"A lot of people think
"A lot of people think when their skin goes dark, the only cause is the sun or tanning. A lot of people come to me saying that they’ve used this particular sunscreen and the tan or whatever it is, the pigmentation is ,its not getting better. But let us look at what are the common cases of pigmentation or skin becoming dark on the face . When we see patchy or localized areas of skin going dark, one of the common causes could be just friction. A have a habit of rubbing the face after having a shower or during the face when it is sweating and frequent same repetitive actions on the skin makes the skin thicker and makes the skin look darker. Another common reason could just be weight gain. When patients gain weight, their insulin levels increase and that Insulin causes a skin thickening and it is classically seen on the forehead area, neck area and the underarm area as darkening. So when you have associated areas of darkening like this , then it could bethe weight which is causing the face to go darker. Third reason is frequent change of so called fairness creams. These fairness creams contain ingredients which actually sensitise the skin and make the skin go darker. Similarly use of chemicals such as bleaches like hair colours which could trickle onto the face, could also cause the face to go dark. We also see in some people taking certain medicines makes their skin go dark especially anti tuberculous treatment, even anti diabetic treatment can also make your face go darker than usually was. Even as we become older it causes our face to become darker and these are the few causes of pigmentation. When the causes of pigmentation are so many, obviously the treatment is also so many. Treat you unless we diagnose the root cause. Meet your dermatologist today.
