on Jan 24, 2012 @ 12:58 pm I have some dark spots on my face that I got once when I spent the day out in the sun and didn't have enough protection. ( I dread that day every time I look in the mirror). I have been to a couple dermatologists that have prescribed me Hydroquinone which made my skin very red so I stopped using it. Is there any other remedy that might help the dis-coloration disappear once and for all? Also, I always use 60 spf now on my face, however when its a hot day outside, I feel my skin getting hot and burning in the area where the spots are. Does anyone know why this happens? |

![]() suzieee | invicible on Jul 28, 2012 @ 12:45 pm I'm having these dark spots too.I just noticed them few days back. I'm thinking of trying invicible scars on them.I've been hearing that invicible can be used every day and under makeup or sunscreen and results can be noticed in as little as two weeks. Has anyone here tried it ? Scar Zone and Scar Guard caused me allergies within a week of using it so i am very much scared now. Any response would be highly appreciated | |

![]() bubbles77 | Info I found in a great article I read !! on Jul 28, 2012 @ 06:45 pm 1.Milk is a good natural resource for treating dark facial spots. It contains lactic acid. It can be used either in the form of sour milk or buttermilk that has a gentle peeling effect which lightens skin without irritating it. 2.Apply parsley juice mixed with orange, lemon and red carrot juices on your skin gives a lightening effect that works well with freckles and brown spots. 3.Citrus fruits are a great source of natural vitamin. Fruits like lemons, oranges, and limes are rich in Vitamin C which is also a natural bleaching agent. Lemon is considered as one of the most beneficial for treating facial dark spots, especially for freckles and age spots. 4.Apply some lemon juice directly on the spot, either with your hands or using a cotton ball. The citric acid in the juice would work to bleach the spot, remove dirt and clarify your skin. 5.Dry orange skin powder is applied on the skin with rose water is an effective treatment for removing dark spots. 6.Honey is also a natural resource for treating dark facial spots. It has several skin renewing properties. It can be heated and applied alone or mixed with wheat germ for a more effective lightening effect. 7.Lemon juice is used as an ingredient for various treatments for curing facial dark spots. Take lemon or lime juice with various vegetable and fruit masks such as cucumbers and apricots is found to be very powerful for reducing the dark spots. 8.Make a paste of turmeric powder and orange juice. Scrub it on the area that is widely exposed to sun or cold weather. Leave it for 20 minutes and rinse it with cold water. 9. Make a face mask of curd and cucumber juice and apply it at least once a week. | |

![]() suefleming | IPL? on Nov 20, 2012 @ 08:45 pm Have you ever tried an IPL treatment? I used to have really bad dark spots on my chest (always wore sunscreen on my face but never thought to put it on my chest!) and had an IPL treatment done a few times and my dark spots are completely gone. (you can get it done on your face, and hands too im pretty sure) All your dark spots will become more visible in the day following then theyll literally just peel off, its amazing. Make sure you go to a real medical cosmetic clinic to get this done though (my girlfriend had a horror story with laser hair removal from a 'spa' so im always cautious about recommending treatments if theyre not from a credible place!) Hope that helps, - S. Fleming | |
