At MD Laser Clinic, we’re committed to providing advanced skincare solutions that deliver real results. One of our favorite lines for treating pigmentation and sun damage—especially in preparation for or recovery after in-clinic treatments—is the DermaQuest MelaQuest range, featuring the powerful skin-brightening ingredient cysteamine.
What is DermaQuest MelaQuest?
The MelaQuest system by DermaQuest is a cutting-edge pigmentation protocol designed to reduce the appearance of:
Melasma
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH)
Sun-induced pigmentation
Uneven skin tone
The system features two key products:
MelaQuest Cysteamine Serum
MelaQuest Cysteamine Cream
Both are formulated with cysteamine, a potent, naturally occurring antioxidant that helps reduce melanin production without the irritation often associated with hydroquinone or retinoids.
Why Cysteamine?
Cysteamine has emerged as a gold-standard topical agent for pigmentation due to its:
Antioxidant properties: Helps neutralize free radicals and prevent further pigment formation.
Skin-lightening effects: Reduces the appearance of dark spots and uneven tone.
Non-irritating profile: Safe for sensitive skin and long-term use.
This makes it ideal for pre-treatment priming and post-procedure recovery, especially after treatments like:
Chemical peels
Laser pigmentation removal
Plexr Plasma Treatments and Facials
Intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy
Pre-Treatment: Preparing the Skin
Using MelaQuest products before your in-clinic treatment helps:
Suppress melanin activity to prevent rebound pigmentation.
Create a balanced skin environment that promotes better treatment outcomes.
Minimize inflammation, reducing the risk of post-treatment complications.
We typically recommend starting the MelaQuest Cysteamine Serum or Cream 2-3 weeks prior to your treatment for optimal results.
Post-Treatment: Supporting Recovery
After any pigment-targeting treatment, your skin can be more vulnerable to inflammation and UV damage, which can lead to rebound pigmentation. This is where MelaQuest shines.
Soothes post-procedure inflammation
Maintains and enhances treatment results
Strengthens the skin’s barrier while continuing to fade residual pigmentation
Use it consistently as directed by your skincare specialist for best results.
Ideal for Sun Damage and Ongoing Maintenance
Even if you’re not undergoing a treatment, MelaQuest is an excellent standalone option for anyone dealing with:
Sun spots and freckles
Uneven tone due to past UV exposure
Long-term hyperpigmentation concerns
It’s a gentle yet powerful addition to your routine, especially when combined with daily SPF and antioxidant-rich skincare.
