How it works

What it is, and how it works.

The flagship melasma protocol — a retinoid-led, self-neutralising four-acid cream peel. Applied in clinic, worn 4–6 hours, removed at home. For pigment that has resisted everything else.

It leads with Retinol · four-acid to drive retinol and four acids into resistant pigment over a timed, take-home mask. As a medium-depth peel, penetration is controlled by strength and dwell time, so the practitioner sets the intensity to the skin.

Clinical strengths, stated plainly. The actives and their strengths are printed on every label — so you know exactly what you're applying and why.

Protocol

5 steps. Written for the practitioner.

Prep

Cleanse and degrease. Apply prep solution to standardise the surface.

Apply

One to two even coats by brush or gauze. Avoid the orbital and lip margins.

Dwell

Leave on for the timed interval, watching erythema and any frosting.

Neutralise

Apply neutraliser until effervescence stops, then rinse thoroughly.

Aftercare

Soothing barrier cream and broad-spectrum SPF. Sun avoidance 5–7 days.
