COSMELAN PEELS
What are Cosmelan peels?
Cosmelan is the world’s leading professional depigmenting method. It has an intensive corrective action on skin hyperpigmentation. A Cosmelan peel simultaneously regulates the overproduction of melanin in the melanocytes, while inhibiting and controlling the appearance of new dark spots. It has a dual corrective and controlling action, achieving short- and long-term results by keeping hyperpigmentation under control. This world leading hyperpigmentation treatment is suitable for all skin types and consists of a salon stage and a seven-month home care routine.

What does the 3-month hyperpigmentation treatment involve?
-
For best results, use skincare with Vitamin A and C a month prior to treatment. We may also advise a peel a week prior, depending on your skin sensitivity.
-
The Cosmelan mask will be applied in-clinic and you will wash it off later at home, after approximately eight hours.
-
You may wish to take antihistamine to reduce itching. Once your skin has settled, you will start using the pH- balanced skin care products provided, instead of your usual skincare regime. Using this homecare daily is essential to long term pigment reduction. After 3 months, we advise switching to a skincare regime with Vitamin A, C and a pigment inhibitor for the next four months.
-
In the first 12 to 48 hours after your hyperpigmentation treatment, you may experience some swelling and redness of the treated area. Very rarely does this last longer than 48 hours.
