Pigmentation Removal Cream With Home Available Substances

You may be able to treat hyper pigmentation
with home remedies and by protecting your skin from the sun. Some medical
conditions can cause hyper pigmentation.

Pigmentation refers to the coloring of the
skin. Skin pigmentation disorders cause changes to the color of your skin.
Melanin is made by cells in the skin and is the pigment responsible for your
skin’s color.

Hyper pigmentation is a condition that causes your skin to
darken. This can affect patches of your skin or your entire body. Age Spots,
also called liver spots, are a common type of hyper pigmentation.

Hyper pigmentation is usually harmless but can sometimes be
caused by an underlying medical condition. Certain medications can also cause
your skin to darken. It’s more of a cosmetic issue for most people.

Pigmentation treatment
at home

There are several ways that you can treat hyper pigmentation at
home. While several of the remedies we share here are anecdotal, some research
suggests their main ingredients work on skin pigmentation.

Apple cider vinegar

Apple cider vinegar contains acetic acid,
which research trusted source shows may lighten pigmentation.

To use this remedy:

1.   Combine equal parts
apple cider vinegar and water in a container.

2.   Apply to your dark
patches and leave on two to three minutes.

3.   Rinse using lukewarm
water.

4.   Repeat twice daily you
achieve the results you desire.

Aloe vera

Aloe Vera contains aloin, a natural de pigmenting compound
that has been shown to lighten skin and work effectively as a nontoxic hyper pigmentation
treatment.

To use:

1.   Apply pure aloe vera
gel to pigmented areas before bedtime.

2.   Rinse using warm water
the next morning.

3.   Repeat daily until
your skin color improves.

Red onion

Red onion (Allium cepa)
extract is an ingredient in some commercially available skin- and
scar-lightening creams. Research has found that the dried skin of red
onions can effectively lighten skin. Look for creams for hyper pigmentation
that contain Allium cepa and
use as directed.

Green tea extract

Research trusted source shows that green tea extract may
have a de pigmenting effect when applied to skin. You can purchase green tea
extract and apply it as directed. Some websites suggest applying green tea bags
to dark spots for a lightening effect, though there is no evidence to back this
claim.

If you’d like to give it a try, follow these steps:

1.   Steep a green tea bag
in boiled water for three to five minutes.

2.   Remove the tea bag
from the water and let cool — you don’t want to burn your skin.

3.   Rub the tea bag over
your dark patches.

4.   Repeat twice a day
until you get results.

Black tea water

An animal study trusted source published in 2011 found
that black tea water lightened dark spots on guinea pigs. The black tea
water was applied twice a day, six days a week for four weeks.

To try your own version of this hyper pigmentation treatment at
home:

1.   Add a tablespoon of
fresh black tea leaves to a cup of boiling distilled water.

2.   Steep for two hours
and strain to remove the leaves.

3.   Soak a cotton ball in
the tea water and apply to areas of hyper pigmentation, twice a day.

4.   Repeat every day for
six days a week, over four weeks.

Licorice extract

Licorice extract contains active ingredients that have been
shown to lighten hyper pigmentation caused by melasma and sun exposure. Topical
creams containing licorice extract are available over the counter. Use as
directed on the packaging.

Milk

Milk, buttermilk, and even sour milk have all been shown to
effectively lighten skin discoloration. Lactic Acid is the ingredient
responsible for this effect.

To use any of these to treat pigmentation:

• Soak a cotton ball in the milk.
• Rub it over darkened skin patches twice a day.
• Repeat daily until you see results.

Tomato paste

A study published in The British Journal of Dermatology in
2011 found that tomato paste rich in lycopene protected the skin against
short-term and long-term aspects of photo damage. Study participants consumed
55 grams of tomato paste in olive oil daily for 12 weeks.

Orchid extracts

Orchid extracts are just as effective as Vitamin C hyper
pigmentation remedies, according to research trusted sources. Applying
orchid-rich extracts to the skin for eight weeks improved the size and
appearance of dark patches.

You can buy skin products containing orchid extract, including masks,
creams, and scrubs. Use as directed for the best results.

Masoor dal (red lentils)

Masoor dal face masks, which are made from red lentils, are
popular as a hyper pigmentation treatment. Though there isn’t any evidence to
back these claims, red lentils are rich in antioxidants that are known to be
good for the skin.

To make your own masoor dal mask:

• Soak 50 grams of red lentils overnight in a bowl of
  water.
• Use a blender or food processor to create a fine paste.
• Apply the paste evenly over your face and leave it on
  for 20 minutes.
• Rinse with cold water and pat your skin dry with a
  towel.

Conclusion

Hyper pigmentation is usually a cosmetic concern rather than a
medical one. There are several home remedies for pigmentation that can help you
lighten dark patches.

Speak
to your doctor if you’re concerned about your skin pigmentation or suspect that
your skin discoloration is caused by an underlying medical condition or
medication.
