Mela 'Aura Face and body unifying treatments

Skin colour: why and how?

Melanocytes, which synthesize melanin, are responsible for our skin colour. While the number of these melanocytes is the same for everyone, the nature and size of the pigment grains differ. This is what causes differences in skin colour. For example, pigment grains are larger and denser in black skin.

Darker skin can appear uneven, a phenomenon usually caused by the presence of melanin in the dermis and epidermis. When this skin is wounded or irritated, melanin is produced randomly, causing spots or scars that are more or less visible and unsightly.

If aggressive, detergent cleansing products and chlorinated hard water are used in skin care, these can irritate the skin, damage the skin barrier and cause dark spots to appear.  This is called  dyschromia.

MELA'AURA is the first dermo-cosmetic skincare range

designed and manufactured by a pharmaceutical laboratory, specifically for people with darker skin. It gives dermatologists an adapted response to factors such as dryness and dyschromia affecting the skin and hair.  It has been available to dermatologists in France since 1998.

In line with its vocation as a pharmaceutical laboratory, CS Dermatologie only markets its MELA'AURA range in pharmacies and specialized drugstores in France.  The Mela 'Aura range is starting to be available outside France and contact details are shown below if you have any questions about the range.

Why is Mela 'Aura different?IR

The Mela 'Aura range was developed by the highly innovative CS Dermatologie laboratories. The cosmetic range was designed to address the need for an even skin tone in a safe manner. The use of depigmenting products often triggers dermatological problems such as mycoses, burns, the appearance of body hair, etc. To tackle these factors, the CS Dermatologie laboratories drew on their 15 years of experience in dermatology to manufacture the products of the MELA'AURA range, in accordance with the norms of the pharmaceutical industry: safety, comfort and skin tolerance included.
