The rediscovery of the Redwood orpiment and a cocktail of plants macerates containing arbutin to defeat the Arribas-Silvestre’s syndrome in a bien agée upper class lady
Journal Title: Nasza Dermatologia Online - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 4
Abstract
The Arribas-Silvestre’s syndrome is a sort of photodermatitis induced especially in elder (especially women) when they use to put pure essences or fragrances directly onto their skin, take some medicaments and expose to sun rays periodically. The black spots are irreversible and are aesthetically unpleasant. Generally people tend to renounce to treat this disease, since it seems no remedy is available and strongest lotions or emulsions containing 2-5% of hydroquinone are banished and anyway perilous. Here I herald a simplest method using on alternate days an ancient orpiment to abrade black spots and a mix of herb macerates containing arbutin, apt to bleach the original brownish or black maculae. Results are amazing.
