Nature with Science to Create ———————————————————————————————— HYPERPIGMENTATION OVERVIEW Melanin is the pigment that gives color to the skin. The purpose of melanin production is protect the nucleic acid of the cells. Therefore, we must keep in mind that tanning is s protective mechanism and must not be abused. Over exposure to sun light can cause damage to nucleic acids, cell membranes, proteins (collagen and elastin), and induce inflammation. All of which can lead to hyperpigmentation, premature aging, and cancer. Different Pathologies Of Hyperpigmentation Melasma is a reasonably common pathology of hyperpigmentation particularly in women of child-bearing age. It appears to be motivated by hormones and has been considered to arise from pregnancy, oral contraceptives, endocrine dysfunction, genetic factors, and medications. However, the majority of cases appear to be related to pregnancy and/or oral contraceptives. Although a few familial cases have been described, melasma should not be considered a heritable disorder. The hallmark of melasma is a mask of hyperpigmentation that can cover the forehead, cheeks, and chin. However it usually affects the cheek area far more than the rest of the face. The tendency to develop melasma is exacerbated by sunlight in susceptible individuals. Post inflammatory hyperpigmentation is increased melanin arising in response to stimulation from inflammatory mediators, whose object is to heal the area and return it to normal. The result is an over production of melanin. The amount of melanin in excess can be related to the amount of inflammation induced. When inflammation subsides, the inflammatory mediators revert to normal levels and so does the production of pigmentation. In time, the hyperpigmented cells (dark skin cells) can rise to the top of the skin and fall off resulting in a clearing of the hyperpigmentation. However, if the inflammation was too great the hyperpigmentation will stay even after the inflammatory mediators revert to their normal levels. The end result is areas of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Post inflammatory hyperpigmentation can be brought on by anything that causes inflammation in the skin. The most common causes are over exposure inflammatory mediators such as burns from heat, chemicals or sun light.
