简要总结

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether the use of dermocosmetics containing Bioceramides and Niacinamide can improve post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and promote positive impacts on self-esteem and quality of life in Brazilian Black women with facial hyperpigmentation (Fitzpatrick skin types IV to VI).

The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Does the treatment improve hyperpigmentation severity as measured by HASI and IGA scores?
  • Does the treatment improve participants' self-esteem and quality of life as assessed by MELASQoL and DLQI questionnaires?

Participants will:

  • Use a standardized skincare routine including cleanser (0.2% Bioceramides), moisturizer (2% Niacinamide + 1% Bioceramides), serum (5% Niacinamide + 3% Bioceramides), and SPF 30 sunscreen for 12 weeks.
  • Attend study visits at baseline, week 6, and week 12.
  • Undergo standardized facial photography and clinical assessments by specialists at baseline, week 6, and week 12.
  • Complete questionnaires related to self-esteem and quality of life at baseline, week 6, and week 12.
