Dark spots on the face? It’s a granny problem… Is it? No, it regards everybody even when very young. Because it’s related to sun exposition and not to only to aging. Can hyperpigmentation be definetely defeated with specific treatments? No, but it can be much limited, according to Erika Abitelli, chemist, trainer by the Italian Istituto Ganassini (brands Rilastil and Korff).

Q. Has hyperpigmentation to do with menopause?
A. Not strictly with menopause,
but with sun exposition. Going out without a good protection is very
risky. Some medicines that we are
compelled to take for a long time can cause photosensitive
reactions as well. And also…
Q. Are there some more causes?
A. Sure, scars, severe excoriations
and pregnancy.
Q. Any good solution?
A. Dark spots can be
treated with highly concentrated products
against hyperpigmentation. To prevent new spots you should use such products on
the global area, non only locally. And then put your daily moisturizer on the
face. If your skin is very sensible, it
would be better to use a very high sun protection cream all the year long. And
dont’ forget to pick it up when you go to the mountains!
