🌿 Understanding Pigmentation: The Ayurvedic Perspective
By Ashma Khanna | Anammyaa Wellness
Pigmentation—those stubborn dark patches, uneven skin tone, or melasma—can affect self-esteem and confidence. While many turn to chemical treatments for relief, Ayurveda offers a gentle, holistic approach that addresses the root causes from within.
Let’s explore how pigmentation develops, the connection with hormones and liver function, and how Ayurveda provides lasting solutions through herbs, diet, and natural skincare.
🔍 What Causes Pigmentation?
In modern terms, pigmentation is usually the result of melanin overproduction, which may be triggered by:
Sun exposure
Hormonal changes (e.g., pregnancy, PCOD, birth control pills)
Post-inflammatory responses (acne, injury)
Liver dysfunction
Stress and poor digestion
🌸 Hormonal Imbalance & Pigmentation
Hormones like estrogen and progesterone can stimulate excess melanin, especially during:
Pregnancy (chloasma)
PCOD
Thyroid dysfunction
Use of oral contraceptives
In Ayurveda, this is seen as an imbalance of Pitta dosha, which governs metabolism, hormones, and heat. When aggravated, Pitta spreads toxins (āma) in the blood, affecting skin clarity.
🍃 The Liver-Skin Connection
Your liver is your body’s detox powerhouse. When it’s overloaded—due to alcohol, processed food, stress, or pollutants—it struggles to filter toxins. These toxins then manifest on the skin as:
Pigmentation
Acne
Dullness
Rashes
In Ayurveda, poor liver function increases Ranjaka Pitta and causes rakta dushti (impurities in blood), leading to pigmentation and blemishes.
🌿 How Ayurveda Treats Pigmentation Holistically
Ayurveda doesn’t just treat the symptom—it heals from the root. For pigmentation, this means:
Pacifying aggravated Pitta
Detoxifying the liver
Purifying the blood
Nourishing the skin tissues (rasa & rakta dhatu)
