Among the questions that are most often asked to a beauty editor, there is also the question of how remove post acne blemishes. Because let’s face it, who manages not to squeeze that pimple that appears at all ages, and then not to pull the crust repeatedly, to the point of making the skin inflamed to the point of seeing a dark spot appear, a clear reminder of what we shouldn’t have done? Do?
The time has therefore come to be able to provide, once and for all, the answer to the most frequent question in the beauty world and which provides us Chiara Ponzio, Product Education Manager Korff.
How to permanently eliminate post-acne facial blemishes?
«Post-imperfection spots are very common post-inflammatory hyperpigmentations and
characterized by an important psychological impact on those who suffer from it. To deal with this
condition, the support of an ad hoc dermocosmetic protocol that includes non
only products containing depigmenting active ingredients, but also a valid daily sun protection that allows you to work to prevent the development of new spots.”
How long does it take to remove them and how regularly should the treatment be applied?
«The time needed to appreciate the first results of the anti-spot routine is subjective as it is the physiology and “history” of the skin that plays the role. However, to obtain a tangible result in the shortest possible time, the depigmenting protocol must be applied daily and consistently.”
What are the ingredients to prefer in cosmetics?
«The process that leads to the formation of spots, called melanogenesis, is particularly
articulated and includes several steps on which it is possible to intervene with specific assets, among these
thearbutinwhich inhibits the very first step that leads to the production of melanin, the alpha-hydroxy acids including glycolic acid, which have an exfoliating action and allow
the removal of melanin-rich cells. To obtain tangible results in the shortest possible time, it is recommended to exploit the synergy of the various active ingredients which, used within the same protocol, guarantee action on every step of the melanin production process.”
Is the protocol also suitable for sensitive skin (with vitiligo) and pregnancy?
«The anti-stain protocols work effectively in case of skin with hyperpigmentations such as
post-imperfection spots, it can also be used in case of sensitive skin as long as i
selected products are dermatologically tested not only on normal but also sensitive skin.
All cosmetics can be used during pregnancy except those containing retinoids:
in any case it is advisable to ask your gynecologist or doctor for advice.”
What are the most suitable aesthetic medicine solutions in case of post-acne spots?
«Even for this type of stains, the most used aesthetic dermatology treatments are, for example, the peeling and laser therapiesto be done preferably in the winter months when there is less sun, to optimize the results it is possible to introduce dermocosmetic support in the pre- and post-outpatient treatment.”
A stain-fighting protocol proposed by Korff includes the AHA Depigmenting Exfoliating Solution, a solution delicate exfoliant with a lightening action that effectively reduces discolouration, combats dull and uneven skin tone, increasing brightness.
Korff Depigmenting Exfoliating Solution contributes to skin renewal. Suitable for hyperpigmented skin to even out and illuminate the complexion. Contains a complex of 5 AHAs: lactic acid, glycolic acid, citric acid, malic acid and tartaric acid. Improves skin hydration leaving it brighter. With the first applications, tingling and skin redness may appear. Containing alpha hydroxy acids it can increase sensitivity to the sun and UVA lamps, so it is better to avoid them during treatment.
Purifying Sal Exfoliating Solution it is delicate and purifying, removes impurities and excess sebum, reduces the typical blemishes of combination and oily skin, improving its size and appearance.

AA-PE Depigmenting Face Serum It is an intensive shock treatment for the correction of skin hyperpigmentation. Formulated with 2% alpha-arbutin and 4.9% lactobacillus/pomegranate extract, it effectively reduces blemishes, improves skin brightness and reduces the depth of wrinkles in 4 weeks. Alpha-arbutin is a derivative of Arbutus sp., a plant belonging to the Ericaceae family, very widespread in Japan and the rest of Asia. It is used to combat localized hyperpigmentation, such as age spots and sun exposure spots. Dark spots on the skin are in fact due to an accumulation of melanin, the pigment which, together with beta-carotene and hemoglobin, is responsible for the color of the skin. Melanin is produced by the enzyme tyrosinase. The action of alpha-arbutin is to inhibit the tyrosinase enzyme with a consequent depigmenting effect.
