Dermamelan® is a unique medical depigmentation method with proven efficacy for treating extreme and skin hyperpigmentations resistant to other treatment methods. Its dual action is able to correct visible hyperpigmentations and regulate melanin overproduction, to provide a short and long-term result with the outcome being clear and blemish-reduced skin.

There has been multiple clinical studies and thousands of patients and specialists all over the world that support the efficacy and safety of Dermamelan for the treatment of all types of skin hyperpigmentations and phototypes.

Skin hyperpigmentation is a common problem especially in the Australian sunny climate and affects all skin types and colours. Other than ultra-violet sun exposure hyperpigmentation is also triggered by numerous internal and other external factors such as:

• Genetic predisposition

• Hormonal fluctuations

• Ageing

• Inflammation due to skin conditions like acne

• Exposure to certain chemicals

• Photosensitising medication

• Trauma

Dermamelan can effectively treat various kinds of hyperpigmentation such as:

• Melasma

• Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation

• Freckles or ephelides

• Sun spots or solar lentigines

Our Dermamelan treatment provides an intensive corrective action on skin hyperpigmentation while regulating the overproduction of melanin by inhibiting and controlling the reoccurrence of new spots.

It provides long term results by regulating production of excessive pigmentation and short term corrective results by speeding up the skin renewal process, forcing skin shedding and removing melanin deposits.

Redness is evident immediately after washing off the depigmentation mask and can persist for up to 4 weeks. It generally starts to subside from day two onwards.

Pigmentation will become darker as it’s pushed towards the surface of your skin before shedding. This can last until the peeling has finished, which usually takes around two weeks.

Skin peeling and dryness will occur as the old skin is pushed to the surface and your new skin is revealed. The shedding usually starts from the centre of your face and graduates towards the perimeter. The parts of your expression that move a lot (like around your mouth), will peel faster and more excessively. Optimal results will be achieved when you allow the skin to shed naturally.

Skin sensitivity may increase due to the intensity of the depigmentation treatment causing a temporary impairment to the barrier of your skin.

Comprehensive post care guidelines will be given to you, so you can refer to them at home.

Results are best seen at 1 to 3 months after your Dermamelan treatment. With ongoing maintenance and follow up with our Dermal Practitioner you will be able to notice an overall improvement with your skin

You can expect to see:

• Significant reduction of hyperpigmentation

• Improvement of skin texture

• Improvement of skin tone
