Cosmelan Pigmentation Treatment

Cosmelan is a professional depigmentation programme that combines an in-clinic mask with a structured course of home-care creams to reduce stubborn pigmentation such as melasma, sun spots and post-inflammatory marks. It works to lighten existing pigment and help control its return, and is one of the more comprehensive options for uneven skin tone. The price includes both the in-clinic treatment and the full home pack.

Cosmelan is a two-phase professional depigmentation system aimed at stubborn, diffuse pigmentation — particularly melasma, but also sun-induced spots and post-inflammatory marks — that has not responded to simpler measures. In the first phase a Cosmelan mask is applied in the clinic and left on for a set time at home before being washed off according to instructions. The second, longer phase is a structured home-care routine that maintains and extends the effect over the following weeks and months. At QKA the in-clinic application and instructions are provided by the doctor, and the price includes the home pack needed to carry out the programme correctly: the Cosmelan 2 home-care cream, a Melan Recovery nourishing cream to support the skin through the process, and a high-protection Melan 130+ Pigment Control Mesoprotech SPF, which is essential because sun exposure is a primary driver of pigmentation. In the days after the mask the skin commonly looks red and then flakes or peels as pigment is shed, so the recovery cream and strict sun protection are important. Cosmelan works to lighten existing pigment and to help keep it from returning, though ongoing sun protection and maintenance are needed because conditions like melasma are chronic and can recur. Reducing excess pigment is associated with a clearer, more even skin tone. Suitability — including realistic expectations for melasma — is assessed at consultation, and the programme is not used in pregnancy.
