What Is Tan On The Skin?

Tanning refers to the skin's darkening after the skin’s over and extended exposure to high-intensity sun rays. This pigmentation problem may worsen over time if the skin is not kept sun-protected. It is not a fatal condition but surely a cosmetic concern that can later on impact skin health too. 

What causes Skin Tanning?

The major cause of skin tanning is sunlight. The sunlight includes UV A, UV B, and UV C rays, which can harm the skin by disrupting the normal functioning of skin cells. To protect from sun damage, our skin has natural sun protection in the form of melanin pigment. Melanin is a coloured pigment produced by specialized skin cells called melanocytes.
 
When the UV rays hit the skin, beyond what is accepted, the melanin pigment is produced in excess, leading to skin darkening. Dark-complexioned people tan more than light-complexioned people because their skin produces more melanin.

Best Professional Treatments for Removing Sun Tanning

Dermatologists in Noida at Skinlogics recommend a combination of preventive measures to avoid sun tanning or its worsening and in-clinic treatments for existing sun tan, thus collectively helping reduce sun tan.

• Chemical peeling- The trained skin therapists thoroughly clean the tanned skin and then apply an acid solution of particular strength, depending on the extent of tanning. The chemical peel penetrates the tanned skin to exfoliate it in a controlled manner, thereby restoring the skin’s natural tone. For superficial or medium peels, multiple sessions are required to achieve optimal skin lightening.
• Photo facial/IPL- The trained skin doctors use intense pulsed light to heat and destroy the extra melanin, thereby reducing the skin’s melanin content. Multiple sessions are required for desired results. There is no downtime. 
• Laser toning- The trained skin experts make use of a non-ablative, Q-switched Nd: YAG laser to systematically get rid of extra melanin in the tanned skin while peeling off the skin and stimulating collagen skin remodelling. Around 6 to 8 sittings are required for effective removal of sun tan.
• Microdermabrasion- This is another skin exfoliation treatment, where skin therapists use a specialized skin resurfacing tool to remove skin cell debris and sun-tanned layers of the skin. The technique involves the use of either a diamond-tipped handpiece or the use of a tool that gently sprays abrasive crystals onto the tanned skin to peel away the outer skin layers. Multiple sessions are a must to achieve desired treatment outcomes.

Alternative Options For Sun Tan Removal

Dermatologists may recommend tan removal creams or cleansers and face packs that work to lighten the skin. These are mainly recommended for superficial sun tanning. 

They are to be used either solely or in combination with in-clinic treatments. Many people also opt for home-remedies, but the results are sometimes not so worthy or may worsen the skin concern.

What are the benefits of sun tan removal?

Direct, prolonged, or overexposure to the sun’s harmful UV rays can lead to tanning or other serious health risks.

Dermatologists recommend timely getting sun-tanned skin treated to:

• Avoid sunburns, skin cancers, actinic or solar keratoses, premature aging concerns, weak immunity, and eye diseases.
• Help one get back natural evenly toned skin, improved skin texture and health, and a youthful radiance, thus making one feel and look confident in one’s appearance. 

All professional sun tan removal options available at Skinlogics are minimally invasive and associated with minimal discomfort, downtime, side effects, and recovery. 

How To Avoid Sun Tanning?

To keep skin bright, healthy, and youthful-glowing, take these steps to avoid sun tan:

• Stay away from direct sunlight or UV exposure by limiting outdoor activities in the daytime when sun rays are at maximum intensity. If outdoors, seek shade and cover up nicely
• Daily apply broad-spectrum sunscreen of SPF 30 above on all exposed body parts, 15-30 minutes before stepping outside in the daytime. For sustained sun protection, make sure to apply sunscreen every 2-3 hours, especially following swimming and sweating
• Do not miss on sun-protecting the lips with lip balm having SPF
• Have a healthy diet, rich in antioxidants to ensure healthy skin
• Keep skin clean and hydrated.

To maintain the results and prevent further tanning, it’s very important to diligently practice a good skincare routine including sun protection.

Are home remedies effective for sun tan removal?

Consistent use of honey, coconut milk, aloe vera, turmeric, or besan flour can provide skin exfoliation, lightening, and soothing effects, which can help remove mild to moderate tans. However, these home remedies are not beneficial for severe sun tanning. A professional suntan removal treatment is more effective and faster in removing sun tanning to any extent. Home remedies can be an add-on to professional treatment, yielding enhanced results.
