pigmentation
and age spots
are common skin

be impervious to
skin treatments.

Docherty reports.
Pigmentation is perceived as the
most important skin problem after
wrinkles and sagging. It’s been
estimated that more than 90 percent
of Caucasian people aged over 50
have age spots, and that pigmentation
treatments represent over 20 percent of
the total cosmetic market.
The cause of hyperpigmentation or
dark spots is complex, and typically
involves a number of different factors,
including genetic predisposition, postinflammatory
response to skin trauma,
ageing, excessive sun exposure and
hormonal changes such as pregnancy.
Mesoestetic is a global leader
in the medico-aesthetic skincare
industry, offering a range of treatments
depending on the severity and
stubbornness of the pigmentation.
With the world’s best-selling skin
brightening treatments, Cosmelan
and Dermamelan, Mesoestetic is
revolutionising the treatment of
pigmentation and spots, becoming a
global standard in helping to combat
pigmentation.
About the treatments
Mesoestetic offers different depigmentation treatments depending on
the severity of the skin disorder and the patient’s lifestyle commitments.
Cosmelan and Dermamelan are two such professional skin
brightening treatments developed by Mesoestetic. They are topical
solutions that help visibly reduce dark spots, restore radiance and
luminosity to the skin, and even out skin tone. Versatile and easy to
apply, the treatments can be adapted to all skin colours, all year round.
The success rates are outstanding, but be prepared for some
downtime. However, for lifelong pigmentation sufferers, the promise of
smooth and clear skin far outweighs the small amount of downtime.
This typically involves peeling, shedding and redness which can last
several weeks.
Cosmelan and Dermamelan treatments are tailored to each individual
and the results are long lasting. The treatment itself involves a two-stage
process: the procedure conducted by the professional in-clinic (first
step) and the at-home care routine (second step).
These powerhouse treatments offer very promising results on all
types of pigmentation, including melasma which has traditionally been
very resilient to treatment.
How do they work?
Cosmelan and Dermamelan act on the cells that are responsible
for skin pigmentation, cleverly slowing down melanin production in
hyperpigmented areas and thereby helping to lighten unsightly patches
and niggling dark spots.
The treatment produces a clear and remarkable skin-brightening
effect and is highly effective for treating all types of skin spots: melasma
and chloasma, age spots, sun damage spots, and pigmentation due to
the use of oral contraceptives, among others.
What are the results?
After the first or second week of treatment, the appearance of
pigmented blemishes or spots is lighter and less noticeable and the skin
is visibly clearer.
Both Cosmelan and Dermamelan treatments have an impressive
clearance rate, reducing pigmentation spots by up to 95 percent in
nearly all cases. This new generation of skin-brightening treatments is
offering pigmentation sufferers renewed hope, with one-time treatments
to effective eliminate brown spots and even out skin tone. csbm
