If you know what hyperpigmentation is and how it develops, you have already taken a big step towards preventing it. JUNGLÜCK has the right skincare product for every skin change to quickly fade melasma, spots and pigmentation marks.
Age spots and melasma: Recognize the differences
Age spots and melasma are two common skin changes that are often mistakenly used interchangeably. We have summarized the differences between the two hyperpigmentations for you:
-
Age spots: These flat, brown or black spots often occur in older people and are usually harmless. As long as they retain their shape and color, they do not require medical treatment.
-
Melasma: This hormonal skin disease mainly affects women of childbearing age. The pigment spots are larger, symmetrical and typically appear to face. The hormonally induced brown spots on the skin can be stubborn and require targeted treatment approaches.
Although age spots and melasma are both forms of hyperpigmentation, they differ in their causes and manifestations.
Understanding these differences is crucial in order to choose the right treatment methods to remove pigmentation spots.
Understanding pigmentation disorders: from café-au-lait spots to freckles
Pigment disorders are skin changes caused by an uneven distribution of melanin. The most common types include so-called
- Café-au-lait stains,
- Freckles,
- Age spots (lentigines),
- Melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Similar to freckles, café-au-lait spots are light brown to dark brown harmless, round or oval-shaped spots with clear edges.
Age spots are a pigment disorder that occurs more frequently with increasing age, while post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is usually caused by skin injuries or inflammation.
Most pigmentation disorders on the skin are harmless, but have a significant impact on the appearance of the skin. You can prevent acne and spots by taking proper care of blemished skin. This includes
