Noticing the presence of spots on the hands is a common experience, the result of the passing of time, daily stress, an unbalanced diet, and above all, exposure to the sun’s rays, which penetrate deep into the skin, accelerating the loss of collagen and elasticity.
The skin thus becomes thinner, less firm, and prone to discolorations such as age spots. These spots, also known as solar lentigines, appear when melanin production becomes irregular. Natural aging contributes to this phenomenon: the skin weakens, regenerates more slowly, and becomes more fragile.
While these stains aren’t dangerous, it’s important to monitor for any changes in shape, color, or consistency. For those seeking simple, natural remedies, an effective home treatment can be made with three readily available ingredients: a vitamin E capsule, a tablespoon of organic honey, and a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil.
