Description

WHAT IS DARK PIGMENTATION:

The skin has three layers known as epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissues which are elaborated as follows:

The epidermis:  is the outermost layer of the skin and consists of five layers. (stratum corneum, stratum lucidum, stratum granulosum, stratum spinosum, and stratum basale or germinativum.  The stratum basale or basal layer is the deepest layer of the epidermis and is connected to the dermis. It has live cells and it is progressively replacing and regenerating the new cells. The basal layer is also made of tall living cells name melanocytes which produce melanin. Melanin is the skin pigment that gives color to the skin and also protects the basal layer from UVR damages.

Dermis:  is called the true skin and is located in the center between the epidermis and subcutaneous tissues. The dermis has two layers 1- the papillary layer which is a thin top layer, and the reticular layer which is the thick dermis layer that is made of connective tissues, nerves, sweat glands, capillaries, hair follicles, and sebum oil.

Subcutaneous: This is a thick cushiony tissue that is located in the deepest layer of the skin. It is mainly made of fat cells and connective tissues that control the body’s temperatures.

WHAT CAUSE DARK PIGMENTATION:

When the skin is exposed to UVR causes the melanocytes on the basal layer of the epidermis to get stimulated and produce more melanin or pigments.

Individuals with medium-tone skin are the ones who are at most risk to get dark pigmentation. When they are over-exposed to UV-B,  the free radicals from sunlight will attack the melanocytes cells on the basal layer and stimulate the melanocytes to produce more pigments, thus the individuals with medium-toned skin get dark pigmentation fairly soon after being exposed to the sun. Individuals with black skin are at no risk for pigmentation because their skin is already pigmented. 

Imbalanced sex hormones among the medium tone skin women, such as during pregnancy or during taking birth control pills, when the production of estrogen increases and the level of progesterone may get high, those sex hormones stimulate the overproduction of melanin and cause dark pigmentation. Prolong use of medications, and a diet rich in hot energy foods such as spices may toxify and stimulate the liver and causing skin discoloration. it is necessary to detoxify the liver and balance its energy twice a month with herbal teas such as dandelion leaves, milk thistle, and burdock root, fresh fruit juices such as pomegranate and barberry have the power to balance the liver energy. Drinking enough water every day is a must.
