Dark spots l Things that are making it worse l Dermatologist

Our skin is very prone to develop dark spots . There are certain things you may feel is helping but might actually make dark spots worse
1.Over exfoliation: Though chemical peels can help lighten dark spots, it should be done only once or twice a month. Over exfoliation can damage skin barrier and make skin more prone to darken on sun exposure. This will make dark spots worse

2.Using too many products: sometimes in a bid to get rid of dark spots quickly we are over indulgent with skin care products. Buying everything you see on line and applying them may not be a good idea if you are struggling with dark spots. Remember , more the number of products , more the chances of getting irritation and hence worsening of dark spots

3.Not using a moisturiser: moisturiser is a very important part of skin care routine. When you are using skin lightening creams, it may irritate skin, so using a moisturiser becomes all the more important. Use a moisturiser with ceramides, lipids or peptides in them. Recommendations: oryza, requil ceramide moisturiser , suganda squalane ceramide moisturise,Aquaoat , Biosilk

4.Using home remedies like lemon. Home remedies may appear harmless and free of side effects but they aren’t. Lemons can irritate the skin and make skin sensitive to sun. This will worsen dark spots.

5.Not using a susncreen : whatever serums or creams you are using to fade dark spots, if you are not using a sunscreen then it is of no use. Sunscreen is ver Internet in prevent worsening of dark spots and fading it quickly.
