Treatments such as chemical peels, lasers, IPL for pigment are only as good as +
the person administering them. It is what it is. It's a cooking analogy, we all can buy the same flour, sugar and whatnot and use the same cookbooks s

Both are my main concern. Hyperpigmentation and melasma are different +

I love hydrafacials. I bought a package. I went in the week of Christmas because my skin was
feeling dryish and dehydrated, and no amount of water or topical moisturizers/oils helped. I went to Hawaii in November, and I think the constant re-a
