When can I expect swelling to go down after Cosmelan? (Photo)

Congratulations on your cosmelan peel. You can expect to be red ir dark pink the day after the mask. When you start applying the cosmelan 2 you will continue to be pink. In our offices protocol, we apply cosmelan 2 three times a day for the first week and then twice a day for the second week and then just one a day until it is gone. By day ten your pinkness should be diminishing and your pigment should be cut in half.  I wanted to add that your selling is usually worse on the third day. So don't be alarmed, you are getting over the hump!!

Cosmelan is a very superficial peel. Some people will swell quite a bit with it. Usually comes down in a few days. Talk to your dermatologist and he/she can give you some medications to help it resolve faster.
