what causes uneven skin tone? - 0 views

  • An uneven skin tone, or hyperpigmentation, is the result of an over production of melanin.
  • 1) Sun exposure: When skin is repeatedly exposed to UV light, sun damage occurs. Brown spots appear as a result of too much melanin being produced to help protect skin from UV light. 2) Hormones: Melasma is hormone-related hyperpigmentation caused by increased hormone stimulation. It is most commonly experienced by women who are pregnant (which is why it’s also known as the “mask of pregnancy”) or taking contraceptives, but can also be a reaction to cosmetics or medications. 3) Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation: This is a darkening of skin that’s the result of scarring, which can be caused by acne lesions or skin injury.

      I predict that the article will be about how being overweight gives you excess skin
  • Where my stomach, legs and arms had previously been distended with fat, there was now some excess skin. Over a period of time, some of this firmed up with concentrated cardio and weight training, but only to a certain point. After 12 years and 4 more babies, it is as good as it’s going to get.
  • Does it bother me? A bit. Would I not have lost the weight had I known about the excess skin? No. It doesn't bother me that much, and the benefits of not weighing 300 pounds certainly outweigh any cosmetic issues. The issues I have are minor compared with the issues

  • There are people who have had gastric bypass surgery and lost tons of weight so quickly that their skin doesn't rebound at all. In those cases, plastic surgery may be a necessity, not just an option.
  • The skin is not attractive externally, but in some ways it reminds me of where I was and where I never want to go again. Don't be frightened by the prospect of excess skin if you have a large amount of weight to lose. If the skin bothers you, cosmetic surgery is an option that although pricey, offers very nice results.

      When it comes to cellulite it all comes from excess fat showing through your skin. all of the treatments for cellulite either break down excess fat or fluids. This will decrease the look of the lumpy cellulite.
