    High hopes gone

    Using 5 weeks no change in marks on my skin. So disappointed. I have the entire treatment set. I had high hopes

    Hello Keisha! Thank you for sharing your experience after five weeks of using the Mela B3 routine; we understand how disappointing it can be to not see the transformation you were expecting, especially when using the complete set. Addressing persistent dark spots is a gradual process, as the formula’s advanced ingredients—including Melasyl™ and Niacinamide—work with your skin’s natural renewal cycle to refine the appearance of hyperpigmentation from within. A vital tip for seeing the best results with any brightening regimen is to be absolutely consistent with broad-spectrum sun protection every single day, as even a small amount of UV exposure can cause dark spots to darken further and stall your progress. We encourage you to continue with the full treatment while ensuring your skin is strictly protected from the sun, as most users begin to see more significant and visible improvements in skin tone and clarity after two to three months of dedicated, daily use.

    Too strong of a smell

    I have only been using the product for a few days now, but the scent is overpowering. It smells like floral laundry detergent. Sadly I won’t be able to stick with this one to even see if it works.

    Hello MelC! Thank you for sharing your initial impressions with us; we understand that the sensory experience of a product is a very important part of a daily routine. We include a fresh, floral scent in the Mela B3 Serum to provide a premium and clinical feel during application, though we realize that fragrance sensitivity can vary greatly from person to person. This formula is a highly advanced treatment utilizing our proprietary Melasyl™ and 10% Niacinamide to target persistent dark spots and uneven skin tone, which typically yields the most significant results with several weeks of consistent use. A helpful tip if you find a scent to be a bit strong is to apply the serum to slightly damp skin and follow immediately with a fragrance-free moisturizer; this can help "buffer" the initial aroma and help it dissipate more quickly while still allowing the powerful active ingredients to work on refining your complexion.

    No improvement on my hand after 4 months

    I used the Mela B3 serum on one-half of one hand, twice a day, for more than 4 months. Toward the end, I started using it 3 times a day. There was no reduction in the color or size field of any spot or, if there was any improvement, it was so slight as to not be worth the time effort or money. I tried this product because it was offered as beneficial for hands in addition to faces.

    Doesn’t works on a sensitive skin.

    Im so sad this didn’t work for me. My skin got irritated with little bumps and I bought it because supposedly works with sensitive skin. I need an exchange for a different product or a refund, this product is expensive. Please advise.

    High disappointed

    I am 21 days into using this product. Not much is needed but the product is almost gone. What I noticed is that ya'll deliberately us a thick purple bottle so you can't see the amount in the bottle. This is deceitful. This morning I placed the bottle to the natural sun light but couldnt see anything. When I turned the bottle upside down I was then able to see that the bottle is almost empty.

    Hello KLW89! We appreciate you sharing your experience after three weeks of use, as your feedback is essential to our commitment to quality. The choice of an opaque, colored bottle is a deliberate scientific decision intended to protect the integrity of the active ingredients within, particularly Melasyl™ and Niacinamide, which can be sensitive to light exposure. By shielding the serum from UV rays and external light, we ensure the formula remains stable and as effective as possible for your skin from the first application to the last. Regarding the longevity of your serum, a helpful tip for such a concentrated formula is to use only three to four drops for the entire face and neck. This specific amount is designed to provide full coverage and optimal results while ensuring the bottle lasts for the intended duration of a typical treatment cycle.

    So far so good

    A lot of mixed reviews but I’m giving this a 5 star even though I just started it. But I’m not having any burning or stinging. The fragrance isn’t bothering my skin either. Smells bad but calms down after a bit. I only have some post acne marks I wanna get rid of I’ve had for ever but I can’t use vitamin c it irritates me, and I use niacinamide from the ordinary but that one is so strong and doesn’t lighten spots it just helps with an acne flare up. So I personally don’t like the ordinary. I decided to try this and so far so good. I want my skin to look more brighter and even toned that’s all I’m looking for so if anything changes I’ll update but so far so good:)

    As effective as prescription

    I purchased this for my 62 year old husband who experienced sunspots for the first time in his life. We were both astonished in the fading of discoloration in 3-4 weeks, not months! He had tried several other products in the past that promised benefits and didn’t deliver. I believe LaRoche is using a new patented ingredient in this. Excellent!!

    Another skincare let down…Ineffective

    Not a fan of the smell, it did not improve my dark spots at all. For the price, I expected visible results or at least some level of improvement. If you are dealing with real hyperpigmentation or stubborn marks, this is not worth your money. This felt like an expensive moisturizer with zero brightening or fading. Definitely not worth it.

    Hello Tyh_! We are sorry to hear that the Mela B3 Dark Spot Serum did not meet your expectations, particularly regarding the scent and the results on your hyperpigmentation. While we carefully select fragrances for our formulas, we understand that scent is a very personal preference. When addressing stubborn dark spots and deep-seated marks, it is important to note that visible improvements typically require consistent, daily application over a period of at least eight to twelve weeks to coincide with the skin's natural regeneration process. To maximize the efficacy of the Melasyl™ and Niacinamide in the formula, we highly recommend pairing the serum with a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every single morning, as even minimal UV exposure can trigger melanin production and counteract the brightening progress you are looking for. We appreciate your honest feedback on the value and experience of this treatment, as it helps us in our commitment to developing effective dermatological solutions for all skin concerns.
