Cosmelan is a professional treatment designed to target and reduce hyperpigmentation, such as melasma, sunspots and age spots. It involves a powerful chemical peel and advanced topical regimen for a brighter and even complexion.
How it Works: The Cosmelan treatment begins with the application of Cosmelan 1 peel, which includes active ingredients like azelaic acid, kojic acid and phytic acid. It is left on for a period range of 6 to 12 hours, depending upon the skin type.
After the designated duration, the peel is removed and a customized post-peel skincare regimen is advised to be applied. This consists of a number of topical preparations aimed at additional pigmentation reduction, protection, and optimization of results. Common ingredients include vitamin C and other brightening agents to maintain and optimize the effect achieved with the initial treatment.
Treatment can be repeated after 6 months.
Benefits of Cosmelan:
Effective Pigmentation Reduction: Cosmelan is renowned for its ability to significantly reduce dark spots and hyperpigmentation, offering a more uniform skin tone.
Improves Skin Texture: The treatment promotes exfoliation and the renewal of skin cells, leading to a smoother, more refined skin surface.
Brightens Complexion: By targeting excess melanin, Cosmelan helps to brighten and revitalize the skin, reducing dullness and enhancing radiance.
Minimal Downtime: Some redness and peeling may occur, but downtime is usually minimal compared to more invasive treatments. Peeling may take 7-10 Days Long-Lasting Results: With proper post-treatment care and maintenance, results can be long-lasting, providing sustained improvements in pigmentation and skin appearance.
Aftercare: Post-treatment, a strict skincare regimen, including sun protection, is essential to ensure optimal results and prevent recurrence of pigmentation issues. Clients should also avoid excessive sun exposure and harsh skincare products to support skin healing and maintenance.
