Cosmelan utilizes a synergistic blend of melanin-suppressing actives, antioxidants, and resurfacing agents that both lift existing pigment and prevent new discoloration from forming.
It operates on two levels:
Depigmentation: breaks down visible pigmentation on the surface.
Regulation: suppresses melanin synthesis in the melanocyte to stop pigment at the source.
-
Together, these actives deliver a comprehensive resurfacing and brightening effect without compromising skin health.
Azelaic Acid – brightens and inhibits tyrosinase to control melanin formation.
Kojic Acid – lightens hyperpigmented areas while providing antioxidant protection.
Phytic Acid – exfoliates and chelates metals to enhance cellular turnover.
Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) – promotes collagen synthesis and luminosity.
Arbutin & Niacinamide – further regulate pigment and strengthen barrier function.
-
The Cosmelan protocol is a two-phase treatment:
In-Clinic Application – Your provider applies the Cosmelan 1 mask, which remains on the skin for 8–12 hours, then removed at home.
Home Care Phase – Over the next several weeks, you’ll use a Cosmelan maintenance system to continue regulating pigment production and support barrier repair.
-
Visible peeling and dryness typically occur in the first 3–5 days, with progressive brightening and evenness developing over 4–6 weeks.
Expect a significant reduction in pigment density and improved overall luminosity after a single treatment.
For ongoing melasma management, annual maintenance treatments and consistent sun protection are recommended.
Know Before You Go: Cosmelan Peel
The Cosmelan Peel is a medical-grade skin correction system designed to reduce hyperpigmentation, melasma, and uneven skin tone.
Because it’s a powerful enzymatic and tyrosinase-inhibiting treatment, proper preparation and aftercare are essential for safe, radiant results.
-
Discontinue active ingredients 5–7 days prior.
Pause use of retinoids, exfoliating acids, vitamin C, and benzoyl peroxide to minimize irritation.Avoid sun exposure.
Arrive with no recent tan or sunburn. UV exposure increases risk of post-peel inflammation.No waxing, laser, or exfoliating procedures.

Drink plenty of water and use a gentle, hydrating moisturizer in the days leading up to your appointment.
