3 Pathways In The Creation of Age Spots and Our Goals and Recommendations for Treatment
A big problem clients are reporting to us during many of their beauty services is the age spots on their faces and not knowing how to deal with them. We are hoping to develop more of a guide of information for each beauty/skin problem clients are encountering.
Age spots are often the result of exposure to UV rays and/or changes in hormones as women go through many stages in life. Age spots are also know as brown spots or the darkening of skin in spots. This is due to melanin production in skin.
βMelanocytes are melanin-producing cells found in skin, hair follicles, eyes, inner ear, bones, heart and brain of humans. They arise from pluripotent neural crest cells and differentiate in response to a complex network of interacting regulatory pathways. Melanins are pigment molecules that are endogenously synthesized by melanocytes. The light absorption of melanin in skin and hair leads to photoreceptor shielding, thermoregulation, photoprotection, camouflage and display coloring. Melanins are also powerful cation chelators and may act as free radical sinks. Melanin formation is a product of complex biochemical events that starts from amino acid tyrosine and its metabolite, dopa.β
