Real Reasons Behind Skin Darkening & Pigmentation '

Ever wondered why your skin sometimes turns darker or uneven? It's not just about sun exposure& ! 

Your skin can darken for many reasons - both internal & external factors. Here’s a sharing of why this happens—and some surprising facts you may not know! 

Sun Exposure Is Sneakier Than You Think! 

You probably know the sun causes your skin to darken, but did you know it triggers melanin production to protect your skin? This natural process causes skin to turn dark or tan, but prolonged sun exposure can cause dark spots, also known as hyperpigmentation. &

Pro Tip: Always apply sunscreen (even on cloudy days or indoors) to shield skin from UV damage and dark spots.  (Read more about sun protection here. *link to previous article)

Tiny Breakouts, Dark Acne Marks!

Ever noticed that even tiny pimples can lead to stubborn dark marks? This is known as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. When your skin experiences inflammation from acne, irritation, or even minor injuries, it reacts by producing excess melanin. This can result in dark spots that stay long after the initial breakout has healed!

Surprising Fact: These dark marks can stick around for weeks or even months! However, the good news is that they can fade with time, or treatments (faster)!

Hormones Can Darken Your Skin Too

Hormonal changes - from pregnancy or birth control pills or menopause, can lead to melasma, patchy dark spots. It’s not just about the sun; your hormones also play a significant role as estrogen increases melanin production, leading to these patches typically found on the forehead and cheeks.

Skin’s Natural Healing Can Leave Dark Marks 3

Your skin is remarkable at self-healing, but it sometimes overproduces melanin in the process. If you've noticed a cut or scratch healing darker than your natural skin tone, this is due to your body's protective mechanism.
