Facial black spots treatment: I have black spots on all over face . Please suggest some home remedies.
The black spots should be quite harmless to you unless they are getting bigger or are causing you a certain amount of pain. The reason that these spots are occurring are genetic and not symptomatic of a bigger disease. If the spots are in line with the skin and do not cause any kind of a raised structure then you probably have liver spots or lentigines. On the other hand, if the structure is slightly raised and it is of a darker pigmentation than the surrounding skin, you probably have a beauty mark. To remove a beauty mark, you would have to surgically cut off the offending part by using laser surgery or cauterizing the mole.
Liver spots usually develop over time and are a sign of aging and exposure to ultraviolet radiation. They are as much a part of the aging process as graying of the hair. These can be reduced or the shading of the liver spot can be reduced using home remedies as well as off-the-shelf products that are skin whiteners. Usually, the commercially available whiteners contain a substance called hydroquinone or a similar type of whitening agent. Vitamin C is also a popular additive to any skin whitening product. Based on this logic, you can also formulate your own home remedy. Vitamin E is also quite a useful addition to the skin. Start by buying some vitamin E capsules and drain their oil on to your skin. This application might seem a little uncomfortable but try and keep it on for about an hour. Wash this off and at a later time in the day, finely chop some onions and squeeze the juices out of them. This should also be applied to your skin for a few minutes until the juice has dried up. Onion is very rich in vitamin C and is one of the cheapest methods of getting vitamin C. Once the solution has dried up, slice a lemon and rub it over your face. After this, rinse and wash your face off with a face wash with whitening properties. Doing this ritual over a period of time should reduce the pigmentation problem.
Skin pigment is basically caused by a substance called melanin. It is created in the skin and is a natural sun block as it has the ability to convert ultraviolet radiation to harmless heat energy in a molecular reaction. However, because of that reaction, an oxidative effect takes place on the melanin causing the melanin to darken and therefore the tanning that you experience under the sun.
