One of the most effective depigmentation systems available — reducing melanin to even out the most stubborn pigmentation.
What is Cosmelan®, and how does it work?
Cosmelan® is a professional depigmentation treatment designed to reduce and eliminate dark spots, melasma and other forms of hyperpigmentation. It works by inhibiting the production of melanin — the pigment responsible for skin colour — lightening dark areas and evening out overall skin tone. It's known for being both highly effective and well tolerated across a wide range of skin tones.
Cosmelan® is a two-phase system. First, a professional-grade Cosmelan® 1 mask — containing azelaic acid, kojic acid, phytic acid and ascorbic acid — is applied in clinic to inhibit melanin and exfoliate. You then continue at home with Cosmelan® 2 maintenance cream, which prolongs results and helps prevent pigmentation returning. At Rejuvena, every Cosmelan journey is guided by a GMC-registered GP with a special interest in dermatology, because pigmentation has many causes that should be assessed first.
Who treats your Cosmelan at Rejuvena
Your Cosmelan depigmentation programme is led by Dr Nick (GMC 6072251), our doctor here in Bedford, working alongside skin therapist Lana. Together they assess your pigmentation, tailor the peel and guide you through aftercare, so treatment for melasma and sun damage is always carried out safely and expertly.

During
The Cosmelan® 1 mask is applied in clinic. You'll wear it for the advised time (often 8–12 hours) and remove it at home, then begin your maintenance routine.
