Facial pigmentation, Melasma and Homeopathy
August 10, 2007
Pigmentation and its Homeopathic Treatment
Facial discoloration is asymptomatic (without any symptoms) but is of great cosmetic concern, resulting in psychological stress. The most common reasons are pregnancy and exposure to sun. During pregnancy the hormone level can increase the body’s production of melanin, a pigment that tints the skin.
The result is chloasma (also known as melasma or the mask of pregnancy), irregular brown patches on t he forehead, nose, and checks. Women with darker complexions are more prone to developing chlosma. Other pigmented areas, such as birthmarks and freckles, may darken as well. One may also notice a brown line down the abdomen, from the belly button to the public bone, called linea nigra.
Most of these pigmented areas lighten again a few months after delivery, though they may not clear up completely. It is also common in pregnant women, those who are taking oral contraceptives (the “Pill”), and those taking hormone replacement therapy during menopause. Sun exposure is also a strong risk factor for melasma. It is particularly common in tropical climates.
Sepia (homeopathic medicine) is of utmost importance in treating discoloration occurring after pregnancy. In fact, it is apt for what one would call a post-pregnancy syndrome ? a brownish saddle like appearance spreading across the nose, backache, easily fatigued constitution, heightened mental sensitivity and irritability. Other medicines that are important in treatment are arsenic album and conium maculatum.
Sun-damaged skin or sunspots, medically called lentigos, and commonly referred to as liver spots, are a product of sun exposure. This exposure is cumulative and not directly related to sunburn on a specific day.
Homeopathy does not advocate the use of creams and ointments in skin disorders. It believes that skin disorders are a reflection of inside and need to be treated from within. Another strong opinion that homeopaths propagate is that any external application can lead to the suppression of the disease and result in a more serious systemic disorder. A well-prescribed homeopathic medicine not only takes care of hyperpigmentation but also treats as a whole and improves general health as well.
Homoeopathic medicines treat the hormonal imbalance and thus control the excessive production of melanin. The texture of the skin also improves. The occurrences of new patches reduce and ultimately stop. The skin slowly reverts to its normal condition without leaving any blemishes.
General precautions for people suffering from hyperpigmentation: stay out of the sun so that these areas don’t darken even more. If you can’t avoid the sun, wear hats, cover up. Along with it, eat a well-balanced diet, avoid cosmetics, avoid direct exposure of skin to sunlight and please do not self-medicate.

Respected Dr.Sahib,
Thanks for the awareness for public re.Homeopathy.My wife is chronic Diabtic and depends on insulin twice a day…and nothing is written about Diabtic..please guide. Thanks once again for the same. Mohinder Singh Heir
Dear Dr. Sharma
I’ve been suffering for hyper pigmentation on my face for a long time almost three years and during these years I’ve undergone treatment with various skin doctors but intermittantly and after using the medicine regularly I didn’t find any improvement, rather it increase the affected areas.
Prescribed medicine were Ist time – Betnovate C (1)/2004; 2nd time/2005 – ClearZ+Momate; 3rd Time/2006- Metalite+Momate+tretrine (These creams increased the problem); 4 time/2007 – Hyde+Desonite which I’m using presently from last One month. These medicines I’ve use intermittantly only when prescibed by doctors for the time frame
Meanwhile I also got done all testing regarding blood, urine and others and got that lever is little enlarged and to be control.
But now I fed up with all these treatments, also note that initailly I was having the sun exposure but since last One year I donot have much sun exposure, it is very less.
I’ve coincidently read your comments and belive that if Homeopathy can help me to get rid of this. Also suggest that whether enlarged lever also contribute to this or not. Pl. also prescribe some homeopathic treatment if possible.

Hi Dr,
I have been suffering from hormone (Pill) induced Melasma for roughly 2 years. At first it appeared on my forhead (which has slowly faded away and is now only slightly visible) and 6 months ago, a large spot under my left eye appered, along with more spots now under my right eye. I have found this odd as i have been taking the pill for 13years and never before have i had any skin problems from taking it. You’re Homeopatheic Therapy has intrigued me. Perhaps it is a combination of things that has caused this sudden increase in malanin? Are you able to send me some more information on this Homeopathic Therapy please?

