Where it often starts
Osmosis sees uneven tone as a sign of inflammation, and it links age spots and melasma to the liver, while marks left after breakouts are the skin's protective response and not permanent.

Pigment responds to heat, light, and inflammation. Protect first, then correct, and give it time: tone changes take weeks, not days.
