Probably: Photofacial is an effective therapy for reducing hyperpigmentation. However, melasma can sometime be stubborn and resilient to treatment.

Melasma control: Depending on your skin type and the distribution of your melasma, photofacials may be beneficial to help reduce the visible pigmentation. Melasma can be very challenging to treat and maintenance therapy for pigment control, including daily broad spectrum sunscreen use.
