Melasmahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melasma
Melasma je tamna ili tamna boja kože lica. Smatra se da je melazma uzrokovana izlaganjem suncu, genetskom predispozicijom, hormonskim promjenama i iritacijom kože. Iako može zahvatiti bilo koga, posebno je česta kod žena, posebno trudnica i onih koje uzimaju kontraceptivna sredstva ili lijekove za zamjenu hormona.

Melazma se ne može riješiti laserskim tretmanom u određenom vremenskom periodu, jer je to bolest u kojoj se pigment kontinuirano proizvodi. Tranxenemic kiselina pomaže poboljšanju u smanjenju pigmentacije.

Treatment
U nekim zemljama (npr. Japan, Koreja), oralna traneksamična kiselina je dostupna u slobodnoj prodaji i efikasna je. Krema za melazmu s traneksamskom kiselinom i azelainskom kiselinom može djelomično pomoći.
Hidrokinon se može koristiti lokalno za liječenje hiperpigmentacije, ali FDA je zaustavila OTC proizvode koji sadrže hidrokinon od 2020.

    Tranexamic acid is a novel treatment option for melasma; however, there is no consensus on its use. This systematic review searched major databases for relevant publications to March 2016. Eleven studies with 667 participants were included. Pooled data from tranexamic acid-only observational studies with pre- and post-treatment Melasma Area and Severity Index (MASI) showed a decrease of 1.60 in MASI after treat?ment with tranexamic acid. The addition of tranexamic acid to routine treatment modalities resulted in a further decrease in MASI of 0.94. These results support the efficacy and safety of tranexamic acid, either alone or as an adjuvant to routine treatment modalities for melasma.
     The Low-Fluence Q-Switched Nd:YAG Laser Treatment for Melasma: A Systematic Review 35888655 
    NIH
    Nedavno je low-fluence Q-switched Nd:YAG (LFQSNY) laser postao popularan za liječenje melazme, posebno u Aziji. Sumiranje različitih studija bilo je izazovno, ali LFQSNY izgleda općenito djelotvoran i siguran za melazmu u poređenju s tradicionalnim terapijama. Međutim, neki slučajevi pjegave hipopigmentacije prijavljeni su kao nuspojava LFQSNY, vjerojatno zbog visoke energije lasera. Agresivna upotreba LFQSNY također može dovesti do hiperpigmentacije zbog upale, posebno kod tamnijih tonova kože.
    Recently, the low-fluence Q-switched Nd:YAG laser (LFQSNY) has been widely used for treating melasma, especially in Asia. It was hard to summarize the heterogenous studies, but LFQSNY appeared to be a generally effective and safe treatment for melasma considering the results of previous conventional therapies. However, mottled hypopigmentation has been occasionally reported to develop and persist as an adverse event of LFQSNY, which may be associated with the high accumulated laser energy. When used aggressively, even LFQSNY can induce hyperpigmentation via unwanted inflammation, especially in darker skin.
