Dermamelan is a world-renowned depigmentation treatment developed by Mesoestetic, specifically formulated to reduce all types of hyperpigmentation including melasma, sun spots, post-inflammatory pigmentation, freckles, and acne scarring. Suitable for all skin types and tones, including darker complexions, Dermamelan offers a safe and highly effective way to achieve a brighter, more even skin tone.
Dermamelan is designed to treat:
• Melasma
• Freckles
• Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH)
• Sun spots and age spots
• Acne scarring
• Uneven skin tone and texture
• Stubborn pigmentation that has persisted for over 10 years
Dermamelan is ideal if:
• You struggle with melasma, sun damage, acne scarring, or hormonal pigmentation
• Your pigmentation has been present for years and hasn’t responded to other treatments
• You’re seeking a non-laser solution suitable for all skin types and tones
• You want a long-term approach to clearer, even-toned skin
A skin consultation is essential to assess your suitability and create a tailored treatment plan.
The treatment begins with the application of a powerful in-clinic Dermamelan mask by our clinically trained therapists. This mask contains active ingredients that work to inhibit melanin production while accelerating cellular turnover. After a prescribed time (usually 8–12 hours), the mask is removed at home, and a tailored at-home skincare protocol is followed to maintain and enhance your results. This dual-action approach targets both superficial and deeper dermal pigmentation, delivering long-lasting results.
• Effective depigmentation – Targets and reduces even the most subborn forms of pigmentation.
• Improved skin texture – Leaves skin feeling smoother, softer, and more refined.
• Fast and long-lasting results – Visible improvement within 7-10 days, with continued progress over serveral months.
• Safe for all skin types – Including darker skin tones and sensitive skin.
• Reduces recurrence – Helps regulate melanin production to minimise future pigmentation.
You may start noticing a reduction in pigmentation within the first 7–10 days after treatment. Your skin will appear brighter, smoother, and more even in tone. Over the following weeks and months, your results will continue to improve, with significant long-term fading of pigmentation and a healthier overall complexion.
Most clients experience excellent results from just one Dermamelan treatment. However, in some cases of severe or long-standing pigmentation, a follow-up treatment may be recommended after several months.
At Upper Skin Clinic, we pride ourselves on using evidence-based, TGA-approved treatments tailored to your unique skin concerns. Our experienced team ensures your Dermamelan journey is supported from start to finish, offering expert guidance, a thorough consultation process, and ongoing aftercare to ensure you get the most from your results.
To prepare for your treatment:
• Attend a consultation to confirm Dermamelan is right for you.
• Use the recommended Brightening Peel Booster for four weeks pre-treatment.
• Avoid excessive sun exposure for 2–4 weeks prior.
• Do not undergo other heat-based treatments (e.g., saunas, solariums) two weeks before.
• Arrive at your appointment with clean skin, free from skincare or makeup products.
To optimise your recovery and results:
• The Dermamelan mask remains on the skin for 8–12 hours, as instructed by your therapist.
• After removal, spritz your face every 2–4 hours to keep the skin hydrated and soothe irritation.
• Follow your customised at-home skincare protocol strictly.
• Avoid heat-based activities and direct sun exposure for at least 72 hours post-treatment.
• Expect mild to moderate shedding and peeling for up to two weeks or longer.
• Important: Do not pick or peel the skin – this may affect your results and cause scarring.
Most clients see great results after a single treatment, but more severe pigmentation may benefit from a second treatment several months later.
Initial results can be seen within 7–10 days, with continued improvement over several months as pigmentation fades and skin texture improves.
Yes, Dermamelan is safe and effective for all skin tones and types, including sensitive and darker skin.
Peeling usually begins 2–3 days after treatment and may last for up to two weeks, depending on individual skin response.
We recommend avoiding makeup for the first few days to allow your skin to heal and breathe.
Mild irritation is normal. If you experience persistent redness or discomfort, follow your therapist’s aftercare instructions and reach out for support. Adjustments to your routine may be made to suit your skin.
