💋 Why do lips become darker over time?💋
If you have brown or Black skin, lip pigmentation is incredibly common. While genetics can play a role, darkening of the lips is often made worse by sun exposure, inflammation, lip licking, smoking, certain lip products, and hormonal changes.
People with skin of colour naturally have more active pigment-producing cells (melanocytes), making the lips more prone to developing excess pigmentation.
☀️ One of the easiest ways to protect your lips is by applying sunscreen or your facial SPF over your lips every day, or even better, using an SPF lip balm.
❗️❗️Most people protect their face but completely forget about their lips!❗️❗️
However, if you already have lip pigmentation, prevention alone may not be enough.
✨ PICO laser is one of the most effective treatments for lip pigmentation. It works by breaking down excess pigment into tiny particles that are naturally cleared by the body, helping to create brighter, more even-toned lips.
The result? Healthier-looking, smoother, brighter lips when combined with good lip care and daily SPF.
