A 45-year-old housewife [Patient ID: 31816] came with a complaint of persistent black discoloration around the eyes, which had gradually spread to her face and anterior neck over the past year. The discoloration had become a significant concern for her, affecting her confidence and overall sense of well-being. Despite trying various conventional medicines and topical treatments, the roughness of the skin only worsened, while the pigmentation remained unresponsive. There was no associated itching or burning present. When she first came for treatment, she was already under a long list of conventional medications, including oral immunosuppressants, antihistamines, vitamin supplements, and topical formulations. Local applications like Melano-TX cream, Avene emulsion, Azelac RU serum, face wash, and cleansing gel

The patient was thermally chilly, and her menstrual cycles were regular, though often accompanied by minor complaints like headaches, vomiting, vulval itching, or leg pain.
Mental Generals:
The patient is gentle, composed, confident, and precise. However, she was also irritable at times, mostly when her skin condition flared or when she felt helpless about the lack of visible progress.

Second follow-up:
August 2017: Within 3–4 months of starting treatment, she noticed that the dark patches were becoming lighter. Skin roughness had slightly reduced, and no new spots had appeared. She felt hopeful as this was the first sign of improvement after months of disappointment with other treatments.

Seventh follow-up:
February 2023: The patient reported being 90% better. There were no complaints in the last few months, and she said, “I just want to continue the same medicine because it’s working.”
