Cosmelan Depigmentation Peel
We’re excited to offer the Mesoestetic® Cosmelan peel, a skin treatment that has been proven to deliver some of the most significant pigment reduction available through a topical procedure.
The Cosmelan peel is one of the most effective peels for sun damage and discoloration. Made of a mixture of highly effective ingredients, this peel exfoliates pigmentation, very effectively without the use of any heat or energy.

How Does it Work?
The peel works via two different mechanisms. First, the peel itself causes a true “peel” of the skin – exfoliating pigment and old skin cells. Then aggressive topical brighteners are applied continually for the following weeks to turn down the pigment production in the skin. A second touch-up peel is typically applied about 6 weeks after the first to further improve pigmentation.
What to Expect from Recovery and Results.
After your Cosmelan peel, you’ll have some redness, swelling, peeling, and slight irritation (like a sunburn) for about one to two weeks.
This is all completely normal, and part of the recovery process. You will need to refrain from wearing makeup for 7-10 days following treatment.
After two weeks, your skin will have shed the sun damage, discoloration, and will typically stop “peeling”. Maximum results are visible at about 2-3 weeks, which is why the touchup peel is then done at 3 weeks after the first. Strict adherence to the prescribed skincare treatment throughout is crucial to obtain good results.
