Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

7 month update
The results are holding up really well! The disfiguring pigmentary lines around my mouth are pretty much gone. I haven't had any recurrences, even with my period, though I did get an IUD recently as well and have less periods. I walk around with any makeup. My hyperpigmentation has never been gone for this length of time! My life is changed!
I am still doing the maintenance routine - I use the Cosmelan sunscreen Mesoprotech twice a day, the Cosmelan 2 and Melan Recovery cream once at night. Still very much extremely satisfied with the melasma treatment, and would recommend this to anyone who has refractory melasma and can afford this.

2 months after Cosmelan - great results!
My melasma/pigmentary demarcation line (PDL) was gone and redness/peeling gone as well 1 month after Cosmelan. Usually, my hyperpigmentation recurs with my period or around after 1 month, but this time my results have been consistent over time, which I am very happy with. I am compliant with the continuous Cosmelan home care (at this point doing Cosmelan 2 & Melan Recovery morning and evening, and Mesoprotech morning and afternoon.) Extremely satisfied!
Worked for my Melasma and Pigmentary Demarcation Lines!
I have recurrent melasma or pigmentary demarcation lines around my mouth; I have always felt disfigured. Over the years, I've spent hundreds on various creams. Some worked only for a little while. Triluma has worked for me multiple times, but the hyperpigmentation always came back with my period. And recently, it stopped working altogether. I wanted to find something without hydroquinone. I bought the Cosmelan pack online and applied for 10 hours according to my skin type. My skin peeled for 3 days and it's still red. But I can tell that my hyperpigmentation is gone! I am 7 days out and have been compliant with the Cosmelan regimen. I will update this post in the future and report whether my hyperpigmentation recurs or not.
