Indian Women Know: Get Rid Of The Freckles And Spots On Your Skin With The Help Of An Old Indian Recipe

Hyperpigmentation is a disorder of the color of the skin characterized with dark areas on the skin and caused by the increase of quantities of melanin, the dark pigment of the skin.

Exposure to sunlight, pregnancy, certain conditions and diseases, old age or some kind of trauma can lead to disturbance in the melanin and create non-aesthetical dark spots which are the main characteristics of this benign disorder.

The causes can be divided into two categories: outer and inner. Outer causes can be the ones coming from the environment like exposure to sunlight or some chemical compounds: betaxolol, minocycline, estrogen, progesterone etc.) Inner causes are usually hereditary, so people with darker skin have a higher susceptibility towards the development of this disorder.

Freckles, age spots and sun spots are all caused by the harmful ultraviolet sunrays that damage the melanin and result in a temporary or permanent discoloration. These spots can often be noticed on the face and hands, but they can also appear on any part of the body that has been exposed to sunlight.

Traumas caused by scars or surgeries can also cause a change in the skin color and even when the problem disappears, the dark spots remain.

Melasma is a type of skin hyperpigmentation that appears during the period of pregnancy, although it can sometimes appear in men, too. It’s usually referred to as the mask of a pregnant woman, because the brown spots cover the pregnant woman’s face – mostly the nose and cheeks. This disorder usually disappears itself after the pregnancy and doesn’t cause any bigger problems.

A natural remedy against hyperpigmentation – Recipe:

• 1 teaspoon of curcuma powder (turmeric)
• 1 teaspoon of lemon juice

Preparation:

Mix the two ingredients well. Apply the mixture on the areas with the spots and leave it to dry for about 15 minutes. Rinse with cold water afterwards.

Don’t expose your skin to direct sunlight after that!

It is recommended that you apply this mixture after having a shower.

You can repeat it once or twice every day until you get visible results.

This simple remedy really works and is based on the Ayurvedic principles. As we know, Ayurveda is an ancient healing science from India.

Lemon whitens and stimulates the peeling of your skin. Curcuma is also excellent for skin lightening (Indian people know it well) and it also has anti-inflammatory properties and makes your skin glowing.

People with extremely sensitive skin can put some water into the lemon juice or change it with milk.
