The biggest culprit is excessive sun exposure, which disrupts the skin’s natural protective response and prompts overproduction of melanin (and subsequent hyperpigmentation). Ageing, hormones, trauma to skin caused by conditions such as eczema and acne, certain medications, and skin injuries (like cuts, burns or even attacking a pimple) can also lead to hyperpigmentation as our body’s healing response triggers increased melanin. How to treat pigmentation The visible effects of hyperpigmentation can be smoothed and brightened with skincare that champions ingredients such as Vitamin C, Vitamin A (Retinol), Niacinamide, and Alpha- Hydroxy Acids (AHA). Vitamin C helps to brighten skin and fade hyperpigmentation by interacting with Copper at the active site of tyrosinase, the enzyme that signals melanin production. Complemented by Niacinamide, which helps to inhibit the transfer of melanin from melanocytes, minimising changes to pigmentation. Glycolic Acid performs a gentle chemical exfoliation, supporting cell turnover to shed discoloured, damaged cells.
