Hi,

Welcome to HCM...

You seem to have facial melanosis. There may be some cause. Excessive sun exposure,cosmetics,hair oil,cosmetics,hair dye, pollution, vitamin and mineral deficiencies,internal diseases like thyroid dysfunction...etc can cause facial melanosis. You consult dermatologist and have firm diagnosis.

I would like to recommend as follow..

- vitamin C tab 500 mg twice a day
- glutathion containing tab once a day
- apply kojic acid gel at night on lesion
- sunscreen gel during day time
- cleanse the face with glycolic acid containing face wash

I hope this would help you.

Thanks.
