The spots that appear on our face are called melasma, and as I said earlier, may be due to many factors such as genetics, sun exposure, pregnancy, oral contraceptives, cosmetics and some drugs that contain toxic agents.

Obviously, to counteract this common problem yet so annoying is necessary to have some treatments, whether home or doctors, but it is best to determine in advance whether they are superficial or deep spots (this is done with a test light Wood ).

In the case of medical treatments, one of the best known is the application of the substance which is called hydroquinone; it inhibits the formation of other stain-causing substances. It can be used by creams or injections, but we must take great city with much to use, since an excess may cause skin cancer.

Likewise, the chemical peel is another good option for addressing the awkward spots, as long as it applies to people with fair skin, as in the case of those dark there is a risk of post-peeling hyper pigmentation that may worsen the appearance of melasma.

But while money together to go to the doctor or if our spots are not deep you can also implement some masks based on natural elements such as:

Mask of lemon and parsley.

Mix two tablespoons of chopped parsley, lemon juice and a tablespoon of sugar and apply the mixture over the freshly washed face. After several applications of stain color will lose considerably

Carrot mask.

Crush a medium-sized carrot, we add a splash of olive oil and two tablespoons of yogurt and get a mixture infallible against stains of the face (if we apply it every day before sleep better.)

Oatmeal mask.

Combine four tablespoons of oatmeal, a tablespoon of honey and lemon juice gradually and not only remove the stains of the face, but also facilitate the removal of pimples and blackheads.

Eye to these treatments work to avoid, among other things, sun exposure and intake of contraceptives that normally exacerbate the problem. Let me know how it went.

Disproportionately affects women and dark brown skin and besides being a health problem, is also a cosmetic problem that greatly affects the self esteem and presentation of a person cause of sometimes leading to severe depression.

The areas of the body most affected are the face (forehead, cheeks, jaw, mustache, nose and chin), neck and receiving intense ultraviolet radiation.

This skin disease affects more women than men and more frequently in people living in geographic areas with more intensity ultraviolet radiation.

The cause of this disease, but has been associated with:
Solar radiation.
Inheritance.
Pregnancy.
Use of hormonal contraceptives or hormone replacement therapy for menopause.
Thyroid diseases.
Constant proximity to emission sources of heat such as sauna baths, steam.
Constant proximity to fluorescent lighting and computers.
Excessive use of cosmetics and perfumes.
Injuries or blows to the skin.
Use of certain medications.

Although it is also called “liver spots and kidney”, there is evidence that diseases are caused by these two bodies.

Although there is no treatment that permanently remove stains, the dermatologist can suggest based on the origin of the spots, which can minimize the problem. There are some that may clarify or avoid leaving more as the use of skin lightening, the crazy-scrubs or peels, treatments with intense pulsed light devices and lasers, but these should always be applied by a specialist.
