Pigmentation caused by Genetics and Ethnicity


If you are of Middle Eastern heritage you have a genetic predisposition to darker pigment in the skin and particularly under the eye area. This is a very common issue for people with darker skin types and more challenging to treat.

Very Important First Step!!

All skin colours are predisposed to hyper pigmentation (Overproduction of melanin in our skin). We incorrectly presume that just because someone is darker in skin colour that they are protected from exposure to the damaging effects of UV. Unfortunately this is not true. A person with darker skin may not burn like someone with whiter skin but they are just as vulnerable to sun damage in the form of dark patches (Pigmentation) so it is as important for this skin type to use a UV protection to prevent the area from becoming more pigmentated from further exposure to UV damage. This will not get rid of the darkness but it will certainly prevent it from getting worse and is a very IMPORTANT first step!

To be perfectly honest this genetic pigmentation is almost impossible to eliminate. However, preventing it from becoming a more serious problem is very achievable and highly recommended. The following tips for treating and preventing further eye discolouration from pigmentation in this blog will be a step in the right direction.
