What Causes Developing Brown Spots On Nose,cheeks And Forehead?

I am 31 years old Indian female. I developed a few brown spots on my nose four years back but they did not grow after that. I moved to UK last winter and this summer I noticed that my brown spots have become bigger and are spreading to cheeks and forehead. I feel every week there is a new faint spot. No one in my family has this problem. I don t understand how to contain it. I wear a spf 50 cream every time I go out in sun. Is there any way i can reduce it and stop the new ones from developing.

Hi Dear ,

Welcome to Health Care Magic Team.

Understanding your concern. As per your query developing brown spots on nose,cheeks and forehead is due to excessive exposure of skin to UV rays of sunlight. Due to this excessive exposure it caused burning sensation and it leads to hyper-pigmentation of skin. It could be because of hyperpigmentation of melanin in skin on exposure to sun light excessively. Sun Burn is a condition which gets easily cured by natural ways as well. TAN CARE and METARUB are very safe medical creams which reduces sunburn and whenever you go to outside apply on skin to prevent further exposure.Apply cotton swab dipped in tea tree oil and apply on burnt area for 10-15 min. For 2 times a day it will heal area very soon. Use of honey, cocunut oil is very effective. Have yoghurt in diet on daily basis. Whenever go outside cover your skin as much as you can, wrap cloth around face. Your symptoms will start resolving in 7-10 days. If your symptoms keeps on exagerrating then consult dermalogist for this again.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
