Hyperpigmentation is a common skin condition in which certain patches of your skin become darker than the rest. While it’s a harmless condition, it does shake your self-confidence a little, making you look for ways to get rid of it.
Incorporating Vitamin C in your skincare regimen is one of the best steps you can take towards fighting it.
Understanding Hyperpigmentation and Its Causes

Common causes of hyperpigmentation are frequent exposure to the sun for longer periods of time and inflammation of the skin in conditions like acne. The darker spots appear because of excess melanin production in the skin and can normally affect any skin type and tone.
The Power of Vitamin C for Hyperpigmentation
The best treatment available for hyperpigmentation is in the form of Vitamin C. The importance of vitamins for skin health cannot be debated. Vitamin C is especially important for protection against photo damage, hyperpigmentation and melasma (freckle like spots on the skin).
Vitamin C is a powerful anti-oxidant with L-ascorbic acid which plays a role in blocking the action of the enzyme Tyrosine, essential for the production of melanin. With consistent and prolonged use, Vitamin C will help restore the darkened area of your skin to a normal skin tone.

It does not fade away your normal skin color to make you look dull but only acts on photo-damaged skin with excess melanin.
However, the L-ascorbic acid in Vitamin C is a highly unstable ingredient that oxidizes rapidly upon exposure to sun and moisture. As a result, it is unable to penetrate deep into the skin to work its wonder. Beauty experts for Yorkville HydraFacial in Toronto recommend its use in powdered form. In powdered form, vitamin c is able to maintain its composition for a longer time to yield benefits.
Free radicals in the skin produced by sun exposure and pollution are also responsible for breaking down collagen, resulting in wrinkles, dark spots, fine lines and saggy skin. Similarly, as you age, the melanocytes (melanin-producing cells) can concentrate In particular areas, giving an appearance of dark spots. Vitamin C counters this effect by hindering the excess production of melanin, preventing the deterioration of collagen and neutralizing free radicals.
