Over a period of time, with age, our skin develops dark spots and pigmentation. This is a natural process of aging. That is exactly why our beauty care treatments should also include skin pigmentation treatments that help you age gracefully and prevent dark circles. Here are a few treatments that you can do yourself at home and some professional treatments that can be done at a reputed skin clinic.

Natural home remedies require patience and the effects are seen only after consistent and persistent efforts:

Papaya

Grate a papaya and extract the juice. Apply this juice to the pigmented area. You can even apply it to the entire face to get that shine and glow. Regularly apply this for about a month. You will begin to see amazing results. This is because the enzyme in papaya has properties that help remove dead cells. Every time you apply papaya juice, it removes dead cells and new cell generation gradually removes the pigmented parts.

Almond and milk

It is known that dryness is one of the causes of pigmentation. Removing the dryness is hence essential. Almond contains natural fatty acids. The nutrients present in almonds help nourish it. Milk is also known to be a lightening agent. For this treatment, soak almonds in milk overnight. Crush them into a paste. Apply this paste on the pigmented areas.

Guava and banana

The lycopene content of guava makes it a great treatment for darkening. Banana is also known for its lightening properties. Make a pulp by crushing guava and banana and apply on pigmented areas.

Avocados

Avocados are known to be rich in fatty acids, vitamin C and oleic acid. This makes them very good agents for rejuvenation and healing.
