Cosmelan Peel
Cosmelan is a professional peel that targets hyperpigmentation caused by melasma, uv-exposure, acne and aging.
The in-salon treatment brings out the pigmentation and breaks down the colour and is followed by a strict skin care regime for a continuous depigmentation process. The whole process will help brighten your skin quickly and also in the long run.
What to Expect
2 in-salon sessions and skin care products will be provided for you.
The first session will be the application of the cosmelan mask which is to be removed by yourself after 8-12 hours (as per therapists instructions).
After removal of the mask, you will need to follow a strict skin care regime to continue the depigmentation process and expect possible redness and skin flaking for the 1-10 days after treatment.
A week after the first session, you will be asked to come in again for a checkup.
