Spots on the face mostly refer to chloasma, freckles, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and other hyperpigmented skin diseases, which can be removed by general treatment, medication and physical therapy.
1. General treatment: patients should do a good job of sun protection, go out with a good hat or umbrella, increase the intake of fresh fruits to supplement vitamin C, don’t stay up late and pay attention to getting enough sleep.
2. Medication:
(1) Topical drugs: the above three kinds of pigmentation can be coated externally such as hydroquinone, azelaic acid, fruit acid and other medications, but it should be noted that these drugs have a certain degree of irritation to the skin, so they should be used under the guidance of the doctor, and should not be used blindly.
(2) Oral medication: The above three kinds of pigmentation can also be treated with oral medication such as tranexamic acid, vitamin C, vitamin E, etc., which can be used as antioxidant and inhibit the formation of melanin.
(3) Physical therapy: For freckle patients, the melanin cells can be broken down by the huge energy produced by laser or strong pulse light, and finally be removed by phagocytes to achieve the effect of removing freckles.
For patients with long spots on the face, it is recommended that they go to regular hospitals for consultation to clarify the specific causes of hyperpigmentation, and then choose appropriate treatment methods under the guidance of doctors.
