Brown spots, uneven patches, and stubborn pigmentation can be frustrating — especially when they don’t fade despite all your best skin care attempts.
At The Glow Clinic in Bellevue, WA, we understand how aggravating and inconvenient stubborn brown spots and uneven pigmentation can be when you’re trying to look your best. We blend naturopathic and traditional techniques to provide comprehensive solutions for beautiful skin.
Our highly trained skincare experts have faced (and defeated!) challenging skin issues ourselves, so we bring empathy and firsthand knowledge to your treatment. When our patients ask about banishing stubborn brown spots, Cosmelan® is one of our go-to treatments. This blog explains how this system works and what you can expect.
How Cosmelan Works
To understand the treatment process for the Cosmelan system you first need to understand what’s in it. It starts with an advanced peel that contains unique ingredients, including:
- Ascorbic acid
- Kojic acid
- Azelaic acid
- Arbutin
- Phytic acid
These ingredients target pigmentation at its source. The peel blocks tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin production. This reduces existing pigmentation and helps stop new spots from forming.
The Cosmelan Treatment Process
Our skilled estheticians first prep your skin with microdermabrasion to exfoliate the top layer of skin. This removes dead cells and allows for deeper peel penetration. We apply your Cosmelan peel next. This thick, brown peel has a clay-like texture often likened to a mud mask.
You’ll wear the mask at home for about 8-10 hours, carefully removing it as instructed. Within days, your skin starts exfoliating, gradually revealing a brighter, more even complexion.
After the mask removal, we recommend a specific protocol. Your home kit includes a facial cream, recovery balm, and tinted sunscreen. Cosmelan designed this at-home system to work alongside the peel for optimal long-term depigmentation.
In three weeks, you’ll have a touch-up session to enhance results.
