Hyperpigmentation on the Knees? Here’s What You Need to Know.

Hyperpigmentation on the Knees? Here’s What You Need to Know.

Darkened knees are often a sign of a higher concentration of melanin, the pigment that gives colour to our hair, eyes and skin.‌ They can also occur as a result of friction from clothing, leading to a condition called post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. In many people, they are often associated with some thickening of the skin. That is why, when treating dark knees, it is important to focus on reducing friction, rubbing or injury to the affected area.

Common Causes of Dark Knees:

If your skin tone is naturally medium to dark, you may have a higher chance of developing dark knees at some point in your life. This is because your skin is more likely to produce higher melanin. However, apart from your skin tone, there are many other factors that contribute to hyperpigmentation on the knees, such as:

• Increased friction
• Skin dryness‌
• Unprotected sun exposure
• Build-up of dead skin cells
• Inflammatory skin conditions

Excess melanin is harmless. But some women may want to lighten the skin on their knees to have an even-looking skin tone throughout the body. Although there are several skin-lightening products accessible at stores to achieve this, they can be very harsh on the skin. Strong chemicals can result in skin irritation or higher sensitivity to UVA and UVB rays. And if not applied as directed, such products can also lead to skin damage and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, making the problem a lot worse. Because of this, many women are more inclined towards safer and natural methods that are done under the guidance of a skin expert to help them achieve their skin goals.

LPG Treatment in Dubai:

LPG treatment is an excellent alternative to invasive surgeries and harmful chemicals for clearing darkened knees and enhancing their appearance. The technology is specifically designed to give the skin an exceptional workout, stimulating the tissues at a cellular level and naturally restoring skin firmness by smoothing away lines and dark spots. LPG treatment in Dubai is widely popular for its safe and painless nature while treating various skin and aesthetic concerns.

The treatment uses micro-pulsations on the entire surface of the face and neck to give the skin a gentle but deep workout. The stimulation helps to exfoliate the skin and oxygenate the tissues while boosting microcirculation. Moreover, the elasticity of the skin is improved drastically, leading to smoother and tighter skin. The pressure and suction techniques help to process the fatty and connective tissues. Apart from dark knees, LPG treatment in Dubai is also available for other body concerns, such as reducing excess fat, combating cellulite and contouring the body.
