Cosmelan Peel Perth

Reduced Appearance of Pigmentation

Cosmelan Peel may help reduce the appearance of several types of pigmentation, including melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, age spots and freckles. Many patients see a visible reduction in dark patches and uneven spots, although the degree of improvement varies and depends on the type and depth of pigmentation.

A More Even-Looking Skin Tone

By reducing the appearance of discolouration, Cosmelan Peel can help skin tone look more even and the complexion look brighter.

Home Care to Help Maintain Results

The at-home phase of the program is designed to help maintain results over time. Pigmentation can still return, particularly with sun exposure, hormonal changes or inflammation, so daily sun protection and ongoing home care are important.

An Option for Persistent Pigmentation

Some pigmentation, including melasma, may not respond well to over-the-counter products or lighter treatments. Cosmelan Peel may be an option for these concerns. Your clinician will assess your skin at consultation and advise whether it is suitable for you, or whether another treatment may be more appropriate.

Smoother-Looking Skin Texture

As the skin renews after the peel, many patients notice their skin texture looks smoother and more refined. Results vary between individuals.

Most patients can expect around 5–7 days of visible recovery, during which the skin undergoes a natural renewal process.

Immediately After Treatment (Days 1–3):

• Skin will likely appear red, slightly swollen, and feel warm, similar to a mild sunburn.
• This is a normal response as the peel begins working on the skin.
• Some tightness may be felt as the skin prepares to shed damaged outer layers.

Peeling & Renewal Phase (Days 3–7):

• Peeling and flaking usually begin around day three, accompanied by some dryness.
• Shedding is a sign of accelerated cell turnover, as newer skin comes through.
• It’s important not to pick or pull at peeling skin to avoid irritation or uneven results.

Post-One Week:

• By day 7, most redness and peeling have subsided, and patients notice their skin looks brighter and more even.
• Residual dryness or light flaking may persist for a short time but can be easily managed with recommended post-care treatments.
• Consistent home care is essential for achieving and maintaining your results. Skipping the home care routine can reduce the benefit of the treatment.

Possible Risks and Side Effects:

• Redness, swelling, warmth, stinging or tightness in the days after treatment.
• Dryness, irritation or increased skin sensitivity, including to sunlight.
• Uncommonly, darkening of pigmentation (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation), which may be more likely in some skin types.
• Pigmentation may return, particularly if home care or sun protection is not maintained.

Results vary between individuals. Your clinician will discuss the risks relevant to you at your consultation.
