How does it work?
A Masque is applied during the office visit where the nurse compounds the peel freshly at time of dispensing to ensure its potency and reliability.  The masque is removed by the patient after the required length of time according to skin type.  Patients leave office with masque on their face.   Patients are responsible for adhering to an easy-to-follow, but strict, at-home regimen involving the application of several Melanage products for one week following masque application.

What areas can be treated?
All skin areas can be treated.

How many treatments will I need?
Only one treatment is initially recommended but it can be repeated three to four months following first treatment if necessary.

What results can I expect?
Results will vary but generally patients will see a significant improvement of the appearance of pigmented areas.  Dark spots will lighten and skin texture and tone will improve.  Although most patients experience peeling of their skin, not every patient will notice this.  If you do not notice actual peeling, please know that you are still receiving all the benefits of the Melanage Peel Treatment, such as: stimulation of collagen production, improvement of skin tone and texture, and diminishment of fine lines and pigmentation.  Proper skin evaluation by your doctor prior to your peel is important and will help predict the outcome of your peel.
