TRANEXAMIC ACID FOR MELASMA (PILLS, CREAMS, INJECTIONS)| DR DRAY

Happy Tuesday! The placebo treatment always surprises me when I see the results of a scientific study. Asians always seem to be ahead of other countries. Is it reality or just an impression, I don't know! But you are here to share with us everything that is being done on a scientific basis. Very reassuring to see that there are specific studies to find a product for melasma. I'm still a little skeptical about the oral treatment. But the other approaches seem very promising for the future. One day, we will surely see a positive result from these studies. Very informative this video!

The oral treatment is the only thing that works for me. I am using aggressive sun protection and my melasma persists without the pills.

[@21972012145525]

Unfortunately/fortunately Asians have severe issues with being tanned or having pigmented skin. Fair skin = beautiful and vice versa. I’m sure many people have damaged their skin in hopes of getting it lighter. I know I have-I’m indian. Maybe due to the history of colonialism. 🤷‍♀️That’s probably rooted why they may be leading in skin “brightening” meds. Of course, the west is the opposite where a tan is seen as healthy.

Since the research seems not to support the effectiveness of TA in a gel-formula and suggests that it could even cause irritation, and the inkeylists tranexamic acid is in a gelformula, my guess is she wouldn’t recommend it. But, I’m tempted to try it still, since I don’t have access to better affordable options and people seem to like it, so would love to know for sure. What I understand from the research she’s citing, is that possibly an emulsion/cream at 2-5 % might be effective and safe, but it’s yet to be determined.

Just discovered your videos today and have spent the last couple of hours catching up on the wonderful information you have to offer us. I was hoping to see a video on Keratosis but have not found it yet. I am 65 years old and a few years ago I starting see these brown spots on my back. As this condition became prominent, I saw a Dermatologist who told me it was quite common with age and that there was nothing that could be done about it. Now there is hardly an area that is not effected, even on my scalp. This has effected my life greatly. I will no longer wear a bathing suit, clothes that do not cover most of my body and, I have completely stopped dating. I find it very embarrassing and God forbid I become involved with a man who would want to have a sexual relationship with me. I live alone. No children or family. I had hoped to meet a gentleman, fall in love and grow old with him. I now feel destined to grow old alone and become a recluse. Can you offer any advise? Is there treatment?

Please Dr Dray talk about glutathione and how people are using it to clear their skin.

[@jessi13091309]

Thanks a lot for the great video Dr Dray! Can I use a lotion containing tranexamic acid (2%) if I have a history of blood clots (thrombophilia)? I couldn’t find anything on the side effects if its used topically

[@everythingtemi130]

tranexamic acid vs arbutin?

[@enzop2835]

Por k no los dos?

[@TerriaJanee]

Use both

[@SleepingLionUK]

Tranexamic acid. Superdrug tranexamic booster by me+ less than a tenner or facetheory exaglow which is vit c and tran acid. Much better than things with arbutin like the ordinary bit c n alpha meh!!!!!! If you have melasma eucerin dark spot corrector is a game changer. Along with a few other things mines gone

Dr vanita did a video on this

[@ednadickinson122]

Dr Dray I have two questions: the treatments are a permanent solution to melasma? The injections how often?

[@DrDrayzday]

it can still come back w/ preganncy, birth control pills, sun exposure

[@Caiitlinmaree]

Please do a review on Sukin skincare!!! I would love to hear your thoughts on it💜

[@rockymatton2785]

Tranexamic acid 2% topical cream works 👍 without irritation.

[@Marniiita]

Where can I get this cream?

[@danielapagani5654]

I love you and your videos! Your kind and calm demeanor make me think you'd make the best mom! I noticed you don't talk as much about your clinical practice anymore, which was always really interesting! Would you be able to do a day in the life of a doctor vid at some stage? xxxxx

Is tranexamic acid affective for dark circles around eyes as an injection?? and how session is needed for person with medium dark circles???? Please answer my question, thank you 🙏🏻

[@dynamitedynamite2737]

Hi dr dray , can tranexamic acid oral be used for old post inflammatory hyperpigmentation which Hasn’t gone away ? Once you stop taking the tranexamic acid then will the hyperpigmentation come back worse ? Can you start back on tyrosinase inhibitors when you stop the oral TA ??

[@sweetestsna1]

Eltamd elements on Indian brown skin 👌. It is oily though so powder it a bit ;) I use hada labo perfect gel right out of shower, cerave tub on top and wait till it is dry. Then slather three pumps, wait till it settles and the slightly powder.. all done!!!! Does not irritate my eyes, I have MGD!

[@ThalitaFeitosa]

Hey Guys, I've been doing a treatment with Tranexamix by Pfizer for 5 months and I'm finally melasma free after 10 years 🙏 Thank God and my doctor

[@bellabwz]

[@ritasharqawi7367]

I went to a dermatologist who told me the only way to get rid of the melasma above my lip was through laser treatments. How well do lasers work to remove the discoloration? This medicine sounds promising.

[@21972012145525]

I have severe discoloration on my upper lip too. Laser was never recommended though. Mine is due to eczema/itching.
