Lighten Asian Skin with Asian Skin Lightening Cream

    
   

Lightenex skin lightening cream can be used to lighten Asian skin and to correct uneven skin pigmentation marks including sun spots, chloasma, melasma, liver spots and freckles. Asian skin is easily darkened by the sun, and to prevent this a daily sun block with SPF 25 or more should be used all year round. Lightenex contains Kojic dipalmitate which is derived from Japanese mushrooms. Unlike many Asian skin whitening products which contain hydroquinone, Lightenex contains naturally derived ingredients.

    
         
   

 

 

  

 

 

For full benefits, skin lightening products should be used morning and evening.

The products will take about 8 weeks to begin to work, as this amount of time is required to inhibit the production of melanin which causes darker skin colour and age spots.

  

The time it taken to clear pigmentation varies from one person to another. Whilst some can see a difference in 6-8 weeks, it can take up to 6 months to clear pigmentation, depending on your age and skin type, and extent of the pigmentation problem. Lightenex skin lightening cream should be used as an ongoing treatment to prevent further pigmentation.

Latest Developments in Skin Lightening Drugs
By Naweko N San-joyz
     
Dark spots on the skin can provoke a desire for cosmetics improvements. But not everyone is eager to expose their skin to lasers or chemicals peels for the sake of an even skin tone. For those consumers, reports the Harvard Women's Health Watch, gentler topical skin bleaching drugs do exist.

Most topical prescriptions for removing ages spots operate by interrupting formation of melanin, the pigment that gives skin its color and create sun tans. Yet, to extract the maximum benefit from any lightening agent, it should be used in conjunction with a sunscreen holding an SPF of 30 or more.

Hydroquinone

The pigment reducing ingredient hydroquinone still makes the Harvard Women's Health Watch list of topical skin lighteners amid a recent Food and Drug Administration ban on the drug. The FDA suspects that hydroquinone may not be safe for human use because in studies, mice fed hydroquinone developed cancer.		   The controversy over hydroquinone usage hinges on the validity of whether on not the mice studies exemplify real-world applications of this ingredient in actual human drug applications. Regardless of this ongoing debate, many dermatologists still view hydroquinone as the ideal medicine for treating age spots.

At present, 1-2% hydroquinone-based lightening creams are still available as over-the-counter medications.

Tretinoin

Besides hydroquinone, tretinoin offers a less heated option for minimizing a variety of skin blemishes like acne, wrinkles and age spots. The one drawback of tretinoin is that visible signs of pigment lightening may take months to see.

Tretinoin is available with a prescription under the brand names Retin-A, Renova and Avita.
     
Adapalene gel

Like tretinoin, doctors prescribe adapalene gel to treat acne. But off-label uses of adapalene gel include improving photo-aged skin. Brand name versions of adapalene gel include Differin.

Precautions

While providing cosmetic benefits, skin lightening drugs also bear common side effects like skin irritations, swelling and redness. In some users, these conditions subside within days. Also, if you have other skin ailments or sensitivities, like eczema or sun-sensitivity, inform your doctor prior to using any skin lightening medications to avoid skin damage and possible hyper-pigmentation (darkened skin).

Asia’s obsession with white skin leaves a black mark The skin-whitening craze, which runs parallel to the global trend of cosmetic surgery and botox injections, is not just for the face. It includes creams that whiten darker patches of skin in armpits and "pink nipple" lotions that bleach away brown-colored pigment.
