Cosmelan MD depigmentation peel

A gold standard treatment specialized for the treatment of Melasma, Cholasma, Age/Liver Spots or scarring from acne.

Chemical Peels are an excellent and effective way to treat skin conditions like hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone. One of our most powerful peels available at Nuvo Medispa is the Cosmelan MD Depigmentation Peel. A gold standard treatment specialized for the treatment of Melasma (one of the toughest skin condition to treat), Cholasma, Age/Liver Spots or scarring from acne.

This unique, multi-ingredient peel contains very active skin brightening ingredients such as azelaic acid, kojic acid, arbutine, phytic acid and ascorbic acid. Not only will they help treat and lighten existing pigmentation but also go one step further and inhibit tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for the production of melanin, giving your skin an extra line of defense in protecting itself against for the formation of new pigmentation. By slowing down the production of new pigmentation, existing dark spots and discolouration will start to fade.

The Cosmelan Peel Procedure, is a two-step process. The first step is an in-office application of the peel by one of our licensed Medical Aestheticians. The peel, which looks like a mask will be left on the skin anywhere from 6-12 hours depending on the individual need and severity of the skin. The patient will later wash the mask off at home after the recommended amount of hours. The second part of the process will be continued at home by the patient, through the continued use of the Cosmelan home care depigmentation system. The whole procedure takes less than an hour.
