What is Hori Nevus? Causes and Treatment Options

Hori Nevus is considered one of the most difficult skin conditions to treat, significantly affecting the appearance of the face. What causes Hori Nevus to appear on the skin, and how can it be effectively treated? Let’s explore these questions with Keangnam Korea in the following content!

What is Hori Nevus?

Hori Nevus, also known as deep dermal pigmentation or hormonal pigmentation, occurs when melanin pigments accumulate excessively in the skin. Unlike surface-level pigmentation like freckles or melasma, Hori Nevus has pigmentation that penetrates deep into the dermis and subcutaneous layers, making it one of the most difficult types to treat.

5 Causes of Hori Nevus

Hori Nevus, also known as deep dermal melasma, is caused by various factors. Below are the main causes:

1. Aging Process

As we age, skin issues become more common, including the development of Hori Nevus. After the age of 30, the skin enters the aging phase, during which the depletion of elastin and collagen leads to brown spots, dark patches, sagging skin, dullness, and wrinkles around the eyes.

2. Hormonal Imbalance

Women going through menopause, pregnancy, or postpartum are more likely to experience Hori Nevus due to hormonal fluctuations. Changes in estrogen levels increase melanin production, causing an overproduction of pigment that rises to the skin’s surface, resulting in Hori Nevus and other skin issues like freckles, dark spots, and melasma.

3. Sun Exposure

One of the primary causes of Hori Nevus is direct exposure to sunlight. UV rays trigger the body to produce melanin as a natural defense, but excessive production of melanin accumulates in the skin, forming deep pigmentation like Hori Nevus.

4. Use of Low-Quality Skincare Products

Hori Nevus can also develop from using low-quality or unverified skincare products. These products often contain harmful ingredients, such as corticosteroids, which weaken the skin’s protective barrier. This makes the skin more sensitive, prone to sun damage, and more likely to develop Hori Nevus.

5. Poor Diet

An improper diet can contribute to the formation of Hori Nevus. Foods high in fats and sugars can release AGEs (Advanced Glycation End Products), which damage collagen, reduce skin elasticity, and hinder skin regeneration. This results in weakened, damaged skin that becomes more susceptible to conditions like Hori Nevus.

Can Hori Nevus Be Treated?

The treatment for Hori Nevus depends on several factors, including the underlying cause, the severity of the condition, the treatment plan, and post-treatment care. For most cases caused by external factors, complete treatment is usually possible. However, the ease and speed of treatment can vary depending on how deeply the Hori Nevus has penetrated the dermis.

Therefore, the most important aspect of treating Hori Nevus is following the doctor’s recommendations and guidelines closely. This approach ensures that the skin can recover quickly and return to a healthy, radiant state.

5 Popular Treatments for Hori Nevus

Here are some current methods for treating Hori Nevus, along with their pros and cons that clients should be aware of:

1. Home Treatment with Hori Nevus Creams

This method helps to lighten dark spots, combat aging, and protect surrounding skin. However, these creams are generally suitable only for early-stage Hori Nevus or as a complementary treatment alongside other methods. Achieving desired results with creams alone can be challenging.

When using Hori Nevus creams, it’s important to consult a dermatologist, choose products from reputable brands, and follow a regimen that matches your skin condition.

2. Using Hori Nevus Creams

There is a variety of creams available that contain ingredients aimed at reducing brown spots and preventing freckles, such as Vitamin C, Retinoic Acid, and Arbutin. However, most creams only affect the epidermis and have limited impact on deeper layers where Hori Nevus resides, making it difficult to address severe cases effectively.

3. Natural Treatments for Pigmentation

One way to treat pigmentation at home is by using traditional remedies. These methods have the advantage of using natural, gentle ingredients that are easy to obtain and affordable. Common natural ingredients used for pigmentation treatments include potatoes, tomatoes, and perilla leaves.

However, this approach requires patience. Similar to the previously mentioned methods, it is most effective for early signs of pigmentation and may not be as effective for deep-set cases.

4. Laser Treatment for Pigmentation

Laser treatment for deep pigmentation is highly effective and can improve skin tone significantly. The laser targets the pigments in the skin, breaking down the pigment bonds and stimulating the immune system to help remove melanin.

After each session, clients will gradually see a reduction in pigmentation and achieve a healthier, brighter complexion. The advantage of this method is its immediate effectiveness after a few sessions. However, for severe cases of pigmentation, it may require a combination of additional treatments and a longer treatment plan.
