PIGMENTATION
What does that mean?
Skin pigmentation refers to the natural color of our skin, which is determined by melanocytes, pigment-forming cells in the skin. These cells are genetically determined and are part of our DNA. Darkening of the skin (hyperpigmentation) is often caused by an overproduction of melanin to protect the skin barrier. This overproduction can be triggered by factors such as trauma, hormonal changes, certain medications, UV radiation or environmental influences. Skin pigmentation is divided into three main types:
– Epidermal pigmentation (superficial layers)
– Dermal/melasma pigmentation (deeper skin layers)
– Mixed pigmentation (combination of both)
How does this manifest itself?
Pigmentation problems can manifest themselves in various forms, including
– Hyperpigmentation (dark spots) or hypopigmentation (light spots)
– Post-inflammatory pigmentation (after injuries or inflammation)
– Freckles, age spots or sun spots
– Melasma/chloasma (often hormonal)
– Poikiloderma of Civatte (mixture of pigment disorders, redness and skin thinning)
What can I do?
– Sun protection: Apply SPF 30/50 daily and renew it regularly to protect the skin from further damage.
– Pigment inhibitors: Use skin care products that contain active ingredients that can regulate melanin production and lighten existing pigmentation.
Consistent skin care and protection are essential to minimize and prevent pigmentation problems.
