5 Ways To Correct Hyperpigmentation
Hyperpigmentation is a serious skin issue for many people. It occurs when patches of the skin become darker than the surrounding skin. Skin contains melanin, a pigment in our skin that produces its natural color. HYPER means excessive. Therefore, hyperpigmentation is excessive pigmentation in a single area. It can be caused by a number of reasons ranging from too much summer sun, skin conditions such as acne, in-grown hairs or even accidents such as cuts, burns or scratches.
This uneven skin tone can range from very mild to very severe. Those men and women with severe hyperpigmentation often suffer great distress. Advances in skincare products and the sophistication of today’s active ingredients, there is no need to suffer. There are many options for correcting this prevalent skin issue.
While a majority of the treatments for hyperpigmentation involve manual exfoliation such as microdermabrasion, Dermaplaning or laser resurfacing. Many skincare professionals suggest an alternate path, recommending the use of chemical peels, and skincare products containing actives that include brightening agents to correct the issue.
