Dealing with Freckles

The appearance of hyperpigmentation on the skin in any form (melasma, spots) is never welcome, as it forces us to wear makeup constantly to hide them and give a uniform tone to our skin.

The causes of their appearance are related to hormonal factors (pregnancy), sun exposure, taking certain medications (contraceptives and antidepressants), post-traumatic reaction (acne) and of course the genetically predetermined increased photosensitivity of some skin.

At the points where the pigmented lesions appear, there is an overproduction of melanin by the melanocytes in relation to the adjacent ones, which unfortunately is not definitively reversible. This in practice means that no matter what treatment we do, the damage at the cellular level will always be there, the pigments just fade to a degree and do not disappear.

Bleaching treatments are based on a set of bleaches, antioxidants and anti-inflammatory substances, are always done in winter and are accompanied by special treatment at home, both during the treatment and after maintenance.

Experience has shown that hyperpigmentation responds better in the long run with mild rather than very aggressive treatments (eg laser), where we risk after a few months the damage will return more severe and to a greater extent.
