Herbal Remedies To Remove Age Spots

August 25, 2009




acne-problemThere are many herbal remedies available for age spots but it is not known if all of them actually work. Lemon juice is said to be the best for age spots but in reality it does not show any difference.

However you can give it a shot as it is very cheap. If you do see some changes it is due to the anti oxidants present in the lemon though it is not the strongest antioxidant around.

There has been considerable debate whether antioxidants can repair the damage caused to the skin due to aging. Vitamin E creams help to a certain extent in preventing spotting of the skin or pigmentation. The primary concern however is not that of the skin’s appearance, it is more to do with the aging of the various organs and also the prevention of cancer.

How do antioxidants work? They neutralise the free radicals that are present in the body. This free radical is one of the reasons of cellular aging and also has a part in causing cancer of the skin through changes in the cellular DNA.

Home remedies containing Coenzyme Q10 antioxidant would be the most effective therapy for reducing age spots. They are particularly good in repairing damage caused to excessive exposure to the sun and the wrinkles as a result of that and also set right uneven pigmentation. Your skin complexion and texture improves a great deal. Pigmentation of the skin is mostly due to the sun though there are many others factors that contribute to the unevenness too. A specific cause cannot be identified easily.

Hydroquinone is a popular natural treatment for reducing age spots by slowing down the production of melanin. Despite being a natural ingredient it is harmful for the skin as it causes a great risk of skin cancer and hence its usage is prohibited in a lot of countries.

A safer remedy to slow down your melanin production thereby reducing age spots is Cyperus Rotundus extracts. When combined with keratin protein it not only lightens the skin but also produces new cells. The only negative that can be noticed is that it is not limited only to the spot and lightens the entire area. You can get creams from the market with a combination of all these ingredients to keep your skin looking young and healthy.
