Keep reading to find out what is the secret natural ingredient that offers a solution to dark spots on the face.
What is hyperpigmentation?
Hyperpigmentation is a condition that occurs when the skin becomes darker in certain areas due to increased melanin production. Hyperpigmentation can appear as brown, black, gray, red or pink spots or freckles. Hyperpigmentation is often referred to as freckles or age spots.
Types of hyperpigmentations?
There are different types of hyperpigmentation, and some of the most common are:
- Melasma (mask of pregnancy): Melasma usually occurs during pregnancy due to hormonal changes and is characterized by the appearance of dark spots on the face, usually on the forehead, cheeks and upper lip.
-
Freckles : These spots are caused by overexposure to the sun and usually appear on the areas of the skin that are most exposed to the sun, such as the face, arms and shoulders.
-
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation: After skin injuries, such as acne, burns or injuries, hyperpigmentation may occur in the healed area.
What causes hyperpigmentation?
Melanin is a natural pigment that gives color to our skin, hair and eyes. Hyperpigmentation is caused by increased production of melanin. Several factors can trigger increased melanin production, but the main ones are:
- Sunlight: Exposure of the skin to sunlight stimulates the production of melanin as a protective reaction. This can lead to darkening of the skin or the appearance of brown spots, especially in people who are more prone to hyperpigmentation.
-
Hormonal changes: Hormonal changes, such as pregnancy (melasma or "mask of pregnancy") or taking certain hormonal medications, can trigger increased melanin production.
-
Inflammatory reactions: Inflammation of the skin, such as acne or other inflammatory conditions, can stimulate the production of melanin and lead to dark spots or scars on the skin.
-
Aging skin: Over the years, sun damage and other types of damage can accumulate and can cause hyperpigmentation.
-
Genetics: Some people have a genetic predisposition to develop hyperpigmentation.
