I'm really curious about whether melanin treatment for achieving fairer skin is actually safe. Could you tell me how long the process usually takes and what the cost might be?

These is a vague terminology and makes no sense. Kindly do not fall into the hands of such therapists. I think no Dermatologist will recommend you something like this. Basically there are depigmentation treatment protocols which modify melanocytes functioning in an orchestrated manner that results in a healthier and better skin tone, This could be a chemical peel, rejuvenation skin lasers or mesotherapy and PRP therapy.
