Dermamelan requires careful preparation to assess your skin and support an appropriate treatment response.

• Skin Analysis: A professional skin assessment is required before treatment to evaluate your pigmentation concerns, skin condition and suitability.
• Preparation Protocol: Follow the specific skincare preparation programme prescribed by your Pelle practitioner.
• Sun Protection: Minimise UV exposure and avoid tanning before treatment. Consistent sun protection is particularly important when managing pigmentation.
• Active Skincare: Discuss retinoids, exfoliating acids, prescription skincare and other active ingredients with your practitioner before making changes to your routine.
• Medical History: Disclose relevant medications, allergies, pregnancy or breastfeeding status, recent procedures and any history of unusual pigmentation or skin reactions.
• Treatment Planning: Ensure you understand the expected recovery, homecare commitments and follow-up requirements before beginning.

After Dermamelan, the skin may experience visible redness, dryness, tightness, sensitivity and peeling. The intensity and duration of these effects vary between individuals.

• Follow Your Prescribed Regimen: Use the post-treatment products and application schedule provided by your practitioner. Do not adjust the protocol without guidance.
• Support the Skin Barrier: Follow instructions for gentle cleansing, hydration and barrier-supportive skincare.
• Protect Against UV Exposure: Practise strict sun protection, including shade and broad-spectrum sunscreen as directed by your practitioner.
• Avoid Unapproved Actives: Do not introduce additional exfoliants, retinoids or other potentially irritating ingredients unless approved by your practitioner.
• Do Not Pick or Exfoliate: Allow any flaking or peeling skin to shed naturally.
• Attend Follow-Up Appointments: Ongoing reviews help your practitioner assess your response and adjust the treatment plan where needed.

Contact Pelle promptly if you experience severe or worsening discomfort, blistering, significant swelling, signs of infection or an unexpected reaction.

Dermamelan is a professional depigmentation treatment programme developed to address the appearance of persistent pigmentation concerns. It combines an in-clinic treatment phase with ongoing homecare and practitioner supervision.

Dermamelan may be considered for concerns such as melasma, sun-related pigmentation, freckles and uneven skin tone. The suitability of treatment depends on the cause and depth of pigmentation, skin characteristics and medical history.

Dermamelan is designed for the management of visible pigmentation concerns, including melasma. However, melasma is a complex condition that can recur or fluctuate due to factors such as UV exposure and hormonal influences. Ongoing management is often required, and results cannot be guaranteed.

Unlike a conventional single-session chemical peel, Dermamelan is a structured depigmentation programme involving professional assessment, an in-clinic treatment phase and ongoing homecare. The preparation and maintenance stages are important components of the overall approach.

Yes. Pelle requires a prior skin analysis and preparation protocol before Dermamelan treatment. This allows your practitioner to assess your pigmentation, identify relevant risk factors and determine whether the programme is appropriate.

Visible redness, tightness, dryness, sensitivity and peeling may occur following treatment. The severity and duration vary, and some individuals may experience more pronounced reactions. Your practitioner will explain what to expect and provide detailed recovery instructions.

Changes in the appearance of pigmentation generally develop progressively rather than immediately. The timeline varies according to your pigmentation concern, skin response and adherence to the prescribed programme. Your practitioner will discuss realistic expectations during consultation.

Dermamelan may be considered for a range of skin tones, but individual assessment is essential. Skin type, pigmentation history, sensitivity and the risk of post-inflammatory pigmentation must all be considered before treatment.

Pigmentation can recur, particularly when influenced by ongoing factors such as UV exposure, hormonal changes and individual skin characteristics. Consistent sun protection, appropriate skincare and maintenance advice are important for long-term management.

Dermamelan is priced at $2,000 at Pelle. A prior skin analysis and preparation protocol are required. Your practitioner will confirm the treatment process, product inclusions and any additional costs before you proceed.
