Pigmentation is a marker of age.
Freckles are one thing, but spots on your temples and arms are signs of aging that are visible to everyone. There can be many reasons for the appearance of pigmentation: hormonal imbalance, genetic predisposition, age-related changes, chronic diseases, etc. And, of course, ultraviolet radiation.
It acts as an abuser - it forces skin cells to actively defend themselves and produce pigment. Most often it affects the nose, cheekbones, forehead, hands, and décolleté.
If the trigger for pigmentation in your case is the sun, remember the most important thing. The first thing is that you definitely won’t be able to lighten your skin while the sun is very active. Second, you need SPF 50 for your face all year round, especially when undergoing whitening therapy.
In general, using Sunscreen for the face all year round does not interfere with all of us - the sun emits ultraviolet light constantly, only its activity changes.
In case of hyperpigmentation in the active sun, a product with SPF will not protect 100%, but there will be fewer spots than if there was no protection at all.
