Skin problems are some of the most frequent health problems
people from all over the world have to face. If you are one of those people who
has to find deal with darkening skin and brown spots on some areas of your
body, then you should know how your skin functions in order to find the perfect remedy for your problem and at the same time to understand which are the best
ways in which you can prevent their apparition.
The first thing you need to know about the skin color is
that it is made up of three main components: melanin, carotene and blood
vessels. Each of these components has a great role in establishing the skin
color of an individual. Thus, the presence of melanin gives skin a darker tint,
the carotene is responsible for offering the skin that yellowish color specific
to the people with Asian ancestors, while the vessels which can be seen through
the skin usually give it the reddish or pinkish nuance. These components in
most of the cases combine, thus resulting the individual’s skin color.
As you could probably guess, those dark patches of skin or brown
spots you have to deal with are mostly due to the increased production of
melanin. This substance, responsible with skin darkening has also the role of
preventing the UV rays coming from the sun to affect or damage in any way the
layers of skin or the sweat glands. Thus, in case of exposure to sun, the
amount of melanin is increasing, the so called tan appearing. When the melanin
is no longer able to counterbalance the effects of sun, the sunburns and skin
damages appear. Also, because patches of skin respond differently to sun’s
aggression, dark patches or brown spots that will remain permanently on your
skin may appear.
This is why it is highly important to keep your skin away
from the sun rays as much as possible, especially if you have a white type of
skin, as white skin lacks melanin, which makes it more vulnerable to skin burns
and eventually scars which will affect your skin all your life.
