@conciergenurseuk: She'd been avoiding shorts for years because of her knees. Not her face but her knees. Dark, textured, rough and dismissed every time she brought it up. If you have deeper, melanin-rich skin you already know how stubborn this kind of pigmentation can be. Years of kneeling, dry skin, old scrapes that never fully faded — in deeper skin tones our melanocytes respond harder to that kind of friction, so the pigment builds up and stays longer. What actually shifts it: glycolic, citric and lactic acid to lift away the built-up dead skin, salicylic acid to work into the texture, tranexamic acid and hexylresorcinol to calm the pigment underneath and vitamin C to brighten it through. This is only step one. There's PicoGenesis laser coming next that takes it even further. I'll show you exactly why and how in part 2. July is Hyperpigmentation Awareness Month. If your knees are the thing you've been hiding too, comment "KNEES" below 👇🏾 and follow so you don't miss part two. 📍Concierge Nurse UK | Wakefield 👩🏽‍⚕️Independent Nurse Prescriber. 🫶🏽Melanin-rich Skin Specialist 🏆Award Winning Practitioner #kneehyperpigmentation #hyperpigmentation #skinclinic #hyperpigmentationawarenessmonth #melaninrichskin
