Cosmelan Best for my Malesma
I have Olive skin and have spent most of my life jogging in the sun. At age 29 I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and had to get it removed and radiation treatment for two years. About 5 years later I started getting dark spots on my cheek bone area to covering my whole face! I’ve tried peels, microdermabrasion, hydroquoine, and all brighten my skin but wouldn’t remove my spots. All full coverage make up was not enough as I had to cake it on.
So I went to visit Dr. Minina and introduced me to Cosmelan kit. It cost $450 but I was desperate!
In office they put a mask on my entire face and went home. I had to wear the mask for 8 hours. After I would was it off. I then had to use moisturizer and the Cosmelan 2 maintanence cream. The moisturizer that came in the kit finished after a few days so the dr. Told me to use Aquaphor healing ointment. (Love it). The day after washing the mask my face was lobster red. Did not hurt but it’s best not to get any sun for the first week. I was red for almost a week. I suggest not go to work for one week if possible. If you have to go outside for whatever reason you must wear sunscreen.
After a week, my face was 98% flawless!! I would go to buy groceries out without makeup and would get so many stares!! Your skin is left spot free and glowing. I love it.
After a month of using the maintenance cream, my skin maintained. When I stopped using the maintenance cream, my Malesma would start creeping back. But no problem! Start using the maintenance cream again religiously and it will clear up again. A year later my skin still looks good. In addition to the maintenance cream I also use other products from them that inhibit the pigmentation from coming back. I use the melan tran3x serum and night and followed by the trans3xcream.
I see others reviews where they complain and state their melasma come back. Honestly, they may not be following the skin care as instructed. You must use maintenance cream, sunblock everyday, and if you have stubborn Malesma like me, than use additional serum from the company as the one I described.
