INTRODUCTION: Vyanga or melasma is a skin condition characterized by the presence of hyperpigmented patches on the face. While it may not be considered a severe medical issue, it can significantly impact an individual's confidence and self-esteem. In today's globalized and highly competitive world, the emphasis on presenting oneself well is crucial for success. The skin, being the most visible part of the body, plays a vital role in this presentation. Many people seek a magical solution for flawless skin, driven by the desire to look and feel their best. Modern medical treatments for melasma often come with side effects, and recurrences are common. In contrast, Ayurvedic treatment for melasma is highly effective, free from side effects, and offers the promise of preventing recurrence. Ayurvedic texts provide detailed insights into the causative factors (Hetu), prognosis (Samprapti), and both local and internal treatments for melasma. This holistic approach in Ayurveda aims to not only address the symptoms but also treat the root causes, making it a valuable and comprehensive option for managing melasma. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: This research aims to provide an in-depth understanding of Vyanga and melasma by analyzing information from Ayurvedic texts and modern sources. It seeks to comprehend Vyang’s causative factors, pathophysiology, and treatment modalities. Additionally, the research aims to offer a comprehensive overview of various treatment methods, specifically addressing melasma within the Ayurvedic context. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Information regarding signs, symptoms and treatment about Vyanga have been collected from different Ayurvedic books including Brihatriyi, Laghutriyi and other contemporary books. Modern texts, journals, and various websites were explored and consulted to gather information on the relevant subject. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, this article bridges the gap between Ayurvedic and modern medical perspectives on Vyanga, shedding light on their similarities and differences. It underscores the potential for Ayurveda to contribute significantly to more efficient, safe, and holistic remedies for managing melasma and offers hope for improving the quality of life for those affected by this distressing condition.
