Brief Summary:
This prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled study evaluated the synergistic effects of 30% salicylic acid (SA) chemical peels and topical 10% nicotinamide (NAM) in 56 patients with moderate-to-severe melasma. Participants were divided into four groups: placebo control, SA peels alone (every 2 weeks for 8 sessions), NAM cream alone (twice daily for 16 weeks), and combination therapy (SA+NAM). The investigators investigated the efficacy and safety of 30%SA chemical peeling combined with 10% NAM.
Detailed Description:
Background:Melasma is a common skin disease manifested as brown patches with symmetrical distribution and irregular boundaries. Chemical peeling with salicylic acid (SA) is widely used in the treatment of melasma. Nicotinamide (NAM) is a common whitening agent and has a good effect in the treatment of melasma. In the present study, the investigators investigated the efficacy and safety of 30%SA chemical peeling combined with 10% NAM.
Methods: 56 moderate-to-severe melasma patients were enrolled and randomly assigned into the control group, SA group, NAM group, and SA+NAM group. SA treatment was given at an interval of 2 weeks for 8 treatment sessions (week 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14). NAM was applied twice a day for 16w. Photos, mMASI score, and skin indices (TEWL, skin hydration, melanin index, erythema index, red areas score, and UV spots score) were assessed at 0, 2, 4, 6, 8,10,12, and 14 weeks. Side effects, efficacy and satisfactory scores were recorded.
Limitations: Retrospective single-center design and small sample size.
