“Melasma is bothering me,

but I’m afraid that if I carelessly and roughly touch it,

it will get worse, so I can’t do anything...”

Even a small spot on the face can be very noticeable, and in the case of deep melasma, it can be even more so.

So people look into melasma treatment, but even though it is the same melasma, some say it got noticeably better while others say it actually got worse, which makes it hard to start without hesitation.

Melasma must be approached while considering many factors, such as exactly where it is located within the skin and whether there is a vascular issue.

So today, let’s look at the principles and effects of laser toning and find out together why deep-seated melasma has been difficult to treat.

The principles and effects of laser toning

First, let’s take a look at the principles and effects of laser toning, which is widely used for pigment treatment.

Laser toning is a procedure that delivers laser energy to the skin for a short time and removes melanin pigment, which makes the skin look darker, by selectively breaking it into small pieces.

Because the energy acts only on the spot where melanin pigment is present, you do not need to worry about damage to the surrounding skin tissue.

The melanin pigment receives heat from the laser energy and is minutely destroyed, and our body’s immune system recognizes these tiny pigment fragments as foreign substances and expels them.

As this process is repeated, melasma and blemishes gradually fade.

Rather than seeing an immediate improvement after just one session, you can feel a significant effect after receiving it at regular intervals for at least five sessions.

Why deep-seated melasma was difficult to treat

In the case of deeply rooted melasma, there are people who say they did not see good results from treatment. So let’s find out the reason and also look at how it should be handled.

First, melasma can be broadly divided into three types: epidermal, dermal, and mixed.

Epidermal melasma is a form in which pigment accumulates in the outermost layer of the skin, so improvement is relatively easy.

On the other hand, dermal melasma is located in the deeper dermal layer of the skin, so the laser wavelength must reach deeply, which requires a much more careful approach.

Mixed type spans both the epidermis and dermis, and it is the most complex type and common among East Asians.

After receiving melasma treatment, there are often cases where it worsens or leads to hyperpigmentation.

Basically, a toning procedure is one that causes heat-related damage to pigment within the skin.

However, East Asian skin in particular is sensitive to stimulation, so if the laser is applied even slightly too strongly in a way that does not suit the skin, or if sun protection is neglected, hyperpigmentation can easily occur.

And as mentioned earlier, since melasma also comes in different types, if it is not approached properly according to the type, you may not see results.

There are even cases of melasma related to blood vessels, and in such cases, appropriate equipment suited to vascular issues must be used.

Therefore, to effectively treat deep melasma, it is important to begin by comprehensively analyzing the depth and distribution of the melasma, skin type, sensitivity, and any accompanying issues.

Today, while looking at the principles and effects of Jamsil laser toning, we examined why it has been difficult to see good treatment results for deep-seated melasma.

Even for the same melasma, the approach can be completely different depending on the depth or type of the melasma and whether there is a vascular issue, so an accurate diagnosis is very important.

So before the procedure, I hope you receive 충분히 상담을 받아보시고, and please make sure to check whether the practitioner’s medical judgment and analysis using specialized equipment are being carried out carefully, so that you can see good melasma treatment results.
