Lasers and peels address the surface pigment. But the pigment-producing cells sitting deeper in the skin are hormonally driven and heat-sensitive…and they don’t care that you just had IPL. Not all laser is bad for melasma, but most times it doesn't go as planned! #melasma #darkspots #laser #chemicalpeel #dermatologist
