Cosmelan FAQ's
How long does it take to see results? The most meaningful change occurs a few weeks after the application of the mask in the office and starting the home care. The texture of the skin improves, expression lines and dark spots are visibly reduced, but the process is not over as it includes not only a corrective phase but also a regulatory phase, meaning that results can be seen in the first weeks but are not final, so the continuous application is needed to ensure progressive and accumulative effect.
Has there been a significant change in the new formula? The formula has evolved integrating innovative active ingredients, increasing the scope of patients now targeting aging, and simplifying home care protocol. However, the mainstructure of the product remains the same.
What happens if i don't follow the home care regimen? If you do not follow the home regimen, you are interrupting the treatment and will therefore not obtain the expected results. Not applying cosmelan 2 depigmenting cream with regulating action involves not regulating the melanocyte and, therefore, a persistent uncontrolled, excessive production of melanin. The spot will reappear as the skin layers are renewed, as melanin migrates to the surface making the spot increasingly evident. Not using photoprotection, melan 130 pigment control, involves a very high risk that the spot returns, as skin is more sensitive and receptive to external aggressions during the treatment.
Does the new formula contain hydroquinone? No. The exclusive combination of ingredients and the recently incorporated patented actives are enough to effectively manage hyperpigmentation.
Cosmelan® peel: is Cosmelan® a peel? Although often referred to as cosmelan® peel, the cosmelan® treatment goes beyond a peel. Unlike peels, which act on the surface of the problem, cosmelan® gets to the root of the problem. It consists in a treatment that visibly removes and attenuates pigmentation spots (like a peel) while exerting a regulating action that corrects the overproduction of pigmentation and prevents the spots from reappearing.
Does the treatment make me unable to fulfill my daily life activities? As it is not an invasive treatment, it does not make you unable to fulfil your activities of daily living normally. Caution must be exerted when fulfilling some type of activities during the first days, a skin adaptation period after the cabin treatment. For instance, it is advisable to avoid bathing in swimming pools, prolonged sun exposure and activities that involve excessive sweating.
Can the spots return after the end of treatment? After an adequate professional treatment, excess pigmentation can be removed visibly. However, it is a dynamic process, where the imbalance forming them can cause their recurrence. Therefore, even if the spots are not seen, it is essential to apply a daily regulatory depigmentation treatment and photoprotection throughout the year to prevent repigmentation.
How long does the treatment take? The mesoestetic® Cosmelan consists of an in-office protocol and a home routine, both of which are necessary to achieve the best results possible in terms of antiaging and depigmentation. The treatment's total duration is about 2-6 months depending on degree of issues.
What is the main difference between cosmelan® and dermamelan®? Both are depigmentation treatments that produce excellent results, but cosmelan® is an aesthetic treatment, whereas dermamelan® is a new generation treatment that, thanks to the development of an unedited formula, has two patents that allow for a more comprehensive and effective action when treating the most severe and resistant spots. This innovation has led to a more efficient and convenient protocol with results after 4 months of treatment. The process is less aggressive than the Cosmelan process.
