OBJECTIVE
In recent years, "laser toning" using low fluence, large spot size, multiple passed Q-switched 1,064 nm Nd:YAG laser has gained much popularity in Asian countries for non-ablative skin rejuvenation and the treatment of melasma. This case series highlights one of the complications
Background: Treating melasma is a challenge due to suboptimal efficacy and recurrence encountered with most modalities. There is inadequate literature regarding the use of lasers for melasma in Indian skin. We compared three modalities SSR (Super Skin Rejuvenation 540 nm), PQSNDY (pixel
BACKGROUND
Jet-M is a device for epidermal peeling and is used to deliver substances by spraying air and microdroplets. Previously, a case was treated with a mixed solution of copper-GHK, oligo-hyaluronic acid, Rhodiola extract, tranexamic acid, and β-glucan. The results showed significant
Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic acid) has many favourable effects on the skin such as antioxidant, anti-aging and whitening effects. Its instability and low permeability limit its pharmaceutical use in cosmetic and dermatological products. Instead, Mg ascorbyl phosphate (MAP), an ascorbic acid derivative, has
BACKGROUND
Skin rejuvenation with intense pulsed light (IPL) is effective for clearing epidermal pigment disorders. Complications are mild and limited to epidermal burns caused by excessive settings. Some patients, however, experience IPL-induced melasma-like hyperpigmentation despite the appearance
Melasma is a benign and chronic hypermelanosis characterized by irregular light brown to dark brown patches of hyperpigmentation on the skin. Oral tranexamic acid (TA) or vitamin C (VC) supplementation has been one treatment choice. TA interferes with keratinocyte-melanocyte Background: The potential efficacy of vascular component-targeted laser has been evaluated for treatment of melasma, which commonly found with the co-existence of telangiectasia.
Objective:
A 47-year-old woman presented with hyperpigmented patches on her upper extremities. The patient had begun using a topical estrogen cream in the affected areas prior to noticing the hyperpigmentation. A diagnosis of melasma secondary to topical estrogen cream was made. While systemic hormones are a
BACKGROUND
A new fractional photothermolysis device is used in our retrospective study to treat melasma in Chinese patients.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the 1927 nm fractional thulium fiber laser in the treatment of melasma in Chinese patients.
METHODS
Eleven melasma patients
BACKGROUND
Fractional laser resurfacing enhances trans-epidermal delivery (TED), however laser penetration depths >250- μm fail to substantively increase drug delivery.
OBJECTIVE
Evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel acoustic pressure wave ultrasound device following fractional ablative Er:YAG
BACKGROUND
Melasma is a common disorder of facial hyperpigmentation among Asian women. Many modalities of treatment are available but none is satisfactory.
OBJECTIVE
This study was undertaken to see if glycolic acid peels are effective and safe in the treatment of melasma and fine facial
BACKGROUND
Melasma is a common cause of facial hyperpigmentation with significant cosmetic deformity. Many modalities of treatment are available, but none is satisfactory.
OBJECTIVE
This study was designed to compare the therapeutic response of melasma in Indian women to glycolic acid (GA 20-35%)
