Do you have persistent acne scars, growing spots, and even makeup that can’t cover them up? Are you having a hard time whitening your skin? In fact, the “driving force behind all this” is pigmentation.
PART.01
What is pigmentation?
Pigmentation refers to the phenomenon that the skin is overproduced or unevenly distributed with melanin, which causes the color of the area to be darker than the surrounding skin, such as sun spots and acne marks. Its essence is the abnormal function or metabolic imbalance of melanocytes.
Under normal circumstances, melanin gradually migrates to the surface of the skin and is metabolized during the metabolic cycle. If the metabolic rate slows down or melanin synthesis exceeds the metabolic capacity, the melanin produced cannot be completely shed with the stratum corneum and eliminated through blood circulation, and will be deposited in the local skin, forming pigmentation.
PART.02
What to do if pigmentation “refuses to go away”?
It is worth mentioning that pigmentation can also be affected by many factors such as excessive sun exposure, endocrine disorders, 염증, staying up late, 등., which can lead to its severity. Therefore, prevention or improvement of pigmentation needs to start from many aspects:
01 Do a good job of sun protection
If the sun protection is not in place, the melanocytes will continue to be excited under the stimulation of ultraviolet rays, causing the sunburn to worsen.
02 Regulate emotions
Negative emotions can cause hormone levels to fluctuate, leading to endocrine disorders and slowing down the metabolism and excretion of melanin.
03 Scientific skin care
Improper skin care methods can easily induce skin inflammation, which in turn causes inflammatory pigmentation.
04 Healthy Lifestyle
Bad living habits can affect blood circulation and metabolic efficiency, interfere with hormone balance, and accelerate melanin synthesis and deposition.
PART 03
Light therapy becomes a new solution for pigmentation
In addition, there are many ways to improve pigmentation clinically, and red light therapy has been highly praised in recent years because it is non-invasive, gentle, highly safe, and has the dual effects of repairing and improving pigmentation.
Numerous clinical literatures indicate that red light exposure can accelerate the metabolism of local tissues, reduce the synthesis rate of melanosomes in melanocytes, and promote the migration and metabolism of melanin particles from the epidermal basal layer to the stratum corneum, thereby effectively reducing pigmentation.
At the same time, it can promote collagen synthesis, repair damaged skin barriers, reduce skin inflammatory reactions, and significantly improve skin pigmentation symptoms including spots and acne.
The MERICAN collagen whitening cabin based on red light therapy integrates the multi-ratio composite light source technology developed in cooperation with the German team, which can produce biological effects on the whole body. This effect can effectively reduce spots, improve dullness, wrinkles and other problems, and comprehensively improve the health of the skin by promoting metabolism, regulating melanin balance, repairing barriers and other mechanisms.
Finally, improving pigmentation is not something that can be achieved overnight. It requires patience and persistence on the basis of choosing the right scientific care plan. I hope everyone can regain healthy skin through scientific conditioning day after day.
