The worldwide benchmark depigmentation method — a medical approach to managing pigmentation and melasma, tailored to your skin
Pigmentation is one of the most common and often one of the most challenging skin concerns to manage. Whether caused by sun exposure, hormones, inflammation or ageing, excess pigment can leave the complexion looking uneven and difficult to treat with skincare alone.

cosmelan® is the worldwide benchmark depigmentation method that acts on skin spots in a visible and integral manner. It’s designed to regulate the formation of new melanin, essential to provide short and long term results. Unlike treatments that focus only on existing discolouration, the cosmelan® method combines an intensive in-clinic treatment with a carefully prescribed home-care program to support longer-term management of pigmentation concerns.

Understanding the cosmelan® Method
One of the reasons cosmelan® is recognised internationally is that it is more than a single treatment. The protocol combines a skin prep peel the week prior to your cosmelan® treatment, followed by an intensive in-clinic mask application, with an essential home-care program that continues over several months.
This combination aims to improve the appearance of existing pigmentation while supporting the ongoing management of uneven pigment production. Consistency with the prescribed home-care routine and daily sun protection are important parts of the treatment process and contribute to maintaining results over time.

Frequently Asked Questions About cosmelan®
What skin concerns can cosmelan® treat?
cosmelan® is commonly used as part of the management of melasma, sun-induced pigmentation, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, age spots and uneven skin tone. Your clinician will determine whether it is appropriate for your individual skin concerns.
Is cosmelan® suitable for melasma?
Yes. cosmelan® is widely used as part of the professional management of melasma. As melasma is a chronic condition with multiple triggers, ongoing maintenance and sun protection remain important components of long-term management. Results for melasma are significant.
How long does the treatment take?
The treatment begins with a consultation, a prep peel one week prior to treatment, followed by in-clinic application of the cosmelan® mask, which remains on the skin for a prescribed period before being removed at home. This is followed by a structured home-care program over several months, with review appointments as recommended by your clinician.
Will my skin peel after cosmelan®?
Many patients experience redness, dryness and varying degrees of peeling during the early stages of treatment. These responses vary between individuals and are discussed during your consultation, along with aftercare instructions to support skin recovery.
Redness and dryness subsides with the home care products which are included in the treatment cost.
Is one treatment enough?
The in-clinic application is only one part of the cosmelan® method. The prescribed home-care products and ongoing sun protection play an important role in supporting treatment outcomes and helping to manage future pigmentation concerns.
I’m breastfeeding or pregnant, can I still have cosmelan®?
The system contains high-strength active ingredients (including azelaic and kojic acids) and is strictly not safe for anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding.
