Skin Whitening Creme
One of the main functions of a skin whitening creme is to assist in skin peeling. When some of the dead skin cells are not shed off, the oxidation process will cause the dead skin cells to be darker. So, some areas of your skin will look darker than the surrounding skin, making the skin blotchy.
What makes an effective skin whitening creme? Skin lightening involves 3 basic processes. The first process is exfoliation. It removes old dead skin cells that contribute to hyperpigmentation. It reveals the new layer of the skin, making the skin whiter. Usually exfoliating can be done with microdermabrasion, chemical peels, or lasers.
The second process ensures the new layer of skin will have not have any dark pigment. Usually hydroquinone is used because it can stop the production of melanin, the pigment of the skin. This will cause the color of the new skin to be lighter.
The final process of skin bleaching is to protect the new skin from the damaging effect of the sun. Usually the new skin cells are even in their pigmentation. They become darker because of the effect of the oxidation. Thus, skin whitening lotions that contain antioxidants can be beneficial for your skin.
Many skin whitening creams contain hydroquinone. However, the use of hydroquinone may lead to many deadly side effects. Today, the European Committee ban the use of hydroquinone in skin care products and restricts its availability to prescriptions.
Skin whitener manufacturers have to find new substitutes that resemble the skin lightening properties of hydroquinone. Fortunately, safe ingredients such as bearberry extracts, licorice, kojic acid, and Alpha-Arbutin have become popular among skin whitening creams. The synergetic combination of these substances produces better results than hydroquinone without any side effects.
Many skin whitening lotions can be found on the market today, but none are more effective than Meladerm. It is among the safest and most effective ways to whiten your skin.
