Cosmelan® Treatment

With the Cosmelan® peel we treat all types of skin blemishes of melanin synthesis, that is, spots originating due to melanin overproduction triggered by several factors (hormonal, genetic, post-acne, inflammatory hyperpigmentation, severe cases of pigmentation etc.) that worsen due to sun damage.

Therefore, this peel treatment is effective to treat spots such as: melasma, new pigmentation, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentations (PIH), pigmented lesions, pigmentation concerns, solar, senile lentigo and freckles.

Cosmelan® can be used at any time of the year for any skin type, to reduce unwanted pigmentation, though it is advisable to do it at times when the sun is not so intense, such as the winter and autumn. I

n case you live in a hot region or apply the treatment in the summer, you must take greater care and use a very high sunscreen to avoid blood flushing and extreme peeling, such as melan 130 pigment control and avoid completely very intense and prolonged sun exposure.

The Cosmelan® method consists of four phases which are necessary to achieve the target result.

The deeper layers of your skin contains melanocyte, a cell where melanin is produced. Post treatment your melanocyte is still uncontrolled and continues to produce a thick layer of excessive pigmentation (melanin).

Your Cosmelan® homecare is a regular maintenance program that contains a tyrosinase inhibitor to re-educate the melanocyte and control melanin overproduction, which is important so that the cell returns to a normal active state to manage recurrence of skin pigmentation.

The treatment involves applying a thick layer of a specially formulated mask to the skin, which contains a combination of active ingredients such as kojic acid, phytic acid, and azelaic acid.

These ingredients work together to exfoliate the skin, break up hyperpigmentation, and help to reduce the appearance of dark spots and other forms of skin discolouration.

During this process, the mask helps to remove dead skin cells and promote the growth of new, healthy skin cells.
