Enim ad minim veniam.

The Origin of Dark Spots: Understanding the Causes 

Dark spots, a type of hyperpigmentation, appear as uneven, darker skin areas caused by an overproduction of melanin (the skin's natural pigment) and excessive stimulation of cells that produce melanin and transport it to the skin's surface. 

Various factors contribute to dark spots on the face. External triggers include sun exposure, pollution (leading to oxidative stress), certain medications, wound healing, and skin injury from acne (resulting in post-acne marks). Internal triggers encompass hormonal changes (e.g., pregnancy & menopause), genetic heritage, and specific diseases (e.g., diabetes). 

 

Who is Most Affected? 

  1. Women with darker skin tones 
  2. Women living in countries with intense sunlight and pollution 
  3. Women who experience acne  
  4. Pregnant women/hormone changes 
 

Did you know? Hyperpigmentation can occur long after the initial cell damage, making preventative skincare routines essential.