I dont know what medicines were given as the doctors did not disclose them Burrenty she is taking sulphur 30 in the morning and thuja 200 in the evening. It has been 7 months but I do not see any changes. Please advice

Dear Doctor,
I have been suffering from pigmentation for more than an year. i am having dark patches on my cheeks which look really bad. I also have some pimple marks on my face which are not going at all despite various treatments.I have undergone treatment with many doctors. The medicines/creams prescribed to me are as follows:
1) Hyclean cream
2)Kojic cream
3)Glyco-6
4)Casera Tablets(Antioxidant)
I have been using these medicines for a very long time but there has been no improvement at all. Infact the skin darkening is increasing day by day. My doctor is asking me to go for chemical peeling now for which i am not ready. I have also got blood and Urine tests done for Thyroid. All my reports are normal.
I would be really grateful if you could help me. I desperately need a remedy for this.

Hello Doctor,
I belong to jammu(j&k), I m un married and my age is 26.
My complexion is fair but my upper back and the front of my neck have brown spots.
Back has more of spots and the neck looks as if not washed properly (it gives uneven brownish colour that looks like as if it is not bathed properly).
Also my neck area is prone to sun burn ,I can’t go out in extreme summers without sunscreen on, the severe heat results in itching and darkening of neck and back.
The problem in almost 15 yrs. old.
I have shown it to various dermatologists overhere ,they say that this is permanent sun damage and it won’t go now.
I went to a beauty salon ,they told me that they will try minimizing it with enzyme peels, I have undergone 8 of these sittings ,but it has resulted in only 15% lessening of spots and that too more on the back area.Do u think continuing this will be beneficial?
I don’t want to waste more money on these peels if they are just temporary treatments.Kindly suugest me some treatment for these blemishes ,if u think these can be minimized to a greater extent.
Is this homeopathic medication without any side-effects?
I am taking some anti-depressant pills(serlift 50) ,will homeopathic treatment interfere with this?
I was also suffering from PCOD pattern that was not fully formed ,but is now cured .
Will Betnovate c be effective?Does it have any side-effects?
kindly reply soon

Dear Dr Sharma,
I have read your article on Skin Pigmentation and Homeopathic Treatment, and I agree that treatment must be administered from Within. I am from South Africa, a mixed Ethnicity, between White, Indian and Malay…I am 40 yrs, two teenage kids, good health & physically fit… I Don’t smoke, don’t drink any alcohol. I stopped playing soccer because I was told that the winter sun has affected my skin. I have dark patches over my cheeks. I am on the pill. I use a foundation on my face. I am using a skin cream called Prevage from Elizabeth Arden at the moment. It costs R1276.00 – I was advised that it would clear up my pigmentation. I am using it for almost 2 months, but no change to my skin, instead, I broke out with pimples.
Please PLEASE assist me with advise on where I may obtain the necessary medication. I will be visiting India on the 17th May 2008, for 7 days.
Thank you kindly

Dear Dr. Sherma,
I have had these dark spots on my face for the past six years. I had a great
compliction. Now these dark patches have been there and no matter what
I have tried, It will not go away. I have spent alot of money but they didn’t go
away. Now I have to wear a very heavy foundation, which is not easy to do
every morning. The doctors give me many different reasons, but ultimately
they all say the same thing, that the pigmentation will never go away.
If there is a way, please help me.
Thank you so much for listening

