Pigmentation Treatment

Skin whitening is the process of reducing the concentration of the pigment called “melanin” in order to lighten the skin color. Various chemical substances are used for this purpose. However, these chemicals must be applied with the right dose and method, otherwise they can cause undesirable effects on the skin. The skin whitening process aims to lighten the skin color, especially in darkened areas. This process helps to even out the skin tone and achieve a healthier, smoother and brighter skin appearance.

Skin Whitening Methods

There are different methods for skin whitening. The decision on which method to use should be made after a specialist’s examination. Creams and natural mixtures used at home can also be preferred for skin whitening. However, the effect of such applications may be limited and long-term use may be required to get results. In addition, applications made at home may increase the risk of skin irritation and permanent damage. Therefore, it is recommended that you definitely get support from a specialist for skin whitening. Here are some skin whitening methods used:

Medical Cream Applications: Medical creams can be preferred for light blemishes and darkening. It can be used with a doctor’s advice for newly formed blemishes. These creams include regular use and protection from the sun with skin care. As a result of these applications, the color of the blemishes may lighten and darkening may decrease. However, long-term and regular use may be required for the effect.

Medical Care Applications: Chemical peeling and medical skin care procedures can also be used for skin whitening. Chemical peeling should be done carefully because incorrect applications can lead to skin burns and permanent blemishes. In chemical peeling, the upper layer of the skin is peeled off and a new layer comes from underneath. After this application, the skin dries and falls off, then a new layer of skin appears. Medical care applications can be effective in mild darkening.

Natural Skin Whitening: Natural skin whitening can also be preferred, but its effectiveness is lower compared to medical methods. Natural methods generally aim to whiten the skin with the acids they contain. However, long-term and continuous applications may be required to achieve results. Such applications can sometimes cause allergic reactions.
