The Cons Of Using Skin Whitening Products

By Rod T Sully


Every individual would want their body to be beautiful and smooth without any dark marks. It is therefore very unfortunate that some individuals would go to the extreme in trying to achieve this beauty. A person may thus buy different types of skin whitening products which they may use. Before someone uses these products, they need to know the disadvantages associated with these products.

Skin thinning is a very serious condition that one can get by using whitening products. A person ends up having their capillaries exposed. One may also get severe stretch marks which may prove difficult to remove. One should therefore weigh their options before they use these products.

A person that has had acne problems may end up having acne scars. These scars are quite difficult to get rid off hence someone may turn to lightening creams. However, most of these creams that are bought over the counter contain steroids; they may therefore end up damaging the body more after continued use thus leaving the person with a greater problem than they had.

It is prohibited for companies in the United States to make lightening products using steroids. This is because if someone uses these products for a long time, they can lead to increase in blood sugar levels that may lead to one having diabetes. The increase in sugar levels in a person who is already diabetic can be disastrous and may even result to the death of an individual in extreme cases.

Several manufactures use mercury in making creams since mercury prevents the formation of melanin which causes the body to darken and tan. Using products containing mercury may lead to mercury poisoning that can lead to kidney damage. Mercury cannot be used in making lightening creams in United States however imported products containing mercury can be found in the market and people should be aware of this.

The whitening creams are normally used to lighten the body. There are however situations if not applied in the right way they can lead to uneven tone on wherever they are applied. This problem may be harder for someone to deal with it.

Before a person can go over the counter and request for skin whitening products they should evaluate the disadvantages of using these products. An evaluation of all the disadvantages can enable a person from making a great mistake. Such a mistake may even have led to permanent damage on an individual.
