Extended technical information

BCN Melano has been formulated for professional cosmetic protocols aimed at the aesthetic treatment of visible hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone. The manufacturer's technical documentation presents a combination of five active ingredients selected for their depigmenting, antioxidant and superficial renewal action.

Glutathione, kojic acid and vitamin C form the depigmenting and antioxidant core of the product. They are combined with glycolic acid, which supports superficial cosmetic renewal and the penetration of other actives, and citric acid, which reinforces the antioxidant profile of the formula and contributes to the overall stability of the preparation.

The manufacturer positions BCN Melano within protocols aimed at correcting the appearance of age spots, visible hyperpigmentation, post-acne marks and dull skin or skin with visible signs of photoageing. The final cosmetic objective is to promote skin that looks more even, radiant and visually improved.

Cosmetic action of the main actives

Glutathione

Glutathione is presented in high concentration and, together with vitamin C, reinforces the antioxidant profile of the product. According to the technical documentation, it acts as a detoxifying agent and as a cosmetic inhibitor of visible melanin synthesis, making it a key component in professional depigmenting protocols.

Kojic acid

Kojic acid is described as a powerful inhibitor of melanin production and one of the benchmark actives in depigmenting cosmetics. The manufacturer highlights its cosmetic brightening effect, good tolerance and usefulness in promoting a more even tone and skin with greater visible radiance.

Glycolic acid

Glycolic acid is the most widely used AHA within the formulation and is included for its superficial exfoliating action. The technical documentation states that it helps reduce the stratum corneum barrier, increases the penetration of other topical agents and improves the overall appearance of the skin by promoting a smoother, renewed surface.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C is incorporated as an effective antioxidant to neutralise free radicals, support the visible inhibition of melanin and promote collagen synthesis. The manufacturer also links it to cosmetic care for sun-damaged skin and visible support for brighter, more even-looking skin.

Citric acid

Citric acid is a tricarboxylic organic acid used in cosmetics for its antioxidant and antimicrobial action. Within BCN Melano, it contributes to the stability and overall cosmetic result of the formula, reinforcing the antioxidant profile of the preparation.