i am a 25-yr-old female frm kerala. i have been suffering frm hyperpigmentation since 2003. till then i had a medium complexion(near to fair) on the exposed areas and fair complexion on the covered areas. but in may 2003 i had to be in sun for almost 1 hour without any protection. i felt a burning sensation on my face and arms. wen i came home, my face, arms and legs were reddish in color and by the evening it became darker and darker. i knew i had sunburn and i consulted a dermatologist who told me that he could do nothing except prescribing sunblock. since then i have tried many way like applying turmeric. atlast by 2006 there was slight improvement. though my face remained dark and spotty, my neck became
very fair and my face used to stand out. but things again got worse wen i bcame pregnant in 2007. frm the 3rd month of my pregnancy a dark spot appeared on my neck and slowly it started spreading and by the 2nd day of my delivery it bcame so that it was hard for others to recognize me. i hav tried different methods including chemical peeling x 11 times, external application of ointments and creams, natural remedies, but with no improvement. ther would be improvemnt wen i begin something but suddenly i see that my skin bcomes darker than before. now my baby is 1 year old and for almost 1 yr now, i don go out in sun and for most of the time, i stay indoor.
yesterde i consulted a homeopathic doctor and he has given me some meds to take inward and a lotion to apply on the areas.
do u think that am on the right track?
i am really concerned abt this coz it has changed my total appearence. i had been a good looking girl but since 2003 i’v turned almost ugly. my husband is also really concerned abt this.
do u think there is any chance for me to gain my lost grace and beauty or wil i hav to remain like this for my entire life.
do please reply and if possible pls prescribe some medications.

hi,
I have about 8-9 year old strong melasma on my cheeks caused by birth
controlling pills. I had colesma during pregnancy which almost disappeared after
the delivery. My skin was clear during the consumption of these hormones control
pills that i had for about 3 years to control my acne and help with birth
control. After 3 years when i had to stop these pills, they left me with these
blemishes on my face.I have tried laser and peeling in last two years but of no
use. I have seen your articleand looks very promising. Could you
please convince me further regarding the proficient, promising and permanant
results of your recommended treatment in my case.
I dont want to use any dangerous and cancer causing skin lightening creams.
Also. I don’t to experiment stupidly any more (after my last year’s
experience) especially with my face.
looking forward to hear from you.
many thanks

formed some fungus. Without noticing it i just applied in my face. My skin was allerged. After that it got cleared by applying
some allopathy ointments and medicines.
But my lips outline were really turned dark and my entire lips is too dry due to this incident. My lips tanned.
After this incident, it tanned and outline is harsh, dry, strain to stretch and it has lots of wrinkles too.
i really suffer a lot of my lips as i said above.
P.S. : Before my lips were very pinkish, moistured and outline is really good, moistured, and smooth.
Please sir, help me to regain my beautiful, natural pinkish, moistured, smooth lips with good lip outline.
I am a believer in homeopathy, now i use Bryonia alba 3x to enhance mucous membrane of lips.

i suffer from hyperpigmantation can u suggest medication for me
I am 38 years old. I got a chemical peel on my skin @ age 26. Instead of clearing my skin, I developed severe dark patches of dark skin. I was prescribed hydroquonine for several years. To no avail, my melasma actually got worse. To think that I got the chemical peel to clear small imperfections and end up with this horrible condition makes little sense to me! I have had 2 children during the past 10 years, so I have been on great diets, excersize, had no medication and have followed all of the rules to carry healthy children and breast feed in addition. Still, though I was naturally healthy, I have had this melasma issue since. I am starting to get melasma on my forehead now as well. I have bought and tried everything, even the fraxel lazer, obaji green peel, obaji skin system, advertised products such as kojic acid, enzyme fruit peels, microdermabrasion treatments, etc… Still, the melasma stays and even worsens! I stay out of the sun almost completely, and this has really reduced my social relationships. My children play tennis and baseball, and I have to miss most of their meets due to this most frustrating situation! Please help if you can. I would love to have self esteem improve, go out to my children’s games and activities. It has been 12 years, and I am losing hope. Please respond as my children are 10 and 8 and I would sure love to show them a new mom that goes out in public and does not hide at home! Thank you for your web site!
Hello Doctor,
I’m a 34 yr old man of Indian descent. I used to have flawless fair skin but, since last 4.5 years I’ve been suffering from skin severe discoloration/pigmentation especially on my cheek bones and on my nose. Its a symmetrical or close, … Skin Discoloration . Last time when I was in India I went to through lazer treatment and it did wonder (only for like one year though). Now the discoloration is back and here My dermatologist says it’s Melasma .I’d been using a prescribed cream called Tri-Luma® Cream which helped a bit but,not really. My skin turned red during the day so, I had to stop using it. Later I started using another cream Melederm by Civant which is also did not help. I guess I’ve dry to oily skin may be mixed because once in a while I’ve also seen one or two outbreak (acne???) ,but I must say that I’ve very sensitive skin. I drink lots of water, eat healthy, use moisturizer and, always wear sunscreen (SPF 70+) never out in sun still its’ not helping. I feel embarrassed because the pigmentation is increasing rapidly.. Please advice what should I do now??

