Abstract
Recently, the Q-switched Nd:YAG laser has been reported to be an effective and safe method for melasma treatment and has become a new trend in clinical practices. In Vietnam, there has been no study conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the Q-switched Nd:YAG laser on melasma patients yet. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of the Q-switched Nd:YAG laser and the topical Tri-white serum in melasma treatment at Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital. This study was a cross-sectional descriptive study with 90 participants, diagnosed with melasma at Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital from April 2019 to July 2020. At the end of the treatment procedure, of all the participants, 13.41% had good results/completely cured, 41.46% saw significant improvements, 45.12% had slight improvements. No case got worse. The MASI score decreased over the treatment sessions, by 4.91 ± 2.70 points in total compared to the beginning. The success rate of the Q-switched Nd:YAG laser and the Tri-white serum combining method in melasma treatment was 82.22%.
Keywords: melasma, Q-switched Nd:YAG laser, Tri-white serum.
