COSMELAN™ Perth
Advanced Pigment & Melasma Management for Stubborn, Recurring Pigmentation
“You’re not imagining it. Pigmentation can be one of the
most frustrating and emotionally exhausting skin concerns to manage.”
“You’re not imagining it. Pigmentation can be one of the most frustrating and emotionally exhausting skin concerns to manage.”
Pigmentation can feel
like a constant cycle.
It fades… then slowly returns again.
Every summer feels like it undoes your progress. You start a new treatment hopeful, only to feel disappointed when the pigment gradually comes back.
For many people, pigmentation is not just about appearance. It affects confidence, comfort without makeup, how healthy the skin looks, and overall trust in your skin.
At Shape of You Perth, we use Cosmelan as part of a strategic approach to stubborn and recurring pigmentation, including melasma, hormonal pigmentation, sun damage, and post-inflammatory pigmentation.
Every treatment begins with a detailed consultation. We assess pigment type, depth, trigger patterns, skin sensitivity, hormonal influences, UV and heat exposure, and long-term skin goals.
"Many pigment clients feel like they've spent years chasing temporary
improvement without ever truly feeling in control of their skin."

What Is Cosmelan™?
Cosmelan™ is an advanced professional depigmentation system designed to help manage stubborn and recurring pigmentation concerns. Unlike many traditional pigment treatments that focus primarily on surface correction, Cosmelan™ is positioned globally as a treatment system designed to support long-term pigment management.
The goal is not simply brighter skin temporarily. The goal is helping skin feel more even, more controlled, more predictable — and calmer long-term.

- Hormonal Pigmentation
- Sun Damage
- Post-Inflammatory Pigmentation
- Uneven Skin Tone
- Recurring Pigmentation
"Pigment clients are often exhausted from treatments that improve the surface temporarily… but never address the long-term behaviour of the pigment."
Why Clients Choose Cosmelan™
Over Traditional Pigment Treatments
Why Clients Choose Cosmelan Over
Traditional Pigment Treatments
Not all pigmentation behaves the same way. Many clients have already tried random peels, brightening facials, skincare products, IPL treatments, and over-the-counter pigment products — only to feel frustrated when the pigment eventually returns again.
Cosmelan™ is different because it is designed as a structured pigment management system rather than a once-off brightening treatment. Rather than focusing only on lifting visible pigment temporarily, Cosmelan™ is designed to support management of pigment formation pathways involved in recurring pigmentation concerns.

Guide
Cosmelan™ Treatment Process
Cosmelan™ is a structured pigmentation correction plan, not a one-off peel. The treatment combines professional in-clinic application with guided home care to support long-term pigment regulation and clearer-looking skin.
Step 1: Consultation
Your skin is assessed to determine your pigmentation type, treatment suitability and personalised correction plan.
Step 2: In-clinic mask application
A professional Cosmelan™ mask is applied in clinic and left on for the recommended time based on your skin condition.
Step 3: Home care phase
You’ll follow a structured home care protocol to continue pigment correction and support the skin during recovery.
Step 4: Follow-up and maintenance
Follow-up care helps monitor progress, adjust your routine and maintain long-term results.
Cosmelan™ Results, Downtime and Timeline
Cosmelan™ results develop progressively over time as the skin renews and pigment regulation improves.
What to expect
- Redness and sensitivity may occur
- Peeling and dryness are expected
- The skin may feel tight during recovery
Results timeline

Every pigmentation journey is different, which is why Cosmelan™ treatment plans are customised based on your skin condition and goals.
Customised plans

An investment in correction
Cosmelan™ is designed as a long-term pigment correction plan, not a quick facial treatment.
Medical and Clinical Considerations

