It suits all skin types and is also used for fine lines, congestion and skin laxity.

Cosmelan FAQ.
Is Cosmelan painful?
Generally not. You may feel mild tingling or warmth while the mask is on, and some tightness afterwards that settles within a few hours.
How many sessions are needed?
In most cases Cosmelan is a single in-clinic session, followed by the prescribed home care routine. We may recommend follow-ups depending on your skin.
What should I expect afterwards?
Some redness and mild swelling that fades within hours, then peeling or flaking over the following days as pigmented skin sheds. Spots can look darker before they lighten over the following weeks.
Is there downtime?
Minimal. You can usually resume normal activities straight away, with careful sun protection and aftercare.
