What is Cosmelan® ?
Cosmelan® is an
intensive, yet non-invasive treatment created
specifically for the correction of skin
discoloration, melasma and aging skin. Melanin is
the pigment component of the skin which gives our
skin its color. Melanin is determined by genetics,
however the amount and density of our melanin can be
affected adversely by factors such as repeated sun
exposure, aging and hormonal changes.
Cosmelan®
works by resurfacing discolored skin in order to
expose clear, unmarked skin and helps to prevent new
excess pigmentation from forming.
Cosmelan®
is safe and highly effective for all skin types and
tones.

appearance of your skin. In 99% of cases the
appearance of imperfections caused by pigmentation
were improved by 95%.
How doesCosmelan® work?
The
Cosmelan®
Depigmentation process is based on the inhibition of
tyrosinase, a basic enzyme produced when melanin
forms in our skin. Several of the substances
contained in
Cosmelan®
work to
block this enzyme by inverting the metabolic process
of the transformation chain.
Cosmelan®
Depigmentation Treatment starts with a highly active
and concentrated mask that is applied in office at
the clinic. This mask is worn home and allowed to
remain on the skin for a predetermined length of
time depending on your skin type and pigmentation
problem. The mask will work to lightly peel discolored skin away, revealing unmarked and
undamaged skin. The mask is then followed by the
Cosmelan® home care program which will work to
re-hydrate your skin and continue the benefits of
the in office treatment mask.
