A case report on melisma

Abstract

Background: Melasma, a common acquired hyperpigmentation disorder, often poses a therapeutic challenge due to its chronic nature and tendency to recur. Method: This case report presents a successful management of melasma using homeopathy in a 48-year-old female patient. The homeopathic approach targeted individualized treatment, addressing the patient's overall health and emotional well-being alongside the skin condition. A detailed case history, the prescribed homeopathic remedy, and the patient's outcomes are discussed. Result: Gradual reduction of MSR score and MONARCH score (+9) together establishes the improvement of the case. Conclusion: The positive result indicates that homeopathy can be a valuable complementary therapy for the treatment of melasma.
