Cosmelan procedures: age spots, melasma, skin, rejuvenation, acne, pigmentation, bleach

Repeated sun exposure, and in some cases, exposure to heat as part of a working environment, result in mottling and brown spots on the skin. Dark spots and pigmentation, especially on the face, are one of the greatest aesthetic concerns facing people today. Only by affecting the skin’s melanin (color-producing pigment) formation can a person suffering from brown spots obtain a clearing or blending of the affected skin.

Cosmelan Characteristics

Cosmelan® Depigmentation treatment guarantees the improvement of the anti-aesthetic skin blemishes with a very high safety margin. Cosmelan® Depigmentation treatment’s principal action is the elimination of melanin patches on the face (melasma and chloasma). Cosmelan® Depigmentation treatment involves a very versatile, dynamic process which is easily adapted to the needs of each individual patient. Cosmelan® Depigmentation treatment action mechanism is based on the inhibition of tyrosinase, a basic enzyme in the melanin formation process. Several of the substances present in the Cosmelan® formula act by blocking this enzyme, or even by inverting the metabolic process of the transformation chain.

At the end of the Cosmelan® Depigmentation treatment, the blemishes start to disappear altogether, so that, although the patient may be able to “locate” the place where the spot was, the truth is that the pigmentation will have disappeared and nobody will be able to see it just by looking at it.
