Cosmelan
Cosmelan mask is a must for stubborn Melasma. If you have tried everything and it is only becoming worse, this product is amazing.
It works for freckles and liver spots just as effectively. Expect to be red and dry for the first couple of days and then you will drastically peel on day 3-5. You will not want to have an important event coming up during this time frame. After that, your skin will be drastically more clear and prepare to spot treat as needed around 21 days after initial treatment. Your at home regimen will be sent home to continue for the next 6 months.
The discoloration does not come back but you must be diligent to wear sunscreen and minimize sun exposure to reduce new ares of discoloration.
Cosmelan® What is it and what does it consist of?

The synergistic action of the method products ensures: higher depigmenting efficacy and greater comfort during treatment with a lower risk of repigmentation. Compliance with home schedule is essential to meet the depigmenting objective in the short and long term. All at home products will be sent home with the patient.
