Let’s start with the science<\/strong><\/span>!\u00a0Melanin is a pigment that is naturally present in most people’s skin, and people with medium and dark skin tones simply have more melanin than those with lighter skin tones. However, in some cases, excess amounts of melanin can form in the skin. This leads to what’s known as hyperpigmentation, where a particular area of skin appears darker than the skin around it.\u00a0The skin is made up of different tissue layers. The outermost of these layers is the epidermis, and the dermis lies just below it.\u00a0Hyperpigmentation can affect the epidermis, the dermis, or both.<\/p>\n

Generally speaking, hyperpigmentation that affects the epidermis is easier to treat, even if it can sometimes take months for the dark spots or blemishes to fade.\u00a0Dermal hyperpigmentation, on the other hand, is more difficult to treat, and may even become permanent.\u00a0Hyperpigmentation is common in people with dark skin, and is in fact one of the five most frequently diagnosed skin conditions in this group. It’s often caused by acne (and particularly the scars left by spots on the face). And while hyperpigmentation may be completely harmless, it can impact your self confidence and your quality of life. This is why it’s important to find a skincare routine that will fade\u00a0dark spots and blemishes<\/a><\/b><\/span>, so your complexion looks more even again.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n\n\n
