Hyperpigmentation?

---

I have freckles, I would say they are moderate meaning the amount. I was reading about hyperpigmentation and I believe they said freckles are a form of that. I wanted to ask if someone can tell me more about it, if that is a form of it, and if it is harmful for me to be going to the tanning bed, can someone tell me more about tanning and freckles. Thanks a bunch!!
I have freckles...and I have lived with them all my life!

Tanning beds just made my freckles (on my face) darker and stand out more....Also...I am so fair skinned...that even with the best protection...I burned in tanning beds....

Best bet...use those bronzers...that is what I do from time to time...  (+ info)

You can try the below home remedy

After cleaning your face you can make a pack by mixing Fuller's earth/multani mitti, sandalwood powder, banana and juices of cucumber, tomato and sweet lime. Banana has tendency to bind the skin and help it tone better.

Drink lots of water and include fresh fruits and vegetables to ur diet.

Hyperpigmentation or dark brown colors. I have these things near my joints of my fingers and toe nails, and its very embarrassing since I'm light colored and have to use my fingers almost every single time.

Is there any home remedies that can do to remove these marks, please help thanks.
See a dermatologist or do some research on all natural bleaching agents. Also WEAR SUNSCREEN. I suffer from hyper pigmentation as well and used a bleaching cream for certain spots for months and it worked. But then the moment I went into the sun w/o sunscreen everything go super dark again.

PS Hydroquinone is known to be a cause cancer.  (+ info)

How does hydroquinone turn skin darker and cause hyperpigmentation?

---

If hydroquinone blocks cells from making pigment then how can it sometimes have the bad effect of making the skin overall darker and hyperpigment? Hydroquinone is supposed to make skin lighter but I read that is can also make skin darker as a side effect and also cause hyperpigmentation? But how does it do this? I mean what is the reasoning behind this bad side effect?
probably bc you need to use sunblock while wearing it and some people wont. so itll turn the skin dark, from sun expsosure while on the product..  (+ info)

How long does it take hyperpigmentation caused by acne fade away?

---

I'm afro-american and I have acne which causes whiteheads. When these whiteheads burst they cause scarring (hyperpigmentation). How long does it take for them to fade away and what can be used to help quicken the rate without Hydroquinone.
dear , dermatological problems generally taking along time to heal,specially the acne scarring ,so at least it may take a weeks to fade away , you can use a sulfur containing soap to help your skin to fade ,but you have to be carefull sometimes sulfer can cause skin allergy then you have to stop it,but i dont advice you to start useing hydroquinone now and give your skin a chance to heal it self.   (+ info)

Are there any home remedies for hyperpigmentation?

---

I have ultra sensitive skin and b/c of sun exposure i am prone to hyperpigmentation. Most chemiclas products burn my skin instead of working so i was wondering if there are any effective home remedies to help my situation.
since you asked about a home remedy, please grow a plant aloe vera....and apply the gelly of aloevera to the sun exposed areas. The liver function should be proper in your case.....you can also eat a half teaspoon of aloevera mixed with sugar every day morning for 15 days....and give a gap of 15 days and then eat again do this atleast for a year.....your liver gets stimulated to release sufficient fats for your skin......

use kalisulph 6x .......4 tablets (chewing) 2 times a day till you get rid of the problem......this is a biochemic available with homeopathic stores in your area.  (+ info)

How can I prevent hyperpigmentation when taking a contraceptive?

---

i am 15 and might have to take a contraceptive in order to regulate my period, how can i prevent getting hyperpigmentation?
it is a huge prob. for me
i wear a sunscreen
I wouldn't worry about it. I've been taking birth control pills since I was seventeen (I'm nearly 21 now), and I've never had any problems. Most of my friends are taking them too, and they haven't had any hyperpigmentation either. If anything, my skin got way, way clearer and better looking after I started taking them. You'd be more likely to get it from tanning too much.

If you do get hyperpigmentation, see a dermatologist. It'll probably just be from taking whatever kind of birth control pills you're prescribed, so changing the dosage or the medication itself should fix it.  (+ info)
