What is Cosmelan?
Cosmelan is a in-clinic depigmentation treatment that acts as an enzyme peel to reduce and inhibit the production of melanin (brown discolouration). Its dual action approach to treating dermal pigmentation both corrects blemishes and regulates melanin production. It consists of two different types of product applications: A mask applied in-clinic and a cream applied at home. It is effective at combating hyper-pigmentation, melasma, (pregnanct mask), acne scarring, and other discolouration of the skin.
The Physiology Behind Cosmelan
Cosmelan works by inhibiting melanin production. Melanin is responsible for the dark pigmentation seen on the skin. The body produces it as a response to UV exposure, but hormones, ageing, and acne may also trigger it. By inhibiting a specific type of enzyme (tyrosinase) that is directly involved in the production of melanin, Cosmelan can reduce melanin production and the discolouration it causes in the skin.
The two-phase intensive treatment program firstly involves the application of a highly potent de-pigmenting mask. This is applied at the clinic and it is not washed off for up to 8-10 hours following application (dependent on skin type). The second treatment phase is at-home maintenance creams that should be applied twice daily to enhance the effects of the mask.
Two to three days after the treatment is applied, the skin will begin to flake and peel. For these first few days, the face may feel tight, itchy and be slightly red.
The results of the treatment become evident by about 10-14 days with visibly clearer & brighter skin. Ongoing improvement in the skin can be seen over the next few months.
As long as maintenance skin care is continued, the results from a Cosmelan Peel can last for years or be permanent.
Cosmelan Common Questions
What is the Dermamelan® method and how does it work?
Dermamelan is the medical depigmenting method that efficiently and progressively eliminates brown spots by acting on the accumulation of pigment in the skin and on the root of the problem, providing a comprehensive and long-lasting outcome. The treatment consists of a professional treatment mask and home treatment that lasts 4 months.
What types of pigmentation can Dermamelan® treat?
Dermamelan is designed to address various types of hyperpigmentation, including the following:
- Melasma or Chloasma (also known as the “mask of pregnancy”)
- Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation
- Sun Spots or Solar Lentigines
- Freckles
How is Dermamelan different from Cosmelan?
Both Dermamelan and Cosmelan are effective depigmentation treatments, but there are key differences between them.
Cosmelan is a milder aesthetic treatment and is suitable for less severe pigmentation. Dermamelan is a next-generation medical-grade depigmentation method. It is significantly stronger than Cosmelan, and therefore must only be used under a supervision and monitoring.
Dermamelan’s groundbreaking formula allows for a more comprehensive and effective action when treating deeper and more stubborn pigmentation. This patented innovation can produce results after 6 months of treatment, making Dermamelan a more efficient and convenient protocol than Cosmelan.
