Summary
Melasma is a common refractory acquired hyperpigmentation of the skin having a serious impact on patients' quality of life. Melasma is challenging to treat. Treatment is often a multimodality approach. Due to the attached psychological and social stress, it is important to counsel patients with melasma adequately about the chronicity of the disease, the importance of photoprotection, and the role of hormones in disease persistence before embarking on therapeutic correction. So in this study, we are exploring the efficacy of oral isotretinoin for treating melasma.
