简要总结
The application of Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) on three occasions with an interval of 15 days between each one, is related to a decrease in the intensity of the spots and improvement in the quality of the skin of patients with melasma.
详细描述
832/5000 Objective: To evaluate the effect of PRP for Melasma treatment. Material and methods: Prospective cohort with therapeutic intervention. Patients, female, with melasma were included. Changes in the melanin concentration of the face (MASI), degree of satisfaction (MELASQOL) and histological changes were clinically evaluated.
The Sp-MELASQOL questionnaire, Fitzpatrick and MASI scales were applied, and photographs were taken with ambient light and with Wood's light with the Janus-II General Model. The patients were evaluated and classified, before and after the treatment by means of dermatoscopy, which was performed using a dermatoscope with polarized light (DermLite DL3N®), which allows an increase from 6 to 400X.
The dermatoscopy reported the findings of: Quantity, Density and Depth of melasma.

研究组 & 干预措施
Application of platelet-rich plasma
The patients received three sessions of PRP application, at intervals of 15 days between each of them. It was applied by means of a 32G needle to introduce the PRP by means of superficial micro-injections via the mesotherapy technique (approximately 1.5-2.0 mm deep) and it was deposited in the papillary dermis of the rosotro.
干预措施: Platelet-Rich Plasma (Biological)

Type of melasma by dermatoscopy
时间窗: one year
It was performed using a dermatoscope (DermLite DL3N brand) with polarized light. Pictures were taken, (with Canon Powershot G12 camera) of the most characteristic part of the lesion, either in front, cheekbones or jaw. The photograph was taken before and after starting the treatment of the same anatomical site on both occasions. The melasma was classified according to the depth in: epidermal (regular and brown pigment is appreciated), dermal (regularity is lost and a color between blue and gray is seen) and mixed (combinations of these two). Two researchers were in charge of performing the dermatoscopy and the qualitative measurement of it.
Density of melasma by dermatoscopy
时间窗: one year
Photographs were compared by dermatoscopy of the most characteristic part of the lesion before and after treatment. Categorizing these photographs in: 1 (brown pigment), 2 (gray-blue) or 3 (dark brown / black).
Presence or not of telangiectasias.
时间窗: one year
Photographs were compared by dermatoscopy of the most characteristic part of the lesion before and after treatment. In search of telangiectasias. Two researchers were in charge of performing the dermatoscopy and the qualitative measurement of it.
Amount of melasma by dermatoscopy
时间窗: one year
Photographs were compared by dermatoscopy of the most characteristic part of the lesion before and after treatment. Categorizing these photographs in: 0 (without appreciable lesions), 1 (discolorations and slight presence of pigment), 2 (scattered pigment points) and 3 (pigment points together).
Change of the severity of melasma.
时间窗: one year
First divide the face into four regions: front (F), right malar (MR), left malar (ML), and chin (CH), which corresponds to 30%, 30%, 30% and 10% , respectively, of the total area(A) of the face. Subsequently, the area involved in each region is evaluated, assigning values from 1 to 6, depending on whether it affects: less than 10%; 10 to 29%; 30 to 49%; 50 to 69%; 70 to 89%; or 90 to 100%. A score is also assigned according to the darkening of the pigmentation (D): absent (0); mild (1); moderate (2); marked (3) or maximum (4). Finally, following this same scale, a value is assigned according to the homogeneity of the pigmentation (H). The following equation is used to calculate this index: The Melasma Area and Severity Index= 0.3 (DF + HF) AF+ 0.3 (DMR + HMR) AMR + 0.3 (DML + HML) AML + 0.1 (DCH + HCH) ACH The range is 0-48, although it is strictly an aesthetic problem, the higher the score, the greater the affectation. This scale was applied before and after the treatment.
Comparison of histological analysis
时间窗: one year
For this analysis, the obtained samples were fixed by 10% formalin and cuts of 6 μm were made. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used for the visualization of melanophages in the dermis, cutaneous atrophy, solar elastosis and inflammatory infiltrate. Fontana-Masson stain to evaluate the pigmentation, focality of the pigmentation, distribution and absence of pigment in the papillary dermis. Biopsy was taken at the beginning of the study and at the end.
