Darkened, Tanned Skin

Primary reason for dark pigmented skin is due to exposure to the sun. The ultraviolet rays cause an increase in melanin, thereby leading to a darker appearance. It is primarily seen on sun exposed areas like face, neck, hands etc. It is also environmental in nature such that it increases in places of higher altitude and beaches where there is a higher exposure to uv rays. Outdoor activities like swimming also tend to affect the same.

Sometimes tan disappears on its own over a few days in cases of sun exposure for short duration. But in cases of continuous and prolonged sun exposure tanning keeps on increasing and is near permanent in nature. It is in this case that patients generally apporach us to remove the tan and restore their skin tone.

The treatments we provide at INURSKN cater to removing / reducing tan. The idea is to reduce pigmentation by means of external intervention in various forms as described under treatments. When it comes to de-tanning and skin lightening treatments we are one of the foremost choices in Powai, Mumbai.
