Cosmelan Depigmentation Treatment

In 99% of the cases, the appearance of the blemishes improves by 95%. ONE WEEK after starting the Cosmelan Depigmentation treatment, a noticeable significant improvement of the skin is observed. The reduction of the treated blemish is detected and the appearance of new luminous and rejuvenated skin is present. At the end of the Cosmelan Depigmentation treatment, the blemishes start to disappear altogether, so that, although the patient may be able to “locate” the place where the spot was, the truth is that the pigmentation will have disappeared and nobody will be able to see it just by looking at it.

Cosmelan works by blocking the process that causes hyper pigmentation.
It works for

Melasma
Brown Spots
Blotchy Skin
Hyper pigmentation
Post-inflammatory hyper pigmentation after any damage to the skin like acne

You should see full results after approximately 4 to 5 weeks of your treatment.

Stop all applications especially glycolic acid two weeks before treatment. Do avoid any aesthetic or laser procedures 7 days prior to treatment with Cosmelan. Refrain from waxing or the use of other hair removal methods for 7 days prior to treatment. Use sunscreen regularly before your cosmelan peel appointment. The treatment must not be interrupted under any circumstances, during the entire time prescribed. It is completely forbidden to combine the Cosmelan Depigmentation treatment with other Depigmentation treatments, as the appearance of undesired effects cannot be guaranteed. Treatment control visits are recommended 8 days after treatment, 15 days after, and a follow up visit every month thereafter.

First and second day

During the first two days of the treatment, the skin may turn red. If the skin is very sensitive, the patient may experience an itching feeling. Slight burning and tightening of the skin is also absolutely normal, especially during the first 24 to 48 hours after starting the treatment. To relieve these problems, it is advisable to apply the creams advised.

Redness of the Skin

The reddening that occurs on the face after applying the Cosmelan mask treatment is similar to the effects of day-long exposure to the sun in the snow without protection.

Flaking may occur on all skin types between the second and third day. In this case it is advisable to apply cream advised, repeating this every two hours on the day when the flaking is most intense until it improves. Do not pull on the flakes. Do not rub or scratch the skin. Do not use exfoliants, scrubs or peels. Avoid steam baths, saunas and swimming in a hot spring for 2 weeks following treatment. It is advisable to wait until the initial flaking period is over before starting to apply make-up again.

One week onwards

After one week, the skin appears healthy and luminous and the marks begin to fade.

Cosmelan Maintenance Cream

The second phase of the Cosmelan treatment consists of a home maintenance cream Cosmelan with the intention of securing the Depigmentation by association of agents such as Kojic Acid, Phytic Acid, Vitamin C,Arbutin & Titanium Oxide. We have added a physical agent to block the sun and guarantee that the UV rays do not keep on aggravating unwanted damage to skin, though the sunscreen advised has to be used three times a day.

• There will be visible peeling for 7 days post procedure.While peeling occurs the skin may have
some colour changes which is normal and will resolve soon.
• Avoid sun exposure as much as possible.If you know you will get incidental sun exposure(driving
to and from work, walking from your car to the house etc) we recommend physical avoidance of
the sun in all treated areas with a protective hat and a full spectrum sunblock.
• Do not rub/scrub/pick on your skin.
• Avoid applying makeup while peeling continues.
• You need to avoid sweating, exercising, hot baths, hot showers, sauna, and swimming until the
peeling continues to happen.
• After 4 weeks application you must still continue applying Cosmelan 2 for the next 6-8 months
in a maintenance form.Stop using it 5 days prior to any other procedure and reapply 3 days
after any other procedures.
• The result after Cosmelan 1 is only 20% of the final result.80% of the result comes from home
application of Cosmelan 2 so it is a MUST.
• Donot get any other procedures(such as peels,facials,lasers) done on the treated area for
minimum 4 weeks.
• WE RECOMMEND YOU VISIT THE CLINIC 4 WEEKS POST TREATMENT AND EVERY MONTH POST THAT FOR A
