Cosmelan is a fantastic treatment for melasma and hyperpigmentation. The best treatment is the medical grade Cosmelan. You will require two treatments three weeks apart for the best results. Please consult a board certified dermatologist with a lot of experience with Cosmelan for the best results.
Treating hyperpigmentation is not an easy endeavor. Need to take in consideration the cause of hyperpigmentation, the color of the patient skin, The depth of the pigmentation. Then a treatment plan can be planned. Cosmolan is just one part of the treatment and not the whole treatment.Samir Shureih MD. FACS.sshureih@msn.com
Cosmelan is a great product and I generally recommend two treatment 3 weeks apart as the company recommends for best results. Cosmelan re-application 4 months later should have had similar results. I would suggest you return to your treating physician for evaluation.
When I do a Cosmelan peel (and home care products) on my patients, I also give them a prescription strength hydrocortisone cream to use. This calms any associated redness, tightness, or dryness. Since adding this into the regimen I haven't had any patients with prolonged redness or irritation....
It specifically states to avoid the eye area with Cosmelan. I would refer you to the company's main number since they can best answer a question about their own products.
