The Power of Tyrosinase Inhibitors for Pigmentation | Glymed Plus

Tyrosinase Inhibitors are essential in any skincare routine in order to protect the skin from unwanted pigmentation. Whether you struggle with PIH (post-inflammatory pigmentation) from acne scarring, rosacea, picking, or any type of redness in the skin, it's crucial to maintain healthy, even-toned, skin.

Tyrosinase is the enzyme responsible for the first step in melanin production. This enzyme is your skins defense mechanism against damage and is responsible for stimulating melanocytes and producing melanin.

When cells have been damaged by inflammation, the Tyrosinase enzyme will send an excess of Tyrosine to the melanocyte which will result in overproduction of pigment. This is what you see as a scar or redness.

The best way to control an excess of melanin production is to target this crucial enzyme.

To reverse, correct, and prevent pigment,

A tyrosinase inhibitor is needed to reduce the enzyme tyrosinase from over producing.

We don’t want to stop this process from happening as the scar (or pigment) is created to protect the skin from harm, but what it does is slow down the process and only have melanin released to protect the skin.

Tyrosinase Inhibitors are needed to correct and prevent further pigment but it's also important to use them if you aren't currently struggling with these skin issues.

Even though you may have a beautiful, even skin tone tone right now, oftentimes pigment is lying underneath the skin and will surface later-on in life. By using a Tyrosinase Inhibitor consistently, you will be more likely to have an even skin tone for life!
