Abstract

Skin (Tvaka) is the general covering of the entire external surface of the body. It is the largest organ of the body both by surface area and weight. Glowing Skin on the face gives self-confidence. Vyanga has become a major problem of the society. Many people are suffering from Vyanga today. The disease Vyanga (chloasma) is considered as a ‘Kshudraroga’ by most Acharyas. Acharya Charak considered Vyanga as a Rakta Pradoshaja Vyadhi. The treatment for melasma in Ayurveda is devoid of side effects it is very effective and it promises to stop the recurrence. The detailed description of its Hetu (causative factors), Samprapti (prognosis), the Chikitsa (local and internal) is given in Ayurved Samhitas. Vyanga can be correlated with Melasma in modern science. It is an acquired pigmentary condition, occurring most commonly on the face. This disorder is predominantly attributed to ultraviolet (UV) exposure and hormonal influences. Methods: To compile all the references of Ekal Dravya Prayog in Vyanga Rog mentioned in Ayurveda texts. Conclusion: After collecting all the data from different Samhitas we can have multiple Ekal Drvaya which will further be used according to the Prakriti of the patient.
