Who Is a Candidate for Cosmelan Treatments?
The ideal candidate for Cosmelan treatments is any individual seeking to correct skin concerns related to hyperpigmentation in a non-invasive and effective way. This approach to fading hyperpigmentation is safe for use on light and dark skin tones. This treatment can address hyperpigmentation caused by genetics, sun exposure, hormonal changes, aging, and photosensitizing medication. Types of hyperpigmentation that Cosmelan treatments can help include:
- Melasma
- Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
- Sunspots
- Acne scars
- Freckles
Cosmelan Treatment Procedure
Cosmelan treatment is done in the form of a mask that is applied to the face and left for 6-10 hours. The amount of time that the mask is left on the face will depend on your specific skin conditions and the severity of each. Once it is time to remove the mask, you will do so at home with lukewarm water. You must never wear the mask for longer than you are instructed to. The next step is also done at home by applying a second product called melan recovery.
Post-Op Care
The application of Cosmelan and melan recovery is an at-home treatment that continues over the course of several months. Dr. Yco will provide you with specific instructions regarding the steps of application and how they will change throughout the course of your treatments. It is important to remain consistent with Cosmelan treatments in order to ensure the most optimal results.
