Pigmentation and Age Spots

Treat dark discolourations and achieve an even, glowing completion.

Pigmentation and age spots are common skin problems many people experience as they age. These dark spots, also known as liver spots or sun spots, generally appear on areas of the skin frequently exposed to the sun, such as the face, hands, shoulders and arms. Although usually harmless, they can be an aesthetic problem for people seeking a more even, rejuvenated complexion.

Causes and Prevention

Pigmentation and age spots are mainly caused by prolonged exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays. Over time, these rays accelerate the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin colour, leading to the formation of dark spots. Other factors contributing to pigmentation include genetics, hormonal changes and certain medications.

Preventing pigmentation and age spots means protecting your skin from UV exposure. Regularly using a broad-spectrum sunscreen, wearing protective clothing, and seeking shade during peak sunlight are effective measures. In addition, incorporating antioxidants into your skincare program can help protect your skin from further damage.
