Facial hyperpigmentation—including melasma (chloasma), sun spots, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), and macular amyloidosis—is driven by hyperactive melanocytes depositing excess melanin across the epidermis and dermis. In Chennai, dermatologists use multi-modal protocols that suppress melanin synthesis while clearing existing pigment.

Therapies combine gold-standard prescription creams (triple combination modified Kligman’s formulas, azelaic acid, kojic acid, cysteamine), oral tranexamic acid, intensive Cosmelan depigmenting masks, and low-fluence Q-switched laser toning.

Strict adherence to broad-spectrum tinted physical sunscreen (iron oxide + SPF 50+) is mandatory. Specialist consultations range between around ₹500.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does melasma often return after fading in Chennai?

Melasma is a chronic, vascular-pigmentary condition triggered by UV light, visible blue light, heat, and female hormones. Ongoing photoprotection and maintenance therapy are essential to prevent recurrences.

What makes the Cosmelan peel so effective for resistant pigmentation?

Cosmelan comprehensively blocks the enzyme tyrosinase while accelerating epidermal cell turnover, achieving up to 90% reduction in dark patches within 3 to 6 weeks.

How does oral tranexamic acid help melasma?

Low-dose oral tranexamic acid inhibits the plasminogen/plasmin pathway, reducing UV-induced melanocyte activation and underlying dermal micro-vascular inflammation.
