Pigmentation is one of the most common skin concerns, especially for mature skin. It appears when the skin locally produces too much melanin, the pigment that gives your skin its colour. The good news: with the right, natural approach you can even out the complexion and help prevent new spots.
How pigmentation develops
Pigmentation usually belongs to extrinsic ageing, the ageing that comes from the outside. UV radiation is by far the biggest cause: the sun triggers melanin production, and after years of exposure this builds up into visible spots. Hormonal changes, inflammation (for example after blemishes) and the natural ageing of the skin also play a role. That is why pigment mostly appears on areas that catch a lot of sun, such as the face, neck and hands.
What really helps against pigment
An even complexion asks for a combination of fading, renewing and protecting, rather than one miracle product.
Fade and even out. The Balancing line with retinol and salicylic acid regulates the skin, stimulates cell renewal and helps fade pigmentation for a more even tone. A lovely choice for sun- and age-driven pigment.
Renew. The Cell Recovery line with antioxidants and Q10 supports cell renewal, so the skin looks more even and feels fresher.
Protect. This is the most important step. Without daily SPF, spots keep returning, also indoors and on cloudy days. A mineral SPF is the best insurance for any result you build.
One step further with Meta Therapy
For a more intensive approach, a Meta Therapy treatment stimulates natural cell renewal and improves the absorption of active ingredients. This way the treatment works from within towards a more even, fresher skin, while your home routine keeps the result on track.
In short
Pigment mainly comes from the sun, so evening out and protecting go hand in hand: Balancing to fade, Cell Recovery to renew and SPF to prevent. Curious what suits your skin? Take the free skin analysis for personal advice.
