Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of dark spots appearing on my face which occur due to over sun exposure . Sun exposure trigger the melanocytes of skin to produce melanin pigment which cause dark complexion or dark spots. I would suggest you to :-

- Avoid oily and spicy food.

- Wash your face with cold water and mild soap twice a day .

- Exfoliate your skin once a week to remove the dead skin and bacteria .

- Apply broad spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 even if your are not under sun exposure to prevent your skin from further damage .

- Apply kojic acid cream at night which is a natural extract of mushroom , very effective and safe for long term use.

- Avoid use of steroids on face.

If condition doesn't start getting better then consult dermatologist for proper examination . Doctor may prescribe procedure like chemical peeling , microdermabrassin. or may prescribe hydrocortisone cream.

Drink at least 8-9 glasses f water daily and eat citrus fruits.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
