Understanding the Formation of Hyperpigmentations
Melanin, the darkening pigment responsible for determining the colour of our skin, plays a crucial role in protecting our skin cells from harmful UV radiation by absorbing UVA and UVB rays. Melanin is produced by specialized skin cells called Melanocytes, located in the basal layer of our epidermis, through a complex process known as Melanogenesis. This process is triggered by the Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone (MSH), while the Tyrosinase enzyme present in our skin initiates the oxidation necessary for melanin synthesis.
Once formed, melanin is transported from the Melanocytes to the outermost layer of the skin, called Keratinocytes, via organelles called Melanosomes. Increased melanocyte activity or stimulation leads to an excess production of melanin.
Melanogenesis results in two types of melanin in the human epidermis: eumelanin, which is black/brownish, and pheomelanin, which is reddish/yellow. The presence of an excess of eumelanin, even when combined with pheomelanin, can lead to the development of hyperpigmentations in specific areas, with the proportions of eumelanin and pheomelanin determining the color of the blemish. Individuals with darker skin photo-types tend to be more susceptible to hyperpigmentations due to their increased melanin production compared to those with fair photo-types.
Exploring Different Types of Hyperpigmentations and Effective Treatments
Freckles or Ephelides
One of the most common types of hyperpigmentation is freckles, discrete brown spots that appear on the upper cheeks after sun exposure. Freckles are often genetically predisposed and commonly affect fair-skinned individuals. While they typically do not require treatment as they attenuate when not exposed to the sun, it is highly recommended to use a good sunscreen for prevention. To help reduce the appearance of freckles, our recommended solution is the Dark Spot Eraser, containing depigmenting elements that can effectively fade these spots.
Solar Lentigines, Sun Spots, or Age Spots
Solar lentigines are pigmented macules induced by UV exposure, varying in color from light brown to black with a well-defined edge. The severity of these spots depends on the extent of solar radiation exposure. Meline Spots offers a complete solution for the removal of solar lentigines. It involves a 2-phase treatment, starting with a professional application followed by a maintenance regimen at home, crucial for controlling melanin production and preventing recurrence.
Always ensure this treatment is prescribed, performed, and supervised by your specialist or dermatologist.
Melasma / Chloasma
Melasma is the most common hyperpigmentation disorder and it affects millions of people around the globe, characterised by light to medium brown-colored patches with blurry edges, commonly occurs on the face. Hormonal changes, such as those experienced during pregnancy or through the use of oral contraceptives, are common triggers for melasma, which worsens with sun exposure. Studies conducted in different populations revealed that even a small affection of melasma in the facial area can lead to significant emotional and psychological affliction, that is why treating it appropriately is so important.
Our recommended treatment for melasma is Meline treatment Day 02 tailored to different skin phototypes. We offer specific products for Caucasian Skin and Ethnic Skin that effectively inhibit tyrosinase oxidation, preventing melanin synthesis and reducing epidermal melanin deposits. This comprehensive treatment combines a professional product for in-clinic application with two additional serums for at-home use, which are essential for the success of the treatment.
Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is a type of hyperpigmentation that appears after injury or burns, and individuals with inflammatory acne are particularly susceptible. These hyperpigmentations present as pink, reddish, or brown discolouration. The formation of PIH is a result of the skin's natural healing process, where inflammation in the epidermis stimulates melanocytes, leading to increased melanin production.
While PIH may fade naturally over time, it is recommended to treat and expedite its resolution.
Ethnic Day 02
Indications
Enhances and prolongs the delay of pigmentations in skin phototypes IV-VI. Suppresses the expression of the tyrosinase enzyme, thereby inhibiting the production of melanin.
Active Ingredients
Mandelic Acid · Ascorbic Acid · Arbutin · Melanostatine · Niacinamide · Magnesium Sulphate · Retinal
Mandelic Acid: This powerhouse ingredient gently exfoliates and brightens the skin, revealing a luminous and even-toned complexion.
Ascorbic Acid: Known as the gold standard in skincare, this form of Vitamin C works wonders by providing antioxidant protection while promoting collagen synthesis for a youthful glow.
Arbutin: Nature's gift to combat hyperpigmentation, arbutin effectively lightens and evens out the skin tone, ensuring a radiant and harmonious complexion.
Melanostatine: Unleash the potential of this remarkable ingredient, as it inhibits the production of melanin, minimising the appearance of unwanted pigmentation.
Niacinamide: Known for its multitasking abilities, niacinamide helps to strengthen the skin barrier, reduce inflammation, and regulate sebum production, creating a balanced and healthy complexion.
Magnesium Sulphate: This essential mineral increases cellular exchange, promoting a vibrant and revitalized skin appearance.
Retinal: A derivative of Vitamin A, retinal aids in skin rejuvenation by stimulating cell turnover and promoting a more youthful complexion.
Caucasian Day 02
Active Ingredients:
Mandelic Acid: Harnessing the power of exfoliation, Mandelic Acid increases the epidermolytic action across different skin layers, promoting a smoother, more refined complexion.
Phytic Acid: This ingredient exhibits remarkable chelating properties, effectively binding to copper and iron at the active site of the enzyme. By doing so, it helps regulate the enzymatic processes that contribute to skin pigmentation.
Kojic Acid: Unlock the potential of Kojic Acid as it blocks the synthesis of DOPA to DOPAquinone, a crucial step in melanin production. By preventing the transformation of dopachrome to eumelanin, it aids in minimizing the appearance of dark spots and uneven skin tone.
Glutathione: This multitasking ingredient not only inhibits the transport of Tyrosine to premelanosomes, the sites of melanin synthesis, but it also acts as a potent free radical scavenger. Glutathione helps protect the skin from oxidative stress, promoting a brighter and more youthful complexion.
Tranexamic Acid: With its remarkable properties, Tranexamic Acid inhibits plasminogen, a component involved in the skin's inflammatory response, and inactivates Tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin production. This dual action helps in reducing pigmentation and promoting a more even skin tone.
Lactobionic Acid: Unlock the enhanced penetration capabilities of the active ingredients with Lactobionic Acid. It helps optimise the delivery of other key ingredients, allowing them to reach deeper skin layers and exert their full potential.
Copper Tripeptide-1: Neutralize free radicals with the power of Copper Tripeptide-1. This ingredient acts as an antioxidant, helping to combat oxidative stress and maintain a healthy complexion. Its protective properties contribute to a youthful and radiant skin appearance.
Mode of Action
By targeting the very foundations of melanin synthesis, the active ingredients in Ethnic & Caucasian Day 02 work harmoniously to decrease the mRNA synthesis required for tyrosinase production. This reduction in melanin synthesis leads to a visible decrease in pigmentation, while also impeding the release of melanosomes and promoting a more uniform and balanced complexion.
Treatment Protocol
To unlock the full potential of Ethnic & Caucasian Day 02, it is recommended to incorporate this product into your skincare routine for a minimum of 90 days. However, the exact duration of treatment will be determined by your trusted skincare professional, ensuring tailored care and optimal results.
Application Protocol
Following the cleansing of facial skin, we recommend using Meline gentle foam before application, apply the product exclusively to the pigmented areas using the tube sponge device. Allow it to dry and absorb. Subsequently, the Meline 03 Moist occlusive repair product and Meline 04 B.B. Cream can be applied as a sunscreen and colour corrector.
