Hi doctor,
What is the best option for skin discoloration? I have had a few laser treatments, but it does not seem to be working. I am not sure if it is sun damage or melasma, but it definitely got much worse after having a baby last year. I had a total skin rejuvenation laser treatment three times. It seems to be helping with my fine lines, but it has not touched the skin discoloration. I am getting frustrated and running out of money. Please help.
