00:00Hyperpigmentation, you know the fairly common skin condition caused by an excessive build-up of melanin in one location, often
00:07leading to freckles, melasma, or uneven skin tone?
00:11HealthShots confirms, this sometimes frustrating skin condition can increase in the winter months, due to our skin shedding dead skin
00:19cells at a faster rate than usual.
00:22The good news is, it can be minimized with proper medical care, a good skin care routine, and recommended skin
00:28procedures.
00:29In winter, your skin may appear darker due to dryness, excessive sun exposure without summertime protection, and intake of warmer
00:37foods.
00:37To reduce hyperpigmentation, practice good skin care and an intake of a proper diet.
00:44The simple way? Everyday Health says, keep skin moist to boost cell turnover.
00:49A variety of peels exist that have hydrating and depigmenting effects to take away the excess melanin from the skin.
00:57Laser toning once a month can also help to maintain the natural color of your skin tone.
