It was a waste of time and money!!! The pigmentation still on my face. They gave me another treatment aside from cosmelan and still the outcome was the same. Never I will have a second application. That's all I can say.

Great review?

I recent had a tca chemical pell. Not worth $$ or down time. Didnt work for me. In fact, my face looks worse, same brown spots and melasma still there. Very disappointed. Bleach not working either. Omgosh. Now what. Laser is very painful. Several treatments work over time, but very painful.

Hi my dermatologist recommended me to undergo cosmelan treatment. i do not have dark spots, only freckles. after c1, my face was a rosy and it was firm/taut. it's telling me my skin just got firm which is good in a way. on the 2nd and 3rd it started peeling. it wasnt an ugly peeling, i can still put make-up on but i cant conceal the peeling. i was excited to use the c2 on the third night. when i awoke the next day, my skin looked better. i have been applying the c2 only at night and so far, its working for me :) it's been 8 weeks since i applied c2 and am so loving the results. i have less oilier skin, most of the freckles diminished... my skin looks radiant! so far? i love what i see

I have tried the C2 and it worked very well. My melasma is deep so nothing ever worked. This is th first product that showed me some hope. I am getting the whole treatment in a few weeks. I will try and let you know how that goes.

I had high expectations with cosmelan after reading great reviews about it. I guess it really doesnt work for everybody. I had to rest my skin for a week since im still peeling so much and skin is still red after 2 wks.Thanks for sharing your experience.

I did apply the C2 the following day. My doc said I have to apply twice a day. Morning and evening.
I was disappointed with the result after 2 months of using it. Now I am not using it anymore and never will.

Hi,
I tried the cosmelan last Jan 24, 2011, after 5 days i started seeing improvements, now my doc asked me to stop for a week my skin is getting very very dry and to think i only put the C2 once a day instead of the 2-3x/day recommended dosage..disappointed..hoping skin will still improve..

@jules,
after the C1 mask was removed, did u immediately put C2 mask the next day? and how many times did u apply? thanks!!