Compliance matters
Following the home care protocol is essential for optimal pigment correction and long-term maintenance.
Cosmelan™ vs Standard Peels
Why Clients Choose Cosmelan Over
Traditional Pigment Treatments
Many clients have tried brightening peels or exfoliating treatments first — only to find pigmentation returns. Not all pigment treatments are designed the same way.
Standard Peels
Chemical exfoliants & brightening treatments
- Targets surface skin layers only
- Lifts visible pigment temporarily
- No effect on pigment formation pathways
- Pigmentation typically returns
- Less suited to hormonal or recurring pigment
“Peels can improve appearance temporarily, but without addressing why pigment keeps forming, results rarely last.”
Cosmelan™
Professional multi-pathway pigment management
- Works across multiple pigment depths
- Interrupts pigment formation pathways
- Supports long-term melanin regulation
- Designed for recurring & hormonal pigment
- Globally recognised depigmentation system
“Cosmelan™ is not a peel. It is a structured depigmentation system, and that distinction matters.”
Home Care in Long-Term Pigment Management
Why Clients Choose Cosmelan Over
Traditional Pigment Treatments
What happens at home between appointments is just as important as the clinical treatment. Without the right home care, pigmentation is more likely to return.
SPF 50+
UV exposure is the primary trigger for pigment recurrence. Broad-spectrum SPF 50+ daily is non-negotiable during and after Cosmelan™.
Cosmelan 2
The prescribed maintenance cream continues the depigmentation work nightly and helps prevent pigment from recurring between appointments.
Retinol
Supports skin cell turnover and helps fade post-inflammatory pigmentation. Introduced at the right stage of your plan alongside Cosmelan.
Pigment Inhibitors
Targeted actives that suppress melanin production and support the clinical work Cosmelan™ is doing.
“Home care is not optional, it is part of the treatment.”
All home care guidance is personalised and reviewed as part of your ongoing Cosmelan™ plan at Shape of You Perth.
Cosmelan™ is not a quick fix.
It is a treatment plan.
For best results, consistency with your home care is essential. This is what supports the skin long-term and helps prevent pigmentation from returning.
Pigment Concerns
Cosmelan May Help Support
Pigment Concerns Cosmelan
May Help Support
Melasma
One of the most emotionally exhausting pigmentation concerns to manage. Often triggered by hormonal changes, heat, UV exposure and pregnancy. Cosmelan is commonly used as part of a broader long-term melasma management strategy.
Hormonal Pigmentation
Often feels unpredictable and difficult to control, worsening seasonally and returning repeatedly. Shape of You Perth approaches this as strategic pigment managers, not quick-fix practitioners.
Post-Inflammatory Pigmentation
Dark marks left behind after acne or inflammation that linger long after the breakout itself has healed. Cosmelan may help support long-term improvement in these stubborn marks.
Sun Damage & Uneven Tone
Years of UV exposure contributing to patchy skin tone, sun spots and overall skin dullness. Many clients feel their skin tone never really looks even, and Cosmelan can form part of a targeted strategy.
Recurring Pigmentation
Pigment that fades with treatment but reliably returns. Cosmelan is specifically designed to support management of the underlying pigment formation behaviour rather than surface correction alone.
Treatment-Resistant Pigment
Pigmentation that has not responded adequately to previous treatments. A consultation-led strategy helps identify the right combination approach for your specific pigment behaviour.
The Science of Cosmelan™
Why Clients Choose Cosmelan Over
Traditional Pigment Treatments
Pigmentation management is complex because pigment is often influenced by multiple internal and external triggers. Cosmelan™ is designed as a structured depigmentation system intended to help support visible pigment correction, pigment regulation, and long-term pigment management.
Successful pigment management often comes down to understanding what is triggering the pigment — not simply treating what is visible on the surface. At Shape of You Perth, treatment plans are customised carefully because not every pigmentation concern behaves the same way.
Sometimes one pigment treatment isn't enough. Some clients benefit from Cosmelan™ alone, while others may require a layered pigment strategy involving IPL, skin peels, barrier repair, LED, skin needling, and long-term home care — depending on the type and behaviour of the pigmentation.
Results are progressive. Clients may notice more even skin tone, improved skin clarity, reduction in visible pigmentation, healthier-looking skin, and more controlled pigment behaviour. Results depend on pigment type, hormonal influences, UV and heat exposure, trigger management, consistency, and home care.

-
Cosmelan is commonly used as part of a broader melasma management strategy. Because melasma is influenced by hormonal changes, heat, and UV exposure, it is rarely about a single treatment — Cosmelan forms part of a longer-term approach to managing pigment behaviour rather than offering a one-time cure.
-
Results are progressive. Many clients begin to notice visible improvement from around 4 weeks, with continued improvement over 8 weeks and beyond. Long-term pigment management continues as part of an ongoing skin strategy.
-
Pigmentation — particularly melasma and hormonal pigmentation — can recur if triggers such as UV exposure, heat, and hormonal fluctuations are not managed. That's why Cosmelan is used as part of a broader long-term strategy rather than as a standalone once-off treatment.
-
IPL and Cosmelan™ are not the same category. IPL is focused primarily on visible surface correction including sun damage and redness. Cosmelan™ is designed to support long-term pigment management — particularly for recurring concerns like melasma and hormonal pigmentation. The right choice depends on your pigment type and history, which is determined during consultation.
-
Some clients experience dryness, flaking, or temporary redness during the treatment process. The intensity varies based on skin sensitivity, pigment condition, and home care adherence. Your treatment plan and aftercare protocol are managed carefully to support skin recovery and barrier health throughout.
