31. A Holistic Lens on Hyperpigmentation
Description
Emily discusses hyperpigmentation, or darker pigment patches on the skin from a holistic lens. She gets into causes and how to reduce or prevent it. She emphasizes the importance of understanding the factors that contribute to hyperpigmentation and taking control of them. Modalities such as lymphatic drainage, face cupping, red light therapy, and micro-needling can be beneficial. Topical ingredients like vitamin C, polyphenols, and tyrosinase inhibitors can also help. Lifestyle factors, such as eating a diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids and reducing inflammatory foods, can support skin health. Emotional and energetic contributors to hyperpigmentation may include resistance to change and a subconscious effort to protect oneself from emotional harm.
