This study tests whether a medicine called tranexamic acid, taken as a pill or used on the skin, can help fade melasma in women with darker skin types. It aims to find a safe way to improve skin color and is relevant to those looking for new melasma treatment options. The trial compares the treatment to another study treatment without medicine. Participation is open to women aged 30 to 60 with darker skin tones who are not pregnant and are not using certain other skin or hormone treatments.

This trial tests two injectable treatments for melasma (dark patches on the face): platelet-rich fibrin, which uses your own blood cells to promote healing, and tranexamic acid, a medication that may reduce pigmentation. The study will compare which works better for women with mild to moderate melasma.
This study tests whether adding an oral medicine (tranexamic acid) to a standard triple cream works better for melasma than the cream alone. It may help lighten dark patches on your skin if you have the right type of melasma.
This study compares two treatments for melasma: injecting tranexamic acid into the skin versus applying a mandelic acid facial peel. The goal is to see which one works better at lightening the dark patches on your face.