hello Dr,
what can i do for facial pigmentation on my cheek and my nose.could you please tell me a medicine for that.
thanking you
Hello sir,
I had black marks on the cheeks and round the nose. I consulted a dermatologist and the analysis was Seborhec dermatitis. I was prescribed a cream called propyzole which i used for 15 days. Very good change was there. After that Dr prescribed me to use Melalite creame for removing the remaining black spots. Initially it worked. I was also using a moisturising creame called Venusia , because skin was getting dried up after washing. After 3 weeks i stopped melalite creame and then for 2 months, every thing was right. But again the same problem occured and i consulted another Dr and he gave me a creame called HH Zole, containing mometazone furoate. Again things improved but again it went worse. Burning and streching occured on the face and my old Dr told me it was due to the use of HH Zole. He asked me to apply calamine lotion at night and sunscreen lotion (Suncross gel ) , day time. Now my skin is very thin and much sensitive. Brown and dark spots are there and looks very ugly. I am not using the prescribed creame for the dark spots because i know that it will again appeare. I am also having dust allergy problems for which i’m not taking any medicine. i’m 33 years old male unmarried. Please help me in this situation.
Regards.

My Struggles and Triumphs with Melasma
by Shama Bano
When I began my tumultuous journey with melasma (hyperpigmentation of the skin) over 14 years ago, I had no idea how long the road would be that lied ahead. 14 years of trial and error, mistakes and misinformation led me to a condition that diminished my quality of life and shattered my self confidence. Only women with melasma can truly understand the negative effects this condition has on their way of life, their family and their social interaction. I have always kept life in perspective and was grateful for all of my blessings, however over time my melasma had taken over my life.
My bout with Melasma first began in 1994 after being prescribed Birth control pills (synthetic hormones) after two week, a very noticeable dark patch of skin appeared on upper cheek. My dermatologist diagnosed me with melasma and prescribed a bleaching cream which worked as long as I continued use. I stop using BCP right away. In 1997 The following summer I noticed another dark patch that seemed to appear overnight. I went back to my dermatologist and she prescribed that I should get Micro-dermabrasion and start using HQ 4% with Lustra. I used it and my both spots were gone in two weeks, I felt wonderful and of course I was 26 year old that time. In 1998, I start seeing those spots again on my face. They will get darker in summer and fade in winter. I went again to see same dermatologist, who is now in cosmetic business, not interested in treating but making money out of me. She told me to do Micro-dermabrasion again with same bleaching cream, I trusted her since, my first treatment worked fine. The patch began to slightly fade but was still very noticeable – leaving me to feel self conscious. In 2000 since I was getting more self conscious, I wanted to do whatever possible to resolve these dark patches on my face. I went to a same reputable dermatology center and they performed a chemical peel on my face which provided short term results, and very negative long term ill effects. In fact, I was later told that since I have olive skin, the procedure should have never been performed on me.
Shortly thereafter, I noticed that my spot were light and I start thinking may be I can’t do anything about it, so for almost 4 year I was not to much bothered by my blotches, I could hide it with little make-up In 2003- 2004 I went India spot got little darker as India is HOT, I used HQ 4% and start living my life. In year 2006 JUNE I visited India, hottest month of the year. My mother-in-law passed away, I did not care for sun and visited many places, and I always had my sunscreen. My blotches came back. In year 2007-08, I start preparing for My CPA exam, my stress level was in its peak. I changed my Sunscreen cream and went to beach since my kids love water. Overnight, I saw my blotches were bigger and darker. I was very, sad and desperate, start doing my own research, saw Tri-luma website, and went back to the dermatologist who prescribed Tri-Luma Hydroquinone Cream to be used daily for 4 weeks. I was also told that I could no longer be exposed to sunlight while I had this condition since it would only make it worse. I took chance, since I was going for HAJJ and going to meet my relatives after 12 year. My nightmare started as I left USA, my both cheeks were black (I mean totally BLACK) I was devastated. I spent countless hours finding the perfect UV protectant hat, the perfect sunscreen, make-up, cleansing wash, and start looking for every product on the market that guaranteed an instant cure. I am sure you have found out by now there is no cure, and all the money spent on all-hype, no results products are waste. Years of hiding under Duppatta, is making me so tired.
After several years of microdermabrasion, chemical peel topical ointments treatments, I realized that it just made things worse over time. My skin elasticity was gone and bleaching it for so many times was taking its toll on my skin. It finally dawned on me that the problem was internal and treating melasma topically was not the solution.
Dear Dr. Sharma, Please let me know if there is any hope for from Homeopathy. I am visiting India next moth, I can come and see you, Please let me know.
Thanks

