Risingbd Desk: There are a lot of ways on how to get rid of dark spots on face. You also have a lot of choices, ranging from home remedies to medical treatments.

Try lemon juice.

Lemon juice is acidic in nature, and this acidity helps reduce dark spots on face. Use a cotton ball to apply lemon juice on your dark spots twice a day. It is a good idea to test this first on a small area of your face to see how your skin will react to the lemon juice.

Use aloe vera.

Aloe vera has been used for many years as a remedy for various skin problems. It has healing properties that evens out your skin tone and reduces brown spots.

Use topical treatments with hydroquinone.

There are a lot of topical treatments on the market that promise to get rid of dark spots on face. Choose one that contains hydroquinone, a bleaching agent that helps remove dark spots and is proven safe to be used on the skin. You can also use one that contains kojic acid, which has bleaching properties as well.

Try salicylic acid.

You may have heard of salicylic acid being used to treat acne but it can also be used to lighten dark spots. Salicylic acid works by causing the outermost layer of the skin to soften, and then peel. This helps remove dead skin cells from the skin and allows new skin cells to surface.

Wear sunscreen.

Sun damage is the primary cause of dark spots so you would want to protect yourself from the harmful rays of the sun. Wear sunscreen with at least SPF 30 about 20 minutes before leaving your house. Also make sure that you wear protective gears and clothing that minimize sun contact as much as possible.

Medical treatments.

If you have the money and you want to remove dark spots on your face fast, you can opt for medical treatments. Common treatments for dark spots include chemical peel, microdermabrasion, and laser therapy. Chemical peel and microdermabrasion promote skin regeneration by removing the top layer of the skin. Laser therapy involves the use of different types of lasers that reduce accumulated melanin on a certain area. It is best to consult your doctor and ask which treatment you should use to finally clear your face from dark spots.
