Melasma Peel

Melasma Peel with ME LINE

Struggling with persistent melasma or stubborn hyperpigmentation that won’t respond to other treatments? Our clinic is proud to offer the ME LINE Melasma Peel, an innovative treatment from the first and only brand specialising in all types of hyperpigmentation. This advanced protocol uses a process of ‘controlled chemical dermabrasion’ to lift pigmentation, even out skin tone, and restore a clear, radiant complexion.

How Does the ME LINE Melasma Peel Work? The ME LINE protocol is a comprehensive in-clinic and at-home treatment plan designed to tackle pigmentation at its source.

  • Consultation & Skin Preparation: The process begins with a thorough consultation and skin analysis. To achieve the best results, you will be required to use specific ME LINE homecare products to prepare your skin before the first in-clinic peel.

  • Professional Cleansing & Degreasing: In the clinic, your skin is meticulously cleansed and degreased. This crucial step ensures that the active ingredients of the peel can penetrate the skin uniformly and effectively.

  • Application of the ME LINE Peel: The specialised ME LINE professional peel is applied to the skin. Its innovative formula contains a carefully balanced blend of active ingredients designed to lift existing pigment, inhibit tyrosinase enzyme activity (which produces new melanin), and promote rapid cell turnover.

  • Mandatory Homecare Protocol: A crucial part of the ME LINE treatment is the strict homecare routine. You will be provided with a complete set of specialist products to use at home. This continues the depigmenting process, controls melanin production, and protects your skin to ensure long-lasting results.

What Areas Can Be Treated? The ME LINE Peel is highly effective for treating hyperpigmentation on areas most affected by sun exposure and hormonal changes. This treatment can be applied to:

  • Face (for melasma, chloasma, sun damage, and post-acne marks)

  • Neck and Décolletage (to address sun damage and uneven tone)

  • Hands (to reduce age spots and signs of sun damage)

What Can I Expect During the Procedure?

The in-clinic peel application typically lasts between 30 to 45 minutes. Clients may experience a tingling, itching, or warming sensation as the peel is applied. This is a normal response and indicates the active ingredients are working. The sensation subsides once the peel is removed or neutralised.

When Will I See Results, and How Long Do They Last?

To achieve incredible, long-lasting results, a course of 2-3 peels spaced one month apart is required. While initial improvements may be visible after the first peel, the most significant reduction in pigmentation occurs throughout the full course and with diligent, daily use of the prescribed ME LINE homecare products.

Who Is an Ideal Candidate for the ME LINE Peel?

This treatment is ideal for individuals suffering from melasma, chloasma (the ‘mask of pregnancy’), post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), sun damage, and other stubborn pigmentary disorders. It is a highly effective solution for all skin phototypes, especially those with darker skin tones who are more susceptible to pigmentation.

Are There Any Side Effects?

Following the peel, it is normal to experience redness, tightness, and dryness for a few days. Visible peeling or flaking of the skin typically begins around day 2-3 and can last for several days. This is an expected and positive sign that the skin is renewing itself. The mandatory homecare products are designed to manage these effects and support the healing process.

Can This Treatment Be Combined with Other Treatments?

The ME LINE protocol is a comprehensive and intensive treatment plan. During the course of your peels, other intensive treatments like microneedling or lasers should be avoided on the treated area. However, LED Light Therapy can be used between sessions to support skin healing. Once your course is complete, other treatments can be incorporated as part of a maintenance plan.

Is There Any Downtime?

Yes, there is a period of social downtime associated with this peel. You should expect 3-7 days of visible redness, dryness, and skin peeling. This is a necessary part of the ‘controlled chemical dermabrasion’ process required to achieve a significant reduction in pigmentation. Planning for this downtime is recommended.
