Pigmentation Is More Than A Skin Patch
It is a skin condition where in some parts of your skin turn
darker in color. Such kind of condition happens due to the brown
pigment called melanin in the skin. People of all color, skin
types can be affected by such kind of pigmentation. One can even
have age spots, also called as liver spots are a form of hyper
pigmentation and is basically caused due to the damage to the
skin by the sun. These can be seen on hands and face and any
part of the body which is exposed to the sun.
It can also happen if you have suffered from some skin
infection, blisters, burns and any other reason. This kind of
trauma to your skin can cause pigmentation which may not be
permanent but may take enough time to get back to normal. In
other terms over-exposure to sun may cause skin pigmentation. To
avoid such kind of pigmentation one should take care while going
out in the sun with protective clothing or use one of the best
sunscreen which would help in fighting the blinding sun light.
This exposure fastens the aging process and can also lead to
formation of wrinkles, age spots and freckles. Such an
overexposure can also lead to skin cancer.
While moving out of the house you should wear full sleeves,
cotton clothes and ample amount of sunscreen to prevent the tan.
You should also see to it that the use of sunscreen is not only
for your face but all the parts which is exposed such as your
arms and legs. Drinking good amount of water also helps. Use
lemon to scrub on the pigmented surface as it is a bleaching
agent and would lighten you skin color.
