What Is Complexion Code Plus?
Complexion Code Plus is a medical-grade depigmentation system that works beyond the surface to correct uneven pigmentation. Unlike many treatments that focus only on exfoliating the top layer of skin, Complexion Code Plus stops the pigment production cycle at its source while renewing skin from within.
Its three core actions make it stand out:
- Reduce existing pigmentation for visible lightening.
- Prevent future melanin overproduction by blocking pigment triggers.
- Stimulate skin renewal for smoother texture and improved overall tone.
This system uses SRX TriFusion™ Technology to deliver active ingredients deep into the skin for maximum effect. Each protocol is tailored to your pigmentation type, skin sensitivity, and desired results, making it a truly personalized solution.
How Complexion Code Plus Works
The secret behind Complexion Code Plus is its SRX TriFusion™ Technology — a delivery method that combines biomimetic nanosomes and precision dendrimers to carry ingredients deeper than standard topical treatments can reach.
These clinically proven ingredients work together to target multiple pathways of pigmentation and skin aging:
Tranexamic Acid: Blocks pigment pathways triggered by hormones or inflammation, making it highly effective for melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Kojic Acid: Inhibits tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin production, helping to prevent new dark spots.
Retinyl Propionate: A gentle retinoid derivative that accelerates cell turnover without the irritation common to stronger retinoids.
Azelaic, Mandelic, and Ferulic Acids: Brighten skin, promote gentle exfoliation, and offer antioxidant protection against environmental damage.
By combining these active ingredients, Complexion Code Plus not only fades discoloration but also improves texture, softens fine lines, and supports collagen production for long-term skin health.
Key Benefits
Choosing Complexion Code Plus at Elegance Aesthetics, Roland Park offers benefits you can see and feel:
- A brighter, more even complexion.
- Significant reduction in stubborn pigmentation.
- Safe for all skin tones, including deeper complexions prone to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
- Noticeable results within 30–45 days of treatment.
- Minimal downtime compared to traditional deep chemical peels.
- Boosted collagen production for smoother, firmer skin.
- Ongoing pigment prevention when combined with the at-home protocol.
Who Is an Ideal Candidate?
This treatment is ideal for anyone struggling with persistent hyperpigmentation that has not improved with standard treatments. It works for:
- Melasma from hormonal changes or pregnancy.
- Sun spots and freckles from UV exposure.
- Discoloration from acne scars or past injuries.
- Uneven tone caused by a combination of pigmentation issues.
You may need to postpone or avoid treatment if you are:
- Pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Experiencing an active skin infection or open wounds in the treatment area.
- Allergic or sensitive to chemical peel ingredients.
- Currently taking isotretinoin or have taken it within the past 6–12 months.
How It Compares to Traditional Chemical Peels
Traditional chemical peels typically use a single acid, like glycolic, to exfoliate the skin’s surface. While they can brighten and smooth, their results may be short-lived for deep or hormonally driven pigmentation, and they can carry a higher risk of irritation, especially for darker skin tones.
Complexion Code Plus is different:
- Multi-ingredient approach targets pigment production, not just surface cells.
- Deeper action with advanced delivery technology.
- Lower sensitivity risk, making it safe for all Fitzpatrick types.
- At-home maintenance to sustain and build on in-office results.
This makes it a better choice for stubborn, recurring pigmentation issues that need more than temporary brightening.
Step-by-Step Treatment Process
Pre-Treatment Preparation
To ensure the best results and minimize side effects, we’ll provide instructions to follow before your appointment:
- Discontinue retinoids, alpha and beta hydroxy acids (glycolic, salicylic, lactic), vitamin C serums, and prescription topicals like tretinoin for 3–7 days.
- Avoid tanning or prolonged sun exposure.
- Use Hydra Gel Cleanser and Moisturizer Code Plus to keep skin calm and balanced.
In-Office Application
- Consultation & Assessment: We’ll evaluate your Fitzpatrick skin type, pigmentation depth, and overall skin condition.
- Cleansing & Degreasing: Prepares skin for even mask penetration.
- First Layer: A thin mask layer is applied for about 20 minutes to check for sensitivity.
- Second Layer: A thicker layer is applied to areas with more pronounced pigmentation.
- Processing Time: The mask remains on your skin for 4–5 hours for maximum pigment suppression.
You’ll be instructed on how and when to remove the mask at home.
Post-Treatment Care
- Cleanse morning and night with Hydra Gel Cleanser.
- Apply Moisturizer Code Plus as often as needed to reduce dryness or tightness.
- Wear Total Code Protection SPF 50+, reapplying every 3 hours during daylight.
- Avoid picking at peeling skin to prevent scarring or uneven healing.
Expected Results & Timeline
Week 1: Skin appears brighter, tone more even.
Weeks 2–4: Noticeable fading of dark spots, smoother texture.
Day 30–45: Full visible results for most patients, with significant pigment reduction and improved skin quality.
With consistent at-home care, your skin will continue to improve, and results can be maintained long-term.
Side Effects & Recovery
Complexion Code Plus has minimal downtime compared to aggressive peels, but mild effects are expected as part of the renewal process:
- Peeling begins around day 2 and decreases in intensity over time.
- Temporary redness, dryness, tightness, or mild itching may occur.
- Avoid heat, intense exercise, and direct sunlight until peeling subsides.
These reactions indicate the treatment is working and typically resolve without intervention.

Frequently Asked Questions
When will I see results from Complexion Code Plus?

What products should I stop using before treatment?
Avoid retinoids, alpha and beta hydroxy acids, vitamin C serums, and prescription topicals like tretinoin for 3–7 days. These can increase skin sensitivity.

How long do results last?
With proper skincare and sun protection, results can be long-lasting. Maintenance treatments may be recommended yearly.
Can it be combined with other treatments?
Yes — it can complement microneedling, light-based therapies, and certain facials. We’ll advise on the best timeline.
Will one treatment be enough?
Many see significant improvement after one cycle, but severe cases may benefit from additional treatments.
