What is hyperpigmentation?
Hyperpigmentation occurs when the skin overproduces melanin (the natural pigments produced in our cells responsible for our skin, hair and eye colour) within specific areas. It tends to appear on the face and hands as darkened patches or spots that can vary in size and colour.
While hyperpigmentation is usually harmless, it’s still a common skin complaint as it can cause skin to look uneven and less bright.
What causes hyperpigmentation?
A number of things can trigger an increase in melanin production, however the main cause is sun damage – which is why SPF is your BFF! Hormonal changes, ageing and past inflammation like acne are other possible causes of hyperpigmentation.
How can hyperpigmentation be prevented?
Not all causes of hyperpigmentation can be prevented, but there are a number of ways to help reduce the chances of it developing:
• Try to keep out of the sun between 10am to 4pm when the sun's UV rays are strongest
• Use a sunscreen daily, even in cooler months. Why not try Eucerin’s SPF products?
• Sit in the shade or underneath an umbrella as much as possible to minimise sun exposure
• Wear protective clothing in the sun, such as sun hats and sunglasses
• Avoid scratching or picking at acne, spots or scabs
What can help with hyperpigmentation?
Speaking to a dermatologist is always a great place to start as they can help diagnose the underlying cause of your hyperpigmentation and give you a plan of action to help treat it.
If you'd prefer to address it yourself, the Eucerin Anti-Pigment range has products that slip seamlessly into your skincare routine to even out skin tone and restore your natural glow in just two weeks.*
Choose from two powerhouse serums containing Thiamidol, an effective and patented ingredient that acts at the root cause of hyperpigmentation by reducing melanin production and helping to support the reduction of visible dark spots or pigment spots.
