Dr. Grittern ist emphatisch und einfühlsam und arbeitet zudem professionell. Sie besitzt eine hohe Expertise und sie legt großen Wert auf eine individuelle Beratung. Auch das Team super.
Die beste Dermatologin in Düsseldorf :-)

Auch gut finde ich, dass man den Gutschein sowohl in der Dermatologie & Laser Center als auch in ihrem Kosmetikinstitut einlösen kann. So kann man sich auch spontan entscheiden und muss sich nicht vorher festlegen.

Frau Dr. Kröpfl ist eine Offenbarung für mich. Jahrelang habe ich als Erwachsener mit unreiner Haut und Ekzemen gequält, die ich alleine oder mit Hilfe meiner ‘normalen’ Hautärzte nicht in den Griff bekommen habe. Die Behandlungen sind vielleicht kostspielig, aber in jedem Fall ihr Geld wert. Ich fühle mich absolut kompetent beraten und sehr wohl in dieser Praxis.

Ich war bisher nur zu einem Beratungsgespräch bei Frau Dr. Kröpfl. Ich bin sehr angetan von der Kompetenz, Transparenz und Klarheit.
Es werden keine unrealistischen Ergebnisse angepriesen und klare Informationen vermittelt.
Dankeschön.

Important information about pigmentation spot removal with Cosmelan in Düsseldorf

What are Pigment spots?

Pigment spots are darker skin discolorations caused by excessive production of the pigment melanin. This hyperpigmentation can have various causes: UV radiation, hormonal fluctuations during pregnancy or menopause, skin injuries, or certain medications. The most common forms are age spots, Melasma, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Hyperpigmentation on the face is often particularly bothersome, as it is clearly visible and makes the skin appearance appear uneven. These discolorations can vary in size and intensity and can affect anyone.

How does pigment spots removal with Cosmelan work?

The Cosmelan system is based on a multi-stage depigmentation process that regulates Melanin production and reduces existing pigment accumulations. The procedure combines various active ingredients such as kojic acid, arbutin, azelaic acid, and other depigmenting substances.

The treatment is carried out in two phases: First, an intensive depigmentation mask is applied in our practice and left on for several hours. This mask contains high concentrations of active ingredients that penetrate deep into the skin and inhibit melanin production. The second phase consists of home care with specially developed products that support the depigmentation process over several months.

Cosmelan pigment spots removal works on both superficial and deeper pigments and can successfully treat even stubborn hyperpigmentation.

How does pigment spots removal with Cosmelan at Skinthetics work?

Preparation for treatment

Before removing pigment spots with Cosmelan, we conduct a detailed consultation at our Skinthetics practice. Dr. Lucija Grittern analyzes your individual skin type and assesses the type and severity of your hyperpigmentation. This thorough skin analysis is crucial for the success of the treatment.

Our experienced team will explain the treatment process to you in detail and answer all your questions. You will receive detailed instructions for preparation and follow-up care to ensure optimal result.

Performing the treatment

The actual Cosmelan treatment begins with thorough skin cleansing and preparation of the areas to be treated.  Dr. Lucija Grittern's team  applies the intensive depigmentation mask evenly to the affected areas of skin. This mask contains a high concentration of active ingredients that specifically target Hyperpigmentation.

Depending on skin type and degree of pigmentation, the mask is left on for between six and eight hours. During this time, you can leave our practice and go about your usual activities. The treatment is generally painless, with only a slight feeling of tightness or increased warmth possibly occurring.

After the prescribed application time, remove the mask at home according to our detailed instructions. In the first few days, you will notice peeling of the top skin layer, which is a normal and desirable part of the healing process.

Aftercare

Aftercare is a crucial part of the Cosmelan procedure and lasts for several months. We will provide you with a special home care kit containing coordinated products that support the depigmentation process and provide optimal care for your skin.

Consistent sun protection is essential in the first few weeks after treatment. We recommend daily use of a sun protection factor of at least 50+. Regular use of the home care products ensures continuous regulation of melanin production.

During the aftercare phase, we conduct regular check-ups to monitor the healing process and adjust the care routine if necessary. Our team is always available to answer your questions and accompany you on your journey to an even, radiant Skin appearance.
