People look their best with pouty pink lips. The primary job of the lips is aesthetic enhancement. From kissing to eating, everything must involve the participation of the lips. Lip treatment require careful attention in order to remain supple, velvety, nourished, and moisturised.


However, besides their colour and texture, we also need to be concerned about their health. Other concerns such as chapped lips, dry lips, and pigmented lips make the lips unappealing.




Lip freckles


The most frequent of all lip concerns are little black spots on the lips. The lower and upper lips, usually, do not have these patches. Their lips have darker pigmentation. Freckles are generated when pigment cells grow in the lip skin just underneath the surface layer. While our outer skin has multiple cellular layers, the skin of our lips has only three to five layers. This does not reveal the underlying blood vessel colour, and in addition, highlights the lip spots. So, it was easy to notice the freckles on the lips. Common in light-skinned folks.


Sun Exposure


Sun exposure is a common cause of pigmentation on the lips. Our skin is damaged when exposed to UV radiation of the sun. The body's natural defence mechanism activates the melanin-producing pigmentation cells in the lip skin to reduce the detrimental impact of UV radiation. Melanin-bearing cells congregate, leading to freckles. Once the sun has done its damage, these patches can form. Tobacco and alcohol use are other major contributors to skin moles and freckles. This can also be due to genetics and age.
