Skin Whitening Secrets: Get Rid of Hyperpigmentation Forever!

Unwanted pigmentation is a common problem that many people face. It may be associated with excessive sun exposure, hormonal imbalances, and age. In any case, age spots are an aesthetic problem. Home care (for example, herbal infusions, whitening masks) is usually not very effective. In-office skin whitening will help solve the problem.

Clinic "BL" offers a service for whitening facial skin from age spots. We use modern hardware techniques - they are effective and completely safe.

How to whiten facial skin

At home, ancient recipes are often used, because folk remedies can very quickly and effectively affect any dermis, regardless of its color.

1. Mash a banana with milk, spread the paste on your face, and leave for 20 minutes. Rinse it with cold water.
2. Excellent remedies are obtained with warm flower honey . Heat the component, apply to the entire surface of the face and neck, and leave for twenty minutes. Afterwards you need to wipe with a washcloth soaked in cold water.

4. Baking soda and lemon juice will help remove signs of dark skin from your face . We combine the ingredients in equal parts, you get an abrasive paste, you need to thoroughly wipe your face with it every two days (if you have dry or sensitive dermis, then less often). Rinse off very carefully, because... the powder can penetrate the pores and disrupt the functioning of the sebaceous glands.
5. After tanning for the face, papaya will be an indispensable assistant. The fruit needs to be cut in half, remove the core, and rub your face over the entire area. We massage very intensively, after which you need to give your face a little more rest, about 10 minutes. Then rinse with warm water without soap.

6. Few people know that turmeric powder (a chicken seasoning), despite its orange color, has long been known for its whitening properties. We will need a spoon of turmeric, a spoon of natural orange juice and a water bath. Mix the ingredients thoroughly, stir until smooth, without lumps, heat the paste in a water bath and spread. This will help whiten almost any stain.

Which whitening cream is best?

When choosing a skin whitening cream, pay attention to the presence and concentration of active ingredients that exfoliate and whiten the skin. These will be:

• Vitamin C is a strong antioxidant that supports the fight against free radicals and thus slows down the aging process. It gently exfoliates and inhibits melanin synthesis, which causes discoloration. Cosmetics with vitamin C are a good addition to acid and retinol treatments. They also enhance the effects of sunscreens, so they are best used during the day.
• Azelaic acid is an ingredient found in many anti-discoloration creams, especially acne products. It inhibits the proliferation of melanocytes, fights bacteria responsible for the development of acne, and normalizes skin peeling processes.
• Retinol - accelerates the process of creating new cells, thereby brightening and smoothing the skin. It is also one of the most effective firming and anti-wrinkle agents in cosmetics. It is indispensable in the fight against photoaging, so it works best with sun protection creams.
• Niacinamide, also known as vitamin B3. It is an extremely versatile beauty ingredient that reduces discoloration, stimulates collagen production in the skin, has anti-inflammatory properties, soothes erythema and tightens sebaceous glands.

These ingredients contained in anti-pigmentation creams have a long-lasting effect - they are very effective, but it takes time to show their full spectrum of action. Use them over several months, in winter, fall and early spring, when the skin is not exposed to high doses of sunlight.

The most effective face whitening cream can be expensive, but you don’t have to overpay, because there are a lot of affordable and good products. Regular use is often more important than price. Every woman needs to regularly apply the product locally or all over the face for at least several weeks.

Whitening hands and feet

If achieving aristocratic whiteness on the face is not as difficult as it seems, then whitening inflamed skin on the elbows, knees, or even more so, heels, is very difficult. We need to act more comprehensively and more harshly.

• Make a paste by mixing mashed banana, warm liquid flower honey, lemon juice and margarine. Apply the mixture and cover them with a breathable natural fabric bandage, say cotton, bandage or gauze. When using on the palms and feet, you can wear cotton work gloves or socks. In the morning, remove the compress, remove the remaining mass with a paper napkin.
• Korean women often use cabbage decoction to whiten their heels after wearing leather shoes. According to reviews, the active elements of this vegetable have a very positive effect on rough skin. The layer of dead cells is removed, the upper part of the epidermis is softened. You will need from 5 to 10 leaves per liter of water, steam for about 20 minutes. You can repeat every day, if desired, add citrus juice to the solution, which contains acid that can whiten any rough areas.
• Blackened skin on your knees can be quickly whitened and exfoliated by rubbing mango and potato puree over the area. Potatoes contain starch, which is known for its bleaching and astringent properties. Grind one fruit and half a vegetable, mix, if desired, you can add a spoonful of milk. Apply a thick layer overnight and leave until morning.
• To remove chafed, brown skin on your heels, elbows, or palms, mix two tablespoons of sugar, lemon juice, and olive oil. The result will be an oily abrasive mixture. Rub intensively over problem areas, then leave the mixture for another 20 minutes.

Body and armpit whitening

In order to whiten the skin in intimate places and not only (armpits, bikini, abdomen) from unnatural color after sunbathing, various improvised products are used at home that contain mild acids that act directly on the middle layers of the epidermis.

1. You can whiten darkened skin with simple Vaseline. It adheres well to the dermis, is inexpensive and is known for its high effectiveness. But this option is not suitable for girls with oily skin, because... the substance clogs pores and prevents the sebaceous glands from working normally. Repeat no more than 2-3 times a month.
2. To get rid of pigmentation on the body, you need to regularly perform procedures that scrub the dermis. The product made from corn flour has proven itself well. Mix corn flour with egg white, apply to the décolleté, thighs, abdomen, buttocks. After an hour, the mixture will completely harden and a dense layer will form, which will help you get rid of scars, wrinkles, moles, and acne. Use no more than once a week.
3. An excellent cream that whitens the skin on the entire body, even from self-tanning, can be prepared using lemon juice, baby moisturizer, glycerin and sugar. Dilute 1 spoon of sugar in lemon juice, stir until dissolved, then mix with three spoons of cream and an ampoule of glycerin (5 grams). Apply to the entire body after a shower, do not rinse. This product will soothe the sensitive dermis, help dry skin get saturated with moisture, and remove dark spots.

