How peels work

Renew your skin

Skin peels renew the skin by loosening the bonds between dead surface cells and the healthier skin underneath. They range in strength from superficial to intense, so we can address a wide range of skin concerns.

Whether you want to clear acne or restore luminosity to your skin, our advanced range of clinical skin peels has a solution for everyone.

Choose your strength

Peel levels

We match the peel to your skin and your goals. Gentle acids refresh and hydrate; stronger peels target pigmentation, texture and signs of aging.

Level 1

Superficial peels

Lactic Acid

Best for dry or mature skin

Lactic acid has the largest molecules of the three AHAs. Its larger size lets it absorb slowly and gently into the skin to renew aging skin and restore hydration.

Mandelic Acid

Best for oily skin & large pores

Mandelic acid is an AHA that acts like a BHA. It lifts sun damage and stimulates collagen, while also reducing oil flow and pore size.

Glycolic Acid

Best for aging & sun-damaged skin

Glycolic acid has the smallest molecules of any AHA, so it penetrates the skin the fastest. That gives the greatest amount of shedding, making it the preferred peel for aging and sun-damaged skin.

Salicylic Acid

Best for acne & congestion

Salicylic acid is oil-soluble, so it passes easily through the skin's lipid barrier to decongest clogged pores for clearer, blemish-free skin. Its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties also soothe inflamed, acne-prone skin and help prevent future breakouts.

Level 2

TCA Peels

10–35% TCA

A stronger, medium-depth peel for visible correction of pigmentation, texture and signs of aging.

  • Lightens pigmentation
  • Improves skin texture
  • Boosts collagen and elastin production
  • Rejuvenates the skin
  • Improves the appearance of wrinkles and signs of premature aging

The science

How does Cosmelan work?

The Cosmelan® formula combines active ingredients with proven efficacy that act on every stage of the hyperpigmentation process. It removes existing pigmentation and helps prevent both its return and the appearance of new dark spots.

Stops new pigment

Regulating

Cosmelan works on two levels. First, it inhibits the activation of tyrosinase inside the melanosome and reduces oxidative stress, lowering melanin production. Second, copper chelators (Cu2+) further reduce tyrosinase function.

It also blocks the transfer of melanosomes to the keratinocytes, which stops pigment moving up to the surface layers of the skin.

Fades existing spots

Corrective

It reduces the amount of melanin your skin makes, fading the intensity of dark spots. It also works on the stratum corneum, stimulating renewal of the epidermis and clearing away built-up melanin.

Cosmelan FAQs

Is Cosmelan a skin peel?

Although it's often called a peel, Cosmelan goes further. Peels act on the surface of the problem, while Cosmelan gets to the root. It visibly removes and fades pigmentation spots like a peel, while also regulating and correcting the overproduction of pigment to help prevent spots from coming back.

What type of pigmentation does Cosmelan treat?

Cosmelan treats pigmentation caused by the overproduction of melanin, whether triggered by hormones, sun exposure, genetics or scarring. It effectively treats melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) and freckles or sun spots.

When is the best time to get Cosmelan?

Cosmelan can be done any time of year, as long as you can keep the treated area out of long periods of intense sun. Fall and winter are ideal for this reason. If you can't avoid the sun, you'll need extra care: apply a very high sunscreen such as Melan 130 Pigment Control generously, and keep time outdoors to an absolute minimum.

When will I see results?

The biggest changes happen in the first few weeks, with smoother texture and a noticeable fading of pigmentation. This can feel like the job is done, but it isn't yet. Melanin has been cleared from the outer layers of skin, while the melanocytes underneath can still overproduce pigment. Continuing your home treatment is what keeps pigmentation from coming back.

Can I go about my normal day during treatment?

Yes. Cosmelan isn't invasive, so you can keep up your daily routine. For the first few days after your in-clinic treatment, avoid swimming pools, prolonged sun exposure and activities that make you sweat heavily.

Can pigmentation return after treatment?

Your in-clinic treatment visibly removes excess pigmentation, but pigmentation is a dynamic process and the imbalance behind it can cause spots to return. Even once the spots are gone, a daily regulating depigmentation product and year-round sun protection are essential to prevent them coming back.

Does Cosmelan have side effects?

When used correctly under the supervision of your skin specialist, there should be no side effects. After your in-clinic treatment, your skin may be irritated or red for a few days, which is normal and expected. During the home phase, slight peeling and sensitivity are common and settle with the home products your specialist recommends.
