Therapy of skin pigmentation disorders: tranexamic acid and cysteamine
Methods of treatment of hyperpigmentation
In this article, we will consider new protocols of therapy using tranexamic acid and cysteamine, which demonstrate high efficiency and safety.
Violation of skin pigmentation is one of the most common and at the same time difficult problems faced by dermatologists and cosmetologists. Despite the wide arsenal of treatment methods, such as chemical peels, laser therapy and the use of retinoids, the question of effective and safe treatment of pigmentation remains relevant.
Traditional methods of treating hyperpigmentation include chemical peels, laser therapy, the use of retinol and hydroquinone-based products, and triple therapy (hydroquinone + retinol + steroids). These methods have their advantages, such as a long experience of use, predictable results and a low risk of serious complications. However, they also have significant drawbacks: side effects, increased photosensitivity, seasonality of use, and a high risk of relapse.
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), pregnancy melasma, recurrent pigmentation on the background of ultraviolet damage, melasma in patients of Asian origin, periorbital hyperpigmentation and pigmentation of intimate areas can be distinguished among the most difficult types of pigmentation to treat. These types of pigmentation often require a long-term and complex approach to treatment.
