10 Sep Sheldene’s Thoughts on pigmentation

Out damn spot! Is the quote from Shakespeare’s lady Macbeth as she struggles to remove the stubborn spot from her hand, no matter how many times she washes – it returns. This reminds me of our struggle to achieve a flawless complexion – Pigmentation spots returning no matter what we do to get rid of them. I do believe that overzealous photo-shopping, has created an impossible ideal when it comes to unblemished skin. There are so many factors contributing to hyperpigmentation – hormone imbalances, inflammatory responses, sun exposure – to combat the problem, it needs to be a multi-pronged approach. If you truly want to get rid of your pigmentation spots for once and for all, you simply must face the fact that you may no longer expose your face to the sun. After months of treatment to correct the problem, a moment of unprotected sun exposure can take you right back to where you were before you started treatment.

I have found the use of the Lamelle Ovelle D3 skin daily supplement, which supplies blend of potent ingredients to further inhibit hyperpigmentation and enhances collagen production, together with a broad spectrum sunscreen which contain ingredients to aid pigment suppression (such as the Heliocare Neoretin Gelcream SPF 50 or Heliocare 360 Pigment Solution Fluid Spf 50, to be most effective additions to my usual skin care routine.
