Your Cosmelan Depigmenting Peel

Treatment at a Glance

The Cosmelan Depigmenting Peel uses advanced technology to inhibit melanin production, targeting hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone.

This treatment is suitable for most skin types and involves a two-step process: an in-clinic application followed by a detailed home care regimen.

This is an intensive treatment.

Treatment Time

35 minutes for in-clinic peel application with peel left applied for 8-12hours.

Why This Treatment Works

The Cosmelan Depigmenting Peel works by inhibiting melanin production, the pigment responsible for skin discoloration.

This treatment targets hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone, promoting a more even and radiant complexion.

The process involves an in-clinic peel application and a comprehensive home care regimen, ensuring long-lasting results and enhanced overall skin health.

Your Treatment Experience

After a comprehensive skin consultation and analysis to confirm your suitability for this intensive peel, your Skin Therapist will thoroughly cleanse your skin in preparation for the Cosmelan Depigmenting Peel.

The peel will be applied and left on your skin for 8-12 hours.

Your therapist will advise you on the precise removal time.

Following this, we will discuss the strict home care routine to develop results and ensure your skin remains well-supported throughout the depigmenting process.

Is This Right for You

The Cosmelan Depigmenting Peel is suitable for individuals concerned with melasma, sun damage, and pigmentation.

This is an intensive peel that requires strict observance to the home care routine and avoidance of sun exposure.

It is not recommended for those currently using or who have used Roaccutane within the last 12-18 months, or for those with impaired barrier function (e.g., dermatitis, psoriasis, eczema, or rosacea).

Your skin therapist will help you determine if this treatment is right for your skin’s specific needs.

Social Downtime

Due to the intensity of this peel, we recommend keeping your schedule light for 1-3 days post-treatment.

You may prefer to work from home during this period.

In the first week, your skin will shed significantly, with ongoing flaking for up to three weeks.

Makeup can be worn, but your skin may appear dry and flaky.

What is Social Downtime?

Downtime is a term that refers to the time needed to recover from a procedure.

Our treatments have no downtime but may involve some social downtime. Social downtime does not require making any major changes to your day-to-day activities, however you may prefer to avoid social settings during this time for cosmetic reasons (such as redness or swelling). 

What can you expect?

Immediate Skin Changes

Following the Cosmelan Depigmenting Peel, your skin will undergo a transformative process to reveal a more even and radiant complexion.

Initially, expect sensitivity and redness, similar to a mild sunburn, as the peel exfoliates the top layers of your skin.

Over the next few days, flaking and peeling will occur, shedding damaged and pigmented cells.

This phase may be accompanied by tightness and dryness, but as your skin heals, you will gradually see a smoother, more uniform texture and reduced pigmentation.

Long-Term Improvements

The long-term results of the Cosmelan Depigmenting Peel are impressive, offering significant improvements in skin tone and texture.

Clients typically experience a substantial reduction in hyperpigmentation, including melasma, dark spots, and other forms of discoloration.

The treatment also helps prevent new spots from forming, leading to a more even complexion.

Additionally, it stimulates collagen production, enhancing skin elasticity and reducing fine lines and wrinkles.

With consistent post-treatment care, the benefits of the Cosmelan Peel can be long-lasting.

What to Do Before Your Treatment

Is your skin ready? Not everyone's skin is ready for advanced treatments such as this. Your therapist may recommend prior treatments to build your skins' barrier - Generally this means even better results!

Avoid Exfoliating Products: Stop using exfoliating products, including scrubs, retinoids/Vitamin A, and glycolic acid, at least 5 days before the Treatment to avoid irritation

Avoid Strenuous Exercise: In the 4-6 hours prior to your treatment.

Drink Water: Ensure you are drinking plenty of water to maintain skin hydration from the inside.

Avoid Sun Exposure: Minimise sun exposure and avoid tanning beds for at least a week before the treatment.

Stop Waxing and Hair Removal: Avoid waxing, threading, or using depilatory creams on the treatment area at least a week before the treatment.

Caring for Your Skin Post-Treatment

Strict Homecare Regimen:

Use Only Provided Products: Adhere strictly to the products included in your homecare pack to ensure optimal results and avoid irritation.

Sun Protection: Apply the sunscreen included in your homecare pack and avoid direct sun exposure.

First Few Days:

Avoid Makeup: Refrain from using makeup for at least 24 hours post-treatment to allow your skin to breathe and heal

Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to help your skin stay hydrated from the inside out.

Avoid Strenuous Exercise: Refrain from intense physical activities for 2-3 days post-treatment to prevent excessive sweating and irritation.

Keep Your Schedule Light: Plan to have a lighter schedule for 1-3 days after your peel, as your skin will be more sensitive and might appear red and flaky.

By following these steps and the detailed instructions provided by your skin therapist, you can maximise the benefits of your Cosmelan Depigmenting Peel and achieve a radiant, even complexion.

Duration of Results

The results from the Cosmelan Depigmenting Peel can last several months to a year, depending on individual skin types and most importantly - adherence to the post-treatment care.

Proper skincare maintenance, including high-SPF sunscreen, moisturiser, and follow-up treatments, can extend the benefits beyond a year.

Regular skin treatments and diligent sun protection are crucial for maintaining improved skin tone and preventing the recurrence of pigmentation.

Maintenance can involve using only the at-home peeling product or completing the full Cosmelan peel treatment to maximise results.

Your therapist will guide you to the best option for your skin.
