What colour LED light is good for pigmentation?

What colour LED light is good for pigmentation?

Scientific studies indicate that: Yellow light (around 585 nm), red light (630-660 nm), and near-infrared light (830-940 nm) can reduce hyperpigmentation by inhibiting melanin synthesis, potentially fading dark spots. The evidence leans toward these colours being effective, as they target the processes that produce excess melanin. Yellow light is not that well researched, in contrast to red and infrared which have been extensively researched for decades. Orange light, while not as well-studied, may share effects with red and yellow due to its wavelength proximity…

Does RF cause pigmentation?

Does RF cause pigmentation?

Pigmentation occurs either as a result of UV exposure (sun, sunbed) or as a result of inflammation (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation). Treatments such as laser, radiofrequency, infrared, ultrasound, plasma skin resurfacing, radiofrequency microneedling, HIFU etc can only cause hyperpigmentation as a result of inflammation. When a treatment, such as the above, is delivered at extreme intensity, either by mistake or by design, the epidermis is burned, damaged or irritated, leading to inflammation, which quite often results in post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation…

Pterostilbene, resveratrol and hyperpigmentation

Pterostilbene, resveratrol and hyperpigmentation

Pterostilbene is a chemical found in plants that has strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. These properties make it potentially useful for preventing skin cancer and other skin conditions. However, until recently, there had not been any research examining the effects of pterostilbene on pigment production in the skin…
