Typology anti-spot serums

Which Typology skincare products should I use to combat dark spots on my face? 

Facial skin can suffer from a number of diseases and conditions, such as acne, blackheads... Among them, there are also facial spots or pigmentation marks. Although not really serious, these spots are nevertheless quite visible and can ruin your life. But where exactly do these spots come from? What can you do to get rid of them or reduce their effects? My opinion on Typology

Pigmentation spots: what are they?

Pigment spots are, as the name suggests, small spots that appear on the face. These brown, oval-shaped spots correspond to areas of discoloration caused by excessive melanin production. In the majority of cases, these spots appear on the skin of the face, but it is sometimes possible to have brown spots on the shoulders, décolleté, upper back or even on the backs of the hands. Contrary to popular belief, it's not just fair-skinned people who can get brown spots. In fact, brown spots can affect all skin types and shades.

When they appear, these spots are harmless to your health. However, if their appearance changes (size, shape, color), or if they start to itch or even bleed, it's imperative to consult a dermatologist to check for cancer or another disease. In the majority of cases, spots on the face are not very serious as far as your health is concerned. From an aesthetic point of view, however, it's more complex. Many people have a very hard time coping with this situation. And don't be fooled into thinking that hiding your brown spots under thick layers of make-up is a good idea. Your skin won't be able to breathe properly, which can be very harmful.

What causes pigmentation spots?

There are many reasons why brown spots can appear on your face. The main cause is skin aging caused by too much unprotected exposure to the sun. Indeed, most people want to enjoy the benefits of the sun, especially in summer, without worrying about the consequences. However, in the long term, the sun's UV rays can be harmful to the skin and even to your health.

Apart from this, brown spots can also appear as a result of hormonal imbalances during pregnancy or when taking the contraceptive pill. Taking certain photo-sensitizing medications can also be a cause of brown spots. Finally, brown spots can also have a genetic origin.

Typology's best treatments for pigmentation spots

To prevent or reduce the presence of dark spots on the face, it's perfectly possible to adopt a certain routine, using the right skin care products of course. In fact, Typology has developed a whole range of anti-brown spot skin care products that you can apply to your face without any risk. First and foremost, you need to protect your skin from the sun, which is the main cause of pigmentation spots. So why not opt for a sun cream containing hyaluronic acid? This sun cream offers excellent protection and helps prevent photo-aging. 

When it comes to the skincare products to apply to your skin every day, give priority to tranexamic acid-based products, vitamin C-based products for their antioxidant properties, and glycolic acid-based products for their brightening properties. These products will nourish and regenerate your skin. But remember, the most important thing is to avoid over-exposing your skin to the sun. So protect yourself from UV rays with sun creams, and don't stay in the sun for too long.
