Pigmentation or hyperpigmentation appears because of a protein called melanin produced by cells called melanocytes. The production of melanin is one of the most fascinating defense mechanisms of the skin. When the skin is damaged through a wound, or when there is exposure to harmful UVA/UVB radiation through the sun. The skin gets protective of itself, and melanocytes start over producing melanin. The deposit of melanin in the outer layer of the skin ensures the restriction of external irritants or potentially harmful elements (like UVA UVB rays) from entering the body and causes DNA alterations.
Therefore, when skin cells are damaged or are unhealthy, they can produce excessive melanin causing melanin to clump and the appearance of dark patches on the skin, tanning or brown/black spots.

Pigmentation is best treated with oil-based remedies that are rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties.
Ozone Signature’s Kumkumadi Thailam is an Ayurvedic herbal oil with strong antioxidant properties, that protect against free radical damage and boost skin texture.
Pigmented skin is prone to sun damage which exacerbates the issue. Our gentle and natural therapy oil is derived from sesame oil that moisturizes the skin from deep within to sooth inflamed skin and work as an emollient.
Regular massage with sesame oil improves blood circulation and heals and repairs the skin for lifelong wellness.
Sesame oil is rich in vitamin E that strengthens the tone of the skin and acts as a natural sunscreen by blocking UV ray penetration into the skin.
This potent therapy also contains a blend of licorice and Indian barberry that inhibit the enzyme tyrosinase, which works in melanin production. It leaves the skin supple and smooth, with a bright and even complexion.

Shellac (Laksha)
Laksha or lac is a gum-like substance obtained from the lac insect Laccifer lacca. It is especially used for its wound healing benefits. It also effectively reduces scars and is beneficial for skin problems like rashes and acne.
Licorice (Mulethi)
Licorice is a natural skin lightening and brightening ingredient. It inhibits the enzyme involved in melanin formation. It also corrects skin pigmentation and hyperpigmentation. It also has a tightening and firming action on the skin.
While chemical treatments for brown spots and patches are common, the ingredients are harsh and irritating. A popular topical cream, hydroquinone, is known for slowing down the pigment-making process in the skin, but higher concentrations of it are toxic and it is banned in most countries. It can leave the skin irritated and actually increases pigmentation from overuse.
Ozone Signature’s Kumkumadi Thailam is derived completely from plant-based ingredients that naturally cleanse the skin of toxins, purify from within, regenerate healthy tissues, leading to a safer, but more effective treatment in the long term.
Most creams use mineral oils, paraffin wax or petrolatum (petroleum jelly) as a base. Too dense to be absorbed into the skin, these create an oily layer on the skin’s surface which clogs pores, traps dirt, and causes blackheads and acne.
All Ozone’s restorative serums use sesame oil as the base. Sesame oil mimics the body’s natural oil production and penetrates the deepest layers of the skin, carrying the full potency of our 100% organic, time-tested, herbal remedies.
Kumkumadi Thailam can significantly lighten spots, blemishes and pigmentation over long term use.
The blend of active ingredients with sesame oil work from deep within the skin to reduce inflammation and restore its natural, smooth, and healthy state. Regular use improves circulation and evens discolored skin tone.
You should start to see results in about 20 days of regular application. However, for severe cases, you may see noticeable results only after 6-8 weeks. As a preventive measure, always wear sunscreen. We recommend making the therapeutic oil a regular part of your skincare regime.
However, if you see a darkened spot that’s different from the others, is growing or irregular in shape, changes color and size, please consult your doctor.
The ancient Indian science of Ayurveda is one of the world’s oldest proven healing systems. Based on the belief that health and wellness depend on a delicate balance between the mind, body, and spirit, Ayurveda seeks to restore health by harmonizing the biological energies (doshas).
Pigmentation is caused by an imbalance and accumulation of the Vata and Pitta doshas in the body which govern the elements of ether, air, fire and water. It causes the skin to become discolored and develop brown or red patches.
Ozone Signature’s Kumkumadi Thailam pacifies the Vata and Pitta doshas, bringing the body back into balance or equilibrium.
