CASE 3: Before treatment → About 12 weeks later (2025-05-02 → 2025-07-28)

※ Even for the same person, progress can vary depending on skin condition, pigment depth, and UV exposure.

This type often requires both “toning + focal spot control.”

Freckles and dark spots are rarely just one uniform patch.

In many cases, you’ll see a mix of:

a soft “background tone” spread across the face, and
darker, dot-like focal points.

So treatment is usually planned as a combination approach: refine the overall tone first, then adjust the remaining focal spots by carefully controlling intensity—step by step.

Aftercare — you don’t need a long list. Just these.

For about 1–2 weeks, pause harsh exfoliation (scrubs, peeling pads, high-strength AHA/BHA, retinol)

Stay consistent with moisturizing + sun protection (pigmentation is UV-sensitive)

If scabs or peeling occur, do not pick or peel them off

※ After treatment, temporary redness, stinging, dryness, flaking, and swelling may occur. If spot treatment is included, scabbing or temporary darkening (PIH) can also appear. If symptoms are severe, or if blisters, oozing, or persistent/worsening pain occurs, an in-clinic check is recommended.
