Jamsil Station Dermatology Clinic - From the Causes of Melasma and Hyperpigmentation to Prevention Methods

Jamsil Station Dermatology Clinic

Do you notice more and more blemishes on your face as you get older?

Especially if you are worried because you have more blemishes such as melasma and freckles on your cheekbones or the sides of your face!

If you do not usually use sunscreen, or do not pay close attention to it,

in your 30s, 40s... as time passes, you may notice pigments that become darker and increase in number.

The main causes vary depending on the individual, but let’s take a closer look at what factors are involved and how to prevent them.

These are the cases in which pigment care is recommended

People whose pigmented areas have been gradually increasing compared to before,

People whose melasma, blemishes, and other spots have not improved with existing care,

People who are worried about blemishes such as 오래된 melasma,

People who suddenly feel their face looks dull and dirty,

People who need a diagnosis because the shape or size is not typical,

People who want to remove pigment in sensitive areas can also receive care through a dermatologist.

Various causes of pigment such as melasma and blemishes

At first glance, it may look like melasma, but it could actually be freckles, lentigines, or another pigment lesion.

Some pigments may look similar but be completely different, and in severe cases, even if no special abnormalities are found, there may be cases that require treatment, such as refractory pigmentation.

So, checking your pigment condition and getting a diagnosis for what type it is can also be a way to manage it.

These pigments can also form due to aging, but

they can occur for various reasons such as UV exposure, genetic factors, hormonal changes, irregular lifestyle habits, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

The methods for preventing hyperpigmentation are as follows

The results of prevention differ from person to person, but in general, maintaining healthy lifestyle habits, avoiding irritation to the skin, and paying careful attention to skin moisturization can help keep the skin clearer.

In particular, sun protection is recommended as essential, not optional.

Because ultraviolet rays accelerate skin aging, it is helpful to carefully reapply a sunscreen with at least SPF 30 when active indoors or outdoors.

In fact, it is easy to find comparison cases between people who consistently used sunscreen and those who did not.

Personalized skin correction to improve the underlying cause

Even for the same pigment lesion, the removal method varies depending on an individual’s skin type, condition, thickness, and other factors.

It may also be improved through combined care.

Rather than a temporary improvement, we recommend managing it so that it can continue to improve by addressing the underlying cause.
