Abstract
Chloasma is a common skin disease with acquired pigmentation, which mostly affects the face symmetrically, like a butterfly wing in shape; hence it also called butterfly macules. Chloasma is more commonly seen on the nose, forehead, cheeks, and mouth, without any subjective symptoms. The skin lesion is light or dark brown pigmentation macules, with clear border, smooth surface, absence of scale, worsening by exposure to sunlight. Presently, modern medicine has many methods for chloasma, and has some positive results; but some side effects occur and chloasma frequently recurs. We treated chloasma by auricular bloodletting therapy.
