Dull Skin
As skin ages, it can lose its radiance and appear dull. This is not the same as a tanned or yellowish skin tone, which may involve hyperpigmentation.
Symptoms
Yellow skin ≠ dull skin. Dull skin is rough, lacking shine, with uneven tone.
Causes
1. Dry skin / epidermis
Dry skin occurs when skin cells become dehydrated and show larger gaps between them. This leads to increased water loss and the skin becoming even drier, with a higher risk of fine lines. Moisturizing is crucial to prevent this.
2. Skin oxidation
Our body produces reactive oxygen radicals as a by-product of metabolism, similar to how a train emits exhaust gas. Excessive free radicals from prolonged computer or mobile phone use, lack of sleep, or emotional stress can harm skin, causing it to appear grey or yellow. Like a cut apple left out, skin oxidation is a natural process that results in discoloration.
3. Hyperpigmentation caused by sun exposure
Not protecting your skin from the sun makes it look dull and worsens dark spots.
4. Abnormal epidermal renewal
Our skin normally makes new cells and sheds old ones. But sometimes old cells block hair follicles and bind with sebum, causing bumps and dull skin.
5. Reduction in the oxygen carrying capacity of blood
Haemoglobin is a protein that delivers oxygen to the cells in our body. Adequate oxygen in the blood means nutrients are delivered to skin cells. Nourished skin will appear radiant and refreshed.
6. Prone to allergies
If you have a tendency to allergies, your skin may appear dull and you might have dark circles under your eyes. This is often caused by damage to the skin barrier, as well as a repaired sebum barrier, dry skin, and an inability to retain water in the skin.
Treatment
Two ways to improve skin glow: Stop melanin release by blocking melanocytes stimulation. Interfere melanin production and increase skin antioxidants when melanocytes are active.

PicoSure laser treatment offered by Skinspire Laser & Skin Clinic, safely removes tattoos and pigmentation using a 755nm wavelength of light. The FOCUS lens concentrates energy into the skin to break down melanin and stimulate collagen repair, resulting in improved pigmentation, smoother skin, smaller pores, and a more youthful appearance. Approved by the FDA and CFDA.
How does PicoSure Laser work
Under “BOOST” mode, the pulse width of the PicoSure can be adjusted and compressed from 750 to 550PS, which can increase the pressure by 70%. The 755 nm wavelength light that can be absorbed by melanin is irradiated on melanin, and all the energy is released within picoseconds. Due to the high energy released within a short period of time, melanin molecules are not able to absorb all the energy and eventually burst into smaller particles. The resulting particles will then be eliminated by the body.