To lighten the body in certain areas, you can use citric acid. For a spoonful of powder we will need half a spoonful of mineral water, stir. The result is a very acidic solution, which is what we call dark spots. This method is not suitable for dry skin, but it will be a real boon for combination skin.

How to bleach between legs

The skin whitening agent for the inner thighs should be very gentle, but effective. Hydrogen peroxide helps a lot. You need to dilute a spoonful of the drug with camphor oil, apply with a cotton swab, and leave for 40 minutes.

If you suffer from pimples on the buttocks, then you can use a small amount of syntomycin acid, it is known for its ability to remove red spots after acne on the neck, face, thighs, and chest. This method can also effectively get rid of facial wrinkles under the eyes, in the eyelids and mouth.

Many people recommend rubbing pigmented skin on the thighs with honey and warm milk. In a glass of milk, dilute two tablespoons of honey, dilute it, wipe the desired areas twice a day. You can repeat it every day.

In order to wipe your dignity, it is recommended to use fatty kefir. This solution not only has a great effect on female microflora, it also dries and brightens the skin. You can also add essential oils of orange, grapefruit, lemon or thyme to it, provided there are no allergies.

The Japanese used this recipe differently. To whiten your skin as effectively as possible, you need to add rice, rice extract or rice milk to the milk. Apply, do not rinse. According to representatives of traditional medicine, this method will help not only lighten special areas, but also normalize the condition of combination skin and eliminate the causes of acne and pimples.

Special Recipes

Many whitening products contain hydroquinone, which is extracted from pink salmon. This composition will be harmful for girls who are allergic to fish, so be careful. To prepare an ointment after injuries, mix pink salmon meat, honey and milk. Spread the paste on your teeth and nails, leave for 20 minutes, use small doses (2-3 grams). It will not only get rid of the unsightly color of the yellowed dermis, but will also speed up the healing process.

To whiten problematic facial skin, dissolved apple cider vinegar is often used. For a glass of mineral water you will need two tablespoons of vinegar. Wash your face with this solution once a day for oily skin, once every three days for dry skin. If this method is not suitable due to personal intolerance, you can wipe the face with currants or radish juice.

You can use improvised means to whiten your skin after an allergy at any age, for example, lemon. You will need sour cream, lemon and cosmetic essential oils (the forum claims that it is best to use almond or lemon). Mix everything in equal parts, leave for 20 minutes, repeat every three days.

Chamomile flowers have proven themselves well; they whiten not only the skin, but also the hair. Make a decoction: a glass of water + three tablespoons of dried flowers. To enhance the result, blue clay is added to the solution. For one spoon of liquid, two spoons of mineral. Leave until dry.

Application of peelings

A more budget-friendly alternative to laser whitening is peeling. They won't turn a dark girl into a porcelain doll. Their property is to reduce hyperpigmentation and even out tone.

During the peeling process, acids act on the stratum corneum, removing dead cells. With deep peeling, the effect reaches the dermis, actually injuring the skin. After the procedure, update processes are launched. The new layer is clean and looks younger.

There are two types of peelings:

Mechanical peeling erases the upper stratum corneum under the influence of hard particles. The skin becomes more sensitive to care; it is advisable to use whitening creams and serums.

Chemical peeling can be acidic, retinoic, using plant extracts and other means.

Chemical peeling includes:

1. Acid peeling is not a pleasant mask, but a serious procedure that causes discomfort during and after the procedure.
2. The most gentle is peeling with lactic acid. It can be done for people with dry and sensitive skin, as well as during periods of solar activity.
3. Glycolic peeling, on the contrary, is the most effective and deep, and does not cause long-term irritation.
4. Peeling with salicylic acid is chosen for skin prone to inflammation. Salicylic acid accumulates in the pores and retains its healing effect for a long time.

Professional products

If the natural options do not suit you, then doctors can effectively whiten problem skin using iontophoresis. This is a little expensive (in Cheboksary up to 500 rubles per session, and in Moscow - up to 700), but there is a guarantee for a long-lasting effect. Validity period is about a month. Ask cosmetologists in your city how much this procedure costs in their salon. When rinsing off, avoid intense friction; it is better to wet the clay with a washcloth, and then carefully remove the remaining mask.

Often pigment spots are removed using laser peeling, but here a lot depends on the reason for their appearance. Similarly, you can use chemical peeling with fruit acids.

Professional cosmetics will also help you whiten your face. Brands Mary Kay, CS2, Negru produce entire lines for lightening the epidermis. But, of course, the required action can be carried out in the shortest possible time only if an integrated approach is used.

Contraindications

Whitening compositions often use various acids and other aggressive components. Their exposure can cause harm in a number of cases:

1. Extensive inflammatory phenomena - multiple acne, pimples and irritations.
2. Thin skin with increased sensitivity, dry or chapped.
3. Skin diseases: papillomas, rosacea, dermatitis, melanoma, vitiligo, keratosis and so on.
4. Wounds, stitches, injuries, facial injuries.
5. Recent procedures done at home or in a salon.
6. Ideal whitening will not only lighten your skin, but will also give a lasting result without side effects.
