Tretinoin 1% has also been used as a chemical peeling agent [22,23]. The efficacy of tretinoin peels was compared with glycolic acid peels in the treatment of melasma in dark skinned patients [23]. In a split face study of ten Indian women, 1% tretinoin was applied to one half of the face, while 70% glycolic acid was applied to the opposite side. Peels were performed weekly. Significant improvement occurred on both sides as assessed by photographs and a Modi-... [Pg.144]

It is very difficult to treat melasma. Better results are obtained if between chemical peeling treatments, patients apply topical depigment-ing agents. The synergic action of the two treatments bleaches the skin and reduces melanin formation. [Pg.153]

Done for the right indication and chosen for the correct patient, chemical peeling remains as an alternative modality for patients with melasma. It becomes more effective when combined with medical therapy since the peels mechanically remove (he melanin while topical medications inhibit melanocytes or melanogenesis. [Pg.130]

Tretinoin may also be used as pretreattnent prior to glycolic acid chemical peeling [301]. Among a group of 20 female patients with melasma, marked improvement was noted [311]. [Pg.172]

Lactic acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid not previously utilized in chemical peeling for melasma In a small group of 24 patients, lactic acid was found to be an efficacious and safe peeling agent for melasma treatment and was as effective as Jessner s solution [323]. In a group of seven Indian patients (Fitzpatrick skin types IV-V) treated with lactic acid peeling for superficial acne scarring, improvement was noted [324]. [Pg.173]
