Dark Skin - Tips for managing Dark Skin

Dark skin tends to scar and develops dark blemishes and marks. Dark skin is all about the hyperpigmentation of the skin. Hyperpigmentation occurs when certain skin cells release more pigment i.e. dark color. Dark skin can result from sun exosure and may sometimes occur from redness and bruising.

Darkening of the skin may be due to " blueness " is called cyanosis or purple skin. Certain chemicals and dietary items can also changes the skin color. Skin darkening or hyperpigmentation can be the symptom of severe diseases i.e. Addison's disease and Scleroderma.

It doesn't matter, what type of your skin is, but a universal tendency is that skin tends to darken when expose to sun. Dark skin protects against those skin cancers that are caused by mutations in skin cells induced by ultraviolet light. Due to having more pigment in dark skin, it can withstand exposure to the sun much better.

Dark skin prevents UV-A radiation from destroying the essential B vitamin folate. Folate is needed for the synthesis of DNA in dividing cells and too low levels of folate in pregnant women are associated with birth defects. A darker skin is more prone to scarring and hyperpigmentation. Dark skin protects vitamin B, it can lead to a vitamin D deficiency.

Tips for darker skin:-

  • Irritation may lead to disfiguring hyperpigmentation. The products that may irritates the dark skin includes: fragrance, alcohol, propylene glycol, dye and lanolin.
  • Dark-skinned people who live in less sun-intensive regions often lack Vitamin D.
  • For removing dirt, oil and makeup, always cleanse your skin. But avoid abrasive cleansers, which can irritate skin of color.
  • Cleansing too often or too roughly will harm the dark skin.
  • Avoid using home microdermabrasion and chemical peel kits too roughly. Use according to the directions and discontinue use if irritation occurs.
