You will be instructed as to when to begin your maintenance cream (Cosmelan 2) which will be used daily to keep your skin smooth and clear and maintain the lightening achieved with the Cosmelan 1.

Note: 

• You should not use other skin lightening products at any time while you are on the Cosmelan program.
• Patients who use glycolic acid products (or any creams that can cause dryness or peeling) must stop using them one week prior to the Cosmelan Peel. Please be sure to inform the doctor if you are using any skin bleaching or lightening products, even those purchased over the counter.
• Avoid using your regular skincare products during the treatment period to prevent irritation. Hyaluronic acid (HA) serums are generally safe, and our staff will guide you on what products are suitable.

Common side effects may include redness, peeling, and increased skin sensitivity for the first few weeks. However, the Cosmelan 2 home cream is designed to soothe and reduce sensitivity, promoting faster skin recovery. Cosmelan does not contain hydroquinone. This allows for long-term use in preventing reoccurrence of pigmentation irregularities.

​​Initial results can be seen within the first week, with significant improvement in skin tone and reduction of pigmentation after 2-4 weeks. Full results may be visible after a few months, depending on individual skin conditions.

The results of Cosmelan are long-lasting but require proper maintenance to sustain. After the initial treatment, most clients experience a significant reduction in dark spots and hyperpigmentation, with results visible within 2-4 weeks. However, continued use of the Cosmelan 2 home care cream and strict sun protection are essential to maintaining the results. While pigmentation may recur due to factors like sun exposure or hormonal changes, periodic treatments and consistent skincare can help prolong the effects.

There is minimal downtime after the Cosmelan treatment. During the first week, you may experience redness, peeling, and skin sensitivity as your skin exfoliates and regenerates. This is a normal part of the process. Most people can resume normal activities, but you will need to avoid sun exposure and follow a strict skincare regimen to support healing and achieve the best results.

Yes, Cosmelan is suitable for all skin types and tones. It is specifically designed to treat a wide range of pigmentation issues, regardless of skin colour. Whether you have lighter or darker skin, Cosmelan works effectively to reduce hyperpigmentation and provide a more even complexion.
