Derated Thurst T/O

Why does a derated thrust takeoff allow for a higher takeoff weight? I see the relation of a derated takeoff lowering Vmcg. Does that then allow for a higher weight when the runway is the limiting factor in the takeoff weight? Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated. Thanks