Dear Doctor,
After reading all the above letters I feel a ray of hope for myself, I have been sufferrring from dark patches on my neck,forehead,nose and upperlip. These are growing darker day by day despite using sunscreens and vraious other allopathy,home,homeopathic treatments. I have tried all kinds of facials at beauty parlours(may be5 times) and was planning to go for laser treatment at Kaya or New Look centre. My neck and back patches were there since my second child was born in 1982 but not so visible, since throughout my life I have never worn dresses exposing my neck or back. Now my arms are also darkening. I never used any creams earlier bu now since last two years am conscious of my dark patches on face(especially upper lip and forehead) have been using various sun-screens. Lacto-calamine etc. I used to bleach my face and back but felt that it makes me look darker after a day. I am noticing brown patches on my legs which are always covered. These days my skin is itching a lot I have treied using all kinds of anti-allergy tabs also Sulphur 30 and Thuja 200. I am mostly constipated, I am 56 years old now. I am active working woman and am always indoors, except commuting to Office. I had very good jet black hair and bushy eyebrows which I have been shaping for last 36 years and threading my upper lip. My skin was commented to be extremely beautiful by eveen Shahnaz Hussain till recently but now these patches on my face have made me so conscious since last 6 years that I keep covering my mouth while meeting people. My eyebrows also starting greying when I was 35 and doctors gave me Dipsalic cream/betnovate. I used Henna for almost 15 years and now for last 7 years have been using Hair colours (Loreal/Revelon/Clairol etc.) Now I have been advised to use Greynill. I am scared. I hope I am not developing any kind of decease. My body has started developing black marks very easily. I need help. Sometimes, I feel I do not want to live, since I feel I am not goodlooking any more and do not enjoy dressing up for functions also. People make fun of me.
I will be grateful if you could help.
Thanks

Respected sir, i am 38 yrs old. From past two months i find brown small dots and cluster of brown paches on my upper bone of the cheek and nose. I start using kojic acid with vitamin c. It works but i am scared it might errupt again. patches are not gone entirely. There r deep Brown frackel also. If you suggest me homeopathy medicine i will be highly obliged.
my pigmentation problem started during my pregnancy, The doctor told me it will go after delivery. It had not gone, and I didn’t bother much about it. Now 12 years hence, the problem still exists. My scar areas are in the upper cheek bone areas, end areas of the eyebrows, and little on the fore head now. I have applied many creams suggested by skin specialists, but no use.At present i am using HOmeopathic medicine intake and waiting results. Is the decision O.K and will it yield results ? I am also using ELOVERA cream when going out to prevent sunrays and more darkening. Please suggest suitably. Thank YOU.

