🔬 MELASMA IS NOT DETERMINED BY HOW LONG IT HAS BEEN PRESENT Treatment speed and effectiveness are not solely based on whether melasma is new or long-standing, but rather on the type of melasma and the depth of pigment within the skin. 👉 Specifically: • Epidermal Melasma Pigment is located superficially → responds faster to treatment • Dermal Melasma Pigment is deposited deeper in the skin → requires more time and advanced protocols • Mixed Melasma Combination of multiple pigment depths → requires a customized, multi-modal approach ⚠️ Therefore: A “new” case of melasma can still be difficult to treat if it is deep (dermal), while a “long-standing” case may respond faster if the pigment is more superficial. ✨ At LA’BELLA BEAUTE SG We do not base treatment on duration alone. We focus on accurate diagnosis of pigment depth, followed by a personalized treatment protocol to optimize results and reduce treatment time. 📲WhatsApp: 86853536 📍Location: 51A haji lane S189244 #melasma #acne #scars #laser #microneedling
