Why do people get pigmented: Each of us has an enzyme called tyrosinase which produces melanin and melanocytes. Melanin gives color to our skin, hair, eyes and more. The more melanin our body produces the darker it becomes.
Cosmelan and Dermamelan inhibit the production of melanin by suppressing the function of tyrosinase. Less tyrosine, less melanin. This process helps the body stop accumulating pigment and stimulates it to recover the skin. Thus thse treatments are considered the best therapies for topical skin lightening and pigment removal.
Cosmelan and Dermamelan do not contain bleaching agents. They have acids and vitamins which help the skin recover from pigmentation.
How do they Differ from each other: Cosmelan and Dermamelan work similarly. Dermamelan is considered the more robust version. In Dermamelan, the active ingredients are more concentrated. Thus it is suitable for sever dark and very heavy pigmentation and aggressive dark spots.
Cosmelan on the other hand is milder for mild pigmentation skin condition.