Hello Doctor,
I have a dark pigmentation around my upper lip and lower lid area which is slightly extended towards the cheeks (well explained area is where the boys keep French cut moustache.). I have consulted a dermatologist in my local area. I have been under medication for 6 months. The medications that I have gone through are
1. Radiant KC Forte + Halox Cream – at morning for 1 month. Then now I am only into Radiant KC.
2. Keracnyl Face Wash.
3. Kligmel – at night
This was the initial medication done. When I used Kligmel all the black spot were disappeared and I found a glow on face. But the moment I stopped the cream the pigmentation came back.
Then the doctor recommended few more creams.
1. Depiwhite- at morning
2. Radiant KC Forte- at morning
3. Melaglow- at night
4. Sunban Forte- 3 times a day
5. Cetaphil Lotion- at night
Which I continued for another month. By using all the pigmentation neither increased nor decreased.
Now after 6 months of medication my doctor has suggested for Neostrata Peel for 5 sittings. It is recommended that it will be the permanent solution. Since it is bit costly and as I am unaware of the result as well as the side effects I just want to know that should I go for it??
N B: I take OC pills as this was recommend by my Gyaenocologist as I don’t get my period regular and have follicles in my ovary. I have stopped it for a month to check whether its effecting in decreasing the pigmentation but it didn’t help.
Please suggest me what I should now.

Dear Dr. Sharma
I’ve been suffering for hyper pigmentation on my forehead (hardly 1 Inch) for a long time almost 17 years and during these years I’ve undergone treatment with 3 doctors but after using the medicine regularly I didn’t find any improvement, neither increase nor decrease the affected area. Prescribed medicine was last time Arsenic Album 200.
Right now, I am using from last 2 months Pigmento ointment . These medicines I’ve used or using only prescribed by doctors.
But now I fed up with all these treatments.
I’ve coincidently read your comments and believe that you can help me to get rid of this. Please advice

Hi,
Hair dye’s also cause the hyperpigmentation on face and it is hard to get rid off. If you are using any chemical based hair dye’s(which contains PPD), first stop using it immediately and after that take doctor’s advice on how to reduce the patches on the face.
Thank you.

hello doctor,
I have Melasma on my cheekbone area, couple of patches on forehead and on upper lip area. I visited doctor and he told me that I have Melasma. I have never been pregnant and once I used birth control pills just for five days. After that I never used birth pills. I never had this problem and not even in my family ever. I am not sure is it because of birth control pills or of sun exposure. I am at USA and never used sun screen before I got Melesma. So may be sun is the reason.
1. Can intake of birth pills of five days be the reason of Melasma?
2. I am very much depressed about My Melesma. How your treatment works and which treatment of Melasma be good for me?
Please reply me as soon as possible. I will be grateful to you.
thank you

Dear Doctor,
I am 50yrs old,and I am fro Malaysia. About 10 yrs ago there was a dark patch on my chin and slowly it started spreading all over the face. Finaly the whole face was an even dark colour. This whole process took about nine months. I thought then the process ended.
Then slowly another dark pigmentation curtain started from my forehead, slowly down my whole face. This has been going on for ten years now. No itching was noted.
Lately the pigmentation started travelling to the neck, arm chest and my abdomen. Uncontrolable itching on the chest. Please help. Have not tried any western medicine, but have done peeling and sun block, to no avail. Have actually given up hope, attributing the whole thing as fate.
My classmates cant even recognise me, if not for my voice. I normally apply foundatation when i go out. I saw your site, and i thought i will write in and try.
Dr Sharma,
For the past almost 3 yrs I have been suffering from pigmentation on my cheeks, recently on my forehead and sides of upper lip which looks like im getting a moustache. Skin doctor from Lady Hardinge Hospital prescribed hydroquinone ointment (A Ret HC), Melalong. This has only increased the problem. Kindly let me know what the treatment is. And how do i get intouch with you, could you give me your contact #
