This trial tests a microneedling technique combined with three topical medications (metformin, tranexamic acid, and a modified Kligman's formula) to treat melasma, a common skin condition causing dark patches. The goal is to see if this approach safely and effectively reduces melasma in eligible women.
This study tests if adding MelaB3 serum to a 35% glycolic acid peel works better than the peel alone for different types of dark skin patches (like melasma, dark marks after acne, or sun spots). Participants will have several treatments and be monitored for about a few months.
This study compares a metformin cream to a standard treatment (Kligman's regimen) for reducing melasma, a common skin condition causing dark patches on the face. It aims to find which treatment is more effective for women with this condition.
This trial compares a new cosmetic serum to a standard treatment (4% hydroquinone) for facial melasma over 84 days. It may help if you have mild to moderate melasma and are looking for a gentler alternative.
