Cosmelan therapy

Skin hyperpigmentation is a global concern, especially in Indian setup that bruises like a peach and tans like a ginger. Every second Indian is suffering from one or the other forms of hyperpigmentation, especially tanning. Sun exposure is unavoidable in any part of the country. Even for ones who always stay indoors, a trip to the grocery store can cause enough sun exposure to cause hyperpigmentation problems.

Melasma is one of the most common yet distressing pigmentation problems affecting the majority of Indians, predominantly females. While few subtypes respond drastically to pico lasers for pigmentation and even routine chemical peels, a subset of melasma is absolutely resistant to treatment, even topical preparations. Such individuals should opt for cosmelan therapy.
