This treatment consists of 3 main phases:
Firstly, preparing the skin and repairing the skin’s barrier, getting inflammation and pigment triggers under control;
Secondly, the in-clinic treatment, which is a depigmenting mask that kickstarts the process of treating the dark patches or Melasma which sits deep within the skin;
Thirdly, the home care maintenance treatment products further improve the process started by the in-clinic procedure.
The MesoBrite Depigmentation Treatment really is the complete solution to targeting hyperpigmentation, including sun-induced pigmentation and melasma.
MELANOout System® by MCCM Medical has been designed to reduce and eliminate spots of melanic origin on the face, neck, and neckline. The skin tone becomes more uniform, and the results are excellent without the need for severe aggressive peeling treatments and with almost no side effects. The result is a reduction in skin blemishes, including dark marks, sun spots, PIH, Melasma and even acne marks, resulting in a more uniform skin tone.
What are the main differences between Dermamelan/Cosmelan and the MELANOout System?
MELANOout System | Dermamelan / Cosmelan |
---|---|
1) Less Aggressive: Very gentle post-treatment peeling due to anti-inflammatory properties in the system 2) Focus on ongoing suppression of inflammation, sensitivity, tyrosinase inhibition and minimising post-treatment side effects in order to lessen the chance of aggressive pigment resurgence 3) Price – more affordable Can be combined with other treatments (i.e. patient can safely continue with other treatments during the maintenance phase) – Only select products in the Home Care Pack PLUS need to be stopped and started in order to continue with other treatments (and only in the first four months of the maintenance phase is this necessary). | 1) More aggressive reaction – known to cause significant redness and peeling post-treatment 2) Focus is on constant resurfacing and pigment suppression – both of which are great, but many patients do experience ongoing dryness, flakiness and sensitivity and therefore, pigment resurgence can occur 3) Price – due to the high price, Dermamelan & Cosmelan treatments are not an option for most Combinations with other treatments are not advised – or the maintenance phase needs to be stopped and started in order to have other treatments, and this is ongoing for up to 9 months. |
Melissa is highly personable and extremely professional. I trust her skill and recommendations implicitly and I am comfortable around her (she also happen to be one of my favourite people all round). She delivers consistently high treatment standards!
MoreThe Cosmelan treatment is the best thing that ever happened to my skin. Pigmentation is almost gone, my skin texture is amazing and my skin looks radiant. My skin therapist was amazing, she followed up with me and answered all my questions. Cosmelan is amazing!
MoreI visited Skin Renewal to seek help for my pigmentation. The doctor explained everything step by step. The staff is friendly and kind. I really see improvement on my face. My therapist Melissa is just amazing. I can't wait to see the end results. Thanks Skin Renewal, you guys rock!
MoreThank you, Dr. Maureen, you are like a breath of fresh air. So polite, kind and professional.
My battle with severe pigmentation has been for several years - I went to every doctor, dermatologist, plastic surgeon available to me. I have done Fraxel, to name a few, all these treatments would only cause slight improvement and then a month or two later it would come back in some way darker than it originally was. Doctor Allem has been my saving grace. I wish I came to her sooner, she is a power house of knowledge on all issues, specially relating to pigmentation and ageing. People comment on how nice my skin is looking and ask what I have done. I would only recommend Dr Allem and her branches. I cannot express my thanks to her enough.
MoreI used skin brightening with Hydroquinone on my skin, my face had two colours. Thanks to my Dr, for a non-surgical solution. I now have my confidence back, I can go out without wearing any make-up. I am renewed. Thanks to Dr and the staff. You're forever smiling and reminding me of my appointments. Stay blessed.
MoreI am very satisfied with the service at the Fourways branch. The doctors and the therapists are professional and competent and the support staff are brilliant. The friendly and professional way you are treated truly is to be commended. Even the one problem i did have was handled so well by the manager and smoothed over effortlessly. Thank you very much to everyone at Fourways!
