With Dermalogica PRO’s Melanopro Peel System, you can now target all forms of hyperpigmentation on all skin tones, with minimal patient downtime, in less than six weeks.

Melanopro Peel System is an innovative two-phase, clinical-strength peel program designed to target and fade all forms of hyperpigmentation in less than six weeks.

A key differentiating factor is that Melanopro offers a reliable and effective option for all skin tones, including patients with darker Fitzpatrick types who are more prone to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). Unlike many other treatments that carry a higher risk of adverse reactions for darker skin tones, Melanopro offers visible results without compromising skin safety, making it ideal for a broader range of clients.

Packed with a potent blend of ingredients, including azelaic acid, glycolic acid, lactic acid, salicylic acid, tranexamic acid, retinol, phytic acid and niacinamide, the Melanopro Peel system is designed to brighten skin and fade dark spots while helping prevent future pigmentation issues. Clients begin with an in-clinic peel, followed by an at-home regimen that continues the transformation.

One of the major advantages of the Melanopro Peel System is its ability to deliver noticeable results within a short timeframe – within six weeks – while requiring minimal downtime. Skin peeling typically occurs between days 3 and 7, after which clients experience progressive improvement in skin tone and texture.

Dermalogica PRO’s full suite of professional formulas are designed for use alongside medical device technology. Melanopro can be used as a standalone treatment for all forms of hyperpigmentation, or in synergy with chemical peels, lasers, IPL, microneedling and dermaplaning to maximise overall outcomes.

Not only does Melanopro elevate hyperpigmentation treatment offerings, but it’s also a highly profitable addition to any practice. With its competitive pricing, Melanopro makes high- quality depigmentation treatments accessible to a wider range of clients. This affordability, and the results achieved, promotes higher client retention and satisfaction.

Clinical study results

The Melanopro Peel System demonstrates powerful results in a six-week clinical study*, with significant improvements in dark spots, skin brightness and texture.

Dark spot reduction: After six weeks, clients saw a 9.7% reduction in dark spot number and a 14.4% reduction in dark spot area. Skin homogeneity between dark spots and normal areas improved by 9.8%, while contrast was reduced by 9.2%.

Skin brightness: The system significantly increased specular brightness by 28.6% and reduced diffuse brightness by 35.1%.

Texture and roughness: Surface roughness parameters (Stm, Sa, Sq) reduced by 14.1%, 12.9% and 13.0%, respectively, indicating a smoother skin surface.

Why did you decide to offer the Melanopro Peel System in your clinic?

The decision to offer the Melanopro Peel System was driven by its scientifically-backed formulation, minimal downtime and fast recovery. It’s an attractive option for patients seeking effective results without significant disruption to their daily routines and its compatibility with other advanced treatments make it a valuable addition to our offerings. Additionally, when considering the duration and benefits of the included aftercare, the treatment proves to be cost-effective.

What are the key benefits of Melanopro, and how does it stand out from other pigmentation treatments?

I believe that the Melanopro Peel offers one of the leading home skin rejuvenation treatments available. It surpasses everything else I’ve used, including prescription retinoids.

Unlike stronger peels, which require 7-14 days of recovery, Melanopro offers a gentler treatment with just 2-3 days of mild peeling. Suitable for all skin types and free from hydroquinone, this peel can reduce pigmentation by up to 50%, providing a convenient option for patients seeking improved skin tone and clarity with minimal downtime. Another advantage is that it is suitable for all Fitzpatrick skin types.

How do you use Melanopro as part of a combination treatment?

Combining the Melanopro Peel with pico laser treatments can be very effective for addressing pigmentation. Pico lasers deliver ultra-short pulses that break down pigment in the skin, allowing for targeted treatment of hyperpigmentation. When used in combination with Melanopro, the laser can disrupt deeper pigment deposits while the peel addresses surface-level pigmentation, enhances cellular turnover and reduces melanin production.

A common protocol involves performing a pico laser treatment first to fragment the pigment. Then, once the skin has had time to recover (typically about one to two weeks, depending on the skin’s reaction), the Melanopro Peel can be applied.

How would you describe the patient experience with Melanopro?

One of our favourite things about the Melanopro Peel is that it is designed with patient comfort and minimal downtime in mind. Most patients experience little to no discomfort during the treatment. After the peel, there may be slight redness or mild dryness, but these effects generally subside within a few hours to a day. Overall, recovery time is minimal, and patients can typically resume normal activities within 24 to 48 hours.

What advice would you give to clinic owners considering Melanopro?

This is one of the standout formulations on the market aimed at improving skin quality, whilst having skin brightening effects.

We employ the Melanopro Peel System in two scenarios: first, as a post-procedure treatment to amplify and maintain results, typically after a pigment-correcting laser program; and second, as an in-clinic peel followed by home- use skincare for busy clients who want to improve their skin texture and take their skincare routine up another notch.
