ABSTRACT

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of micro-needle therapy combined with Biotrisse BTS Lumin OX and Biotrisse BTS Brightline in the treatment of melasma.Methods:From September 2019 to June 2021, 80 patients with facial chloasma, aged 28-48 (37.3±4.9) years, were selected from Nanjing Jiangning Guze Clinic. The micro-needle therapy was combined with lumin OX and brightline for 6 times, and the observation time was 120 days. The mMASI score and VISIA photos before and after treatment were used to improve the results.Results:Eighty patients with refractory melasma on the face were treated with micro-needle therapy for 7 times (1 time per week for the first 5 times, and twice a week for the 9th and 10th weeks). The photos before and after treatment were compared and the mMASI of the patients' facial chloasma was compared. The scores were analyzed statistically, and the melasma were improved to varying degrees. Before treatment, the mMASI score was 5.4±3.22; 90 days later, the mMASI was 3.22±2.16, and the score decreased significantly ( t=5.9, P<0.05); after 120 days, mMASI score was 1.6±0.68, and the score decreased significantly ( t=7.55, P<0.05). Pigmentation occurred in one patient after treatment, and hypopigmentation after repair treatment; none of the patients had adverse reactions such as hypopigmentation. All the 80 patients had different degrees of improvement in pores and skin texture. Conclusions:The combination of micro-needling with lumin OX and brightline in the treatment of chloasma has a definite effect without obvious side effects. It provides a new method for the treatment of chloasma.
