DO YOU SUFFER FROM AN UNEVEN SKIN TONE?

Spread the love

Millions upon
millions of people have an uneven skin tone, which can be rather embarrassing
and cause confidence and insecurity issues. So what causes an uneven skin
tone?  Why do you have this? First of all
everyone has pigment in their skin, it is called Melanin, which I am sure you
are aware of. For example, a darker skinned person has more melanin in their
skin than a fairer
skinned person.  Melanin is produced by
cells in the upper layer of your skin called the epidermis.  Melanin, a chemical is responsible for
changing the color of your skin, which is determined genetically.

Genes tell your
cells how much Melanin to release, and UV rays also tell your cells to release
more Melanin to areas exposed to the sun. This is why wearing sun screen is
crucial for the long term.
MOST COMMON CAUSES
OF UNEVEN SKIN TONE
MELASA: Melasma is
a condition that is a result of hyper-pigmentation and results in brownish to
tan splotches on your skin. In women who are
pregnant this is known as the “mask
of pregnancy”, and is due to hormonal changes.
VITILIGO: Vitiligo
is an outcome of Hypo-pigmentation. The result is having white patches on your
skin, and it is believed to be due to your immune system attacking your melanin
producing cells.
AGE SPOTS: Although
names age spots, can appear at any age, and these are primarily
caused by sun exposure,
and can appear years after excessive exposure. Melanocytes, which are skin
cells usually appear years after the sun exposure. Age spots are areas where
pigment has collected, therefore leaving your skin with blotchy dark patches.
Age spots can also occur due to bruising, due to blood pool sitting in one spot
for a period of time.
POST INFLAMMATORY
HYPER-PIGMENTATION: This is darkening of certain areas of your skin, and is
primarily caused by scarring. This scarring is usually from acne damage,
and skin lesions.

Those are the most
common reasons for an uneven skin
tone, which can cause self image issues. BUT they CAN be treated, and with
patience and persistence can be eliminated, returning your skin back to its
beautiful state it was once in!
