WHAT IS DARK LIPS ?
A “dark lips” refers to lips that appear darker in color than usual, which can result from various factors such as hyperpigmentation, smoking, dehydration, anemia, certain medical conditions, or excessive use of cosmetics.
WHAT ARE THE CAUSES ?
Dark lips can result from a variety of causes. Hyperpigmentation, often triggered by factors like sun exposure or hormonal changes, can lead to an increase in melanin production, darkening the lips. Smoking is another common culprit, as the chemicals in cigarettes and heat from smoking can darken lip color over time. Dehydration can also contribute to dark lips, making them appear dry and discolored. Additionally, conditions such as anemia, which results from iron or vitamin B12 deficiency, or certain medical conditions like melasma or Addison’s disease, can cause changes in lip pigmentation. Furthermore, excessive use of certain cosmetics containing ingredients that may darken the lips can also play a role.

DARK LIPS TREATMENT
Estilad Rosy microneedling can be an effective treatment option for dark lips, as it involves the use of tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen production and enhancing skin rejuvenation. This process can help improve lip texture, reduce pigmentation, and promote a more even tone. Additionally, the microneedling process allows for better absorption of topical treatments, enabling the delivery of brightening agents or other beneficial ingredients directly into the skin. Multiple sessions of Estilad Rosy microneedling may be required to achieve optimal results, and it’s essential to follow post-treatment care instructions provided by a qualified skincare professional.
PREVENTION
Lifestyle Habits
Preventing dark lips entails wearing SPF lip balm, staying hydrated, quitting smoking, eating healthily, limiting caffeine/alcohol, using gentle lip products, exfoliating regularly, and managing stress.
