Theoretically, the problem of the appearance of age spots on the skin can excite a woman at any age. However, if this symptom appears in young girls, then there must certainly be a definite reason for this. As a rule, this is a sign of the beginning of hormonal changes in the body. This may be due to the continued use of certain contraceptives, poor-quality cosmetic preparations or medication. Another common cause is pregnancy. Brown spots on the face are directly related to age-related changes. In women older than 45 years, a small scattering of spots is often observed on the skin.
So why is this happening? Mainly because with age, body cells slowly lose their ability to stop pigment production. And during menopause, there is a
hormonal imbalance in women, which only worsens the situation. So, what causes age
spots on the skin of the face and body? Here are just some of the causes known to medicine:
- diseases of the female reproductive system;
- liver disease;
- the use of hormonal contraceptives;
- inflammatory processes in the urinary system;
- dysfunctions of the thyroid gland;
- neurological diseases, decreased activity of the immune system;
- deficiency of vitamin C;
- the use of cosmetics of dubious quality;
- a consequence of injuries, for example, when squeezing a rash or neoplasm on the skin.
A significant role in the formation of age spots on the face is played by sunlight. That is why these spots, like freckles, become more noticeable with the advent of spring. Therefore, to prevent their occurrence in spring and summer, it is necessary to avoid prolonged exposure to the sun and carefully protect the skin of hands and face.
It happens that abundant southern tan is to blame for the formation of age spots. And even the fact that a person used a special tool does not save. It largely depends on the individual characteristics of the skin. But do not exclude the reaction to the use of milk or sunblock. In these cases, it is best to get rid of age spots using high-quality cosmetics with a whitening effect. It’s better not to sunbathe anymore.
In general, if a woman has skin problems, she does not tolerate various kinds of cosmetics or is prone to quickly
sunbathe, she needs to
take care of herself, not to stay outdoors for a long time and protect her skin with light and breathable clothes.
As mentioned above, cosmetics can cause pigmentation, but as practice shows, cosmetic procedures aimed at facial care are not so harmless either. Every woman must know that improper cleansing of her skin (especially if the season is not taken into account), the frequent use of peeling creams and scrubs, applying various colognes and perfumes to open areas of the body can play a very insidious and evil joke. Over time, this increases the sensitivity of the skin, it becomes prone to allergies and exposed to the harmful effects of sunlight.
