results are so amazing...

Day 4

Today is day 4 of the halo treatment. I can definitely see some results already! Where my lighter melasma was is now gone, and my darker spots have faded significantly! I still have some peeling that could come off but I was informed to not peel. It's been hard to not want to pick, but I'm not going to compromise anything! I also put a tiny by of make up on today for the first time since the treatment. That makes me feel good. Skin is turning more link instead of a bright red. I cannot wait to see what a week time will do, and also 6 weeks from now!

Looking great!

That's so exciting!!! I'm really curious what the long term results of this will be- looking great so far! I too have melasma and I really hope to find something that works. The things I've tried all seem to make it worse so far so I've been afraid!

Still loving the results I'm seeing! My melasma is breaking up, it almost looks like little tiny brown dots everywhere, which were once patches. That is the melasma and sun damage breaking apart so it can continue making its way to the surface, and eventually flake off. My skin is noticibly tighter (which I love). My skin definitely feels like sand paper, which they said it would. They told me not to exfoliate or pick it off, just let it do its thing. She also said I will be itchy, k have yet to experience that. I can tell I will be itchy, but as of today at lunchtime, I'm not itchy. All in all, loving this so far! Can't wait to see the end result of just one halo treatment!
