Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (7)
Change of Melasma Severity based on modified Melasma Severity Index (mMASI) score.
The range of values for mMASI is between 0 and 24 which can then be divided into mild melasma (0-8), moderate (8-16), and severe (16-24). improvement occurs if the mMASI score decreases by \<50% from the previous visit worsening if score persists or mMASI Score Increase \>50%
re-evaluation on day 14, 28, 42, 56 and day 84 of therapy
Change of Melasma Severity based on Patient's Tolerability Assesment (PtGA).
one method of evaluating the response to therapy in melasma which is assessed subjectively by the patient. The response to therapy can be assessed as follows No or slight response: \< 25% improvement Moderate response: 25% - 50% improvement Good response: 50% improvement - \< 75% Excellent response: improvement \> 75% The response is said to be good if the score is above 50% since the previous visit
re-evaluation on day 14, 28, 42, 56 and day 84 of therapy
Change of Melasma Severity based on Dermoscopy
based on Dermoscopy Telangiectasis score assessment using a 5-point dermoscopy-scale: 0 = No visible capillaries. 1 = Elongated capillaries accompanied by dilation, not visible to the naked eye. 2 = Moderate telangiectasis that is beginning to be visible to the naked eye. 3 = Severe telangiectasis characterized by reduced capillary loops. 4 = Very severe telangiectasis characterized by dilatation and loss of capillary loops.
re-evaluation on day 84 of therapy
Change of Melasma Severity based on Wood's Lamp
Epidermal Type/ Dermal Typed/ Mixed Typed
re-evaluation on day 84 of therapy
Compare Quality Of Life based on MelasQoL Score
based on MelasQoL Score minimum score: 7 maximum score : 70
re-evaluation on day 84 of therapy
Change of Melanin Index Based on Mexameter
improves if there is a decrease in melanin levels \> 50% from the initial visit It is said to be bad or persistent if there is no decrease in melanin levels or there is a decrease of \<50%
re-evaluation on day 14, 28, 42, 56 and day 84 of therapy
Change of Erytema Index Based on Mexameter
improves if there is a decrease in Erytema levels \> 50% from the initial visit It is said to be bad or persistent if there is no decrease in erythema levels or there is a decrease of \<50%
re-evaluation on day 14, 28, 42, 56 and day 84 of therapy
Study Arms (3)
Group A (Secretom group)
EXPERIMENTALGroup A, the treatment group, used Secretom 2ml Intradermal injection, Sunscreen in the morning and used Tretinoin cream 0,05% at night and cleanser which was used in the morning and evening before using the cream.
Group B (Triple Combination Group)
EXPERIMENTALGroup B, the treatment group, getting sunscreen cream in the morning and triple combination (Refaquin) cream at night and facial soap that can be used in the morning and evening.
Group C (Tranexamic Acid Group)
EXPERIMENTALGroup C, the treatment group, used Intradermal Injection of Tranexamic Acid 10mg/mL and 25mg/mL split face , Sunscreen in the morning and used Tretinoin cream 0,05% at night and cleanser which was used in the morning and evening before using the cream.
Interventions
The secretome used in this research comes from mesenchymal stem cells from adipose tissue produced by IPT RSCM Stem Cell Medical Technology. The secretome produced by mesenchymal stem cells is collected, centrifuged to separate it from debris, and followed by filtration with a 0.22 μm pore filter to ensure sterility. Next, the concentration process is carried out using tangential flow filtration with the Spin-X UF 500® concentrator, packaged, and stored at -80 degrees Celsius. The product used is a sterile product, which is tested for sterility and total protein content. When it is to be used, the secretome is removed from the freezer, warmed (thawing), and injected into the patient according to a predetermined method.
1. Tranexamic acid 25 mg/ml is prepared by taking tranexamic acid in a vial 250 mg/5 ml as much as 0.5 ml (25 mg) using a 1 ml syringe and diluted with 0.5 ml 0.9% NaCl solution just before being injected into the SP. 2. Tranexamic acid 10 mg/ml is prepared by taking 0.2 ml (10 mg) of AT in a 250 mg/5 ml vial using a 1 ml syringe and diluting it with 0.8 ml of 0.9% NaCl solution for a moment. before injection into the Subject 2\. Tranexamic acid 10 mg/ml is prepared by taking 0.2 ml (10 mg) of AT in a 250 mg/5 ml vial using a 1 ml syringe and diluting it with 0.9% normal saline (NS) 0.8 ml just before injection into the Subject
1. Apply sunscreen SPF ≥30 in the morning on 2 knuckles 2. Apply triple combination cream (Refaquin) containing hydroquinone 40 mg, tretinoin 0.5 mg, and fluocinolone acetonide 0.1 mg at night all over the face except the area around the eyes, 1 fingertip unit (FTU) or 1 knuckle.
