How Does Meladine Work?

Laser hair removal has provided an effective solution for millions of people looking to rid themselves of unwanted hair. The lasers use the naturally occurring melanin in the hair as a target to selectively disable the hair follicle while leaving surrounding skin structures intact.
However, lighter hair either has too little melanin or the wrong type of melanin to provide an effective target for the laser, so people with white, gray and blond hair have not been suitable candidates for laser hair removal - until now.
The solution is here.
The solution is simple.


It's Meladine™

How Does Meladine Work?

Laser hair removal has provided an effective solution for millions of people looking to rid themselves of unwanted hair. The lasers use the naturally occurring melanin in the hair follicle as a target to selectively disable the follicle while leaving surrounding skin structures intact. However, lighter hair either has too little melanin or the wrong type of melanin to provide an effective target for the laser, so people with white, gray and blond hair have not been suitable candidates for laser hair removal?until now.

When sprayed on the desired area, Meladine's patented liposome delivery system selectively deposits natural melanin directly into the hair follicle without staining surrounding skin. The proprietary liposome molecules are small enough to effectively penetrate the infundibulum, but are not taken up by the bloodstream. The result is temporary melanin-rich follicles, [Figure 1] which allow patients with lighter hair colors to benefit from laser hair removal.Suggested Use

Is Meladine™ a drug?
No. Meladine™ is considered a cosmetic preparation. Meladine™s - ingredients are all-natural, non-toxic and non-irritating to the skin.

Who owns Meladine™? 
Creative Technologies Inc. owns, manufactures and distributes Meladine?.

How is Meladine™ applied?
Meladine? is manufactured in a 4 ounce spray applicator bottle. It is recommended that the patient spray the area to be treated before each laser treatment.  (Please refer to the Suggested Use page for more detail.) 

Does the patient have to apply Meladine™ before EACH visit or just before the first laser treatment?
It is recommended that the patient use Meladine™ prior to each laser hair removal treatment. 

How long must Meladine™ be applied before each laser treatment?
The application regimen will depend on the texture of the hair to be treated. Fine blond or vellus hair will require approximately 14 days of Meladine™ application prior to each laser treatment. Coarse white and gray hair will require up to 4-6 weeks of application prior to each laser treatment.

Can the patient shave immediately before applying Meladine™ or must there be some hair above the skin?
Meladine™ is best absorbed into the hair when it has been shaved.

Is daily shaving absolutely necessary?
It is recommended that the area be shaved daily. If necessary, an alternative to shaving is closely clipping the hair each day.
Will shaving change the color and the texture of the hair?
No. It has been shown that shaving does not change the nature of the hair. Shaving removes the hair from the surface of the skin; it does not affect the follicle or the bodily functions that dictate the nature of the hair. Variables that contribute to the change in color and texture of hair include, hormones, excessive weight gain, age, etc.

What if the patient forgets or misses an application? Must they start over?
It is important that the patient faithfully apply Meladine™ for optimal results. Melanin that has been deposited into the hair follicle will naturally dissipate as the hair grows and falls out. If several applications are missed, the patient may have lost some valuable melanin deposit and may consider extending the application regimen for a number of days.

How long after the application of Meladine™ must the patient wait before
showering?
It is recommended to wait approximately 1 hour after applying Meladine™ before showering, however Meladine™ can be applied immediately after showering. Meladine™ is colorless and dries without any lingering odor.

Can the patient use other creams or lotions in conjunction with Meladine™?
A patient may continue to use her/his normal lotions, creams and/or make-up while applying Meladine™. However, it is recommended that the patient wait approximately 1 hour before applying another topical cosmetic. The only topical applications known to contraindicate Meladine™ are creams that contain bleaching agents designed to lighten hair at the root. When applying Meladine™ in the morning and in the evening, it is important the skin be clean and free of substances that may inhibit absorption.

How long will one bottle last? Under arms, a full back etc.
The amount of Meladine™ used will depend on the type of hair to be treated, the size of the area to be treated and personal preference. Coarse hair will require longer application time than vellus hair, so more Meladine™ will be used. Smaller areas, such as a lip or chin, will require less Meladine™ than larger areas such as a back or legs. Finally, some patients may feel that more is better and may use Meladine™ more liberally when applying. One bottle contains approximately 720 sprays, which may be enough to cover several pre-treatment regimens for a lip or chin, but may only cover one pre-treatment regimen for legs or full back.

Does Meladine™ stain the skin or change the appearance of hair above the surface of the skin?
No. Meladine™ penetrates into the hair follicle itself, it does not remain on the surface of the skin or hair, and therefore does not color or change the appearance of the skin.

Does Meladine™ work the same for everyone?
Although hundreds of doctors across the U.S. are reporting exciting results, there is no guarantee that Meladine™ will obtain the same results for everyone.  Results may vary depending on the patient's adherence to the application and treatment regimen.  Other variables may include density and coarseness of hair, hormonal changes, etc.

How should Meladine™ be stored?
Meladine™ has a shelf life of approximately 24 months unopened (not sprayed). It is recommended that Meladine™ that has been opened be refrigerated between treatments.

As a laser technician, what are the best laser parameters to use when treating patients using Meladine™?
Clinical biopsies have shown that the follicle of a hair treated with Meladine™ is equivalent to that of light brown hair. Therefore, doctors have had the greatest success when they treat Meladine™-applied hair as if it were light brown hair. Of course parameters used for each patient should be determined entirely by the professional opinion of the doctor or laser technician.
