Many home remedies might help those looking for natural substitutes for commercial medicines reduce the look of age spots. Although these therapies might not have the same effects as clinical ones, some people find great success from them and they are generally milder on the skin. The following are some well-known natural therapies to take into thought:
With so much citrous acid, lemon juice is a well-known natural bleaching agent. Topically applied it can help reduce age spots. To apply lemon juice, just squeeze fresh juice from a lemon and dab it straight on the afflicted areas with a cotton ball. Leave it on for ten to fifteen minutes before running lukewarm water washing over it. But lemon juice should be used carefully since it increases the sensitivity of your skin to sunlight. Always wash your skin with lemon juice then apply sunscreen.
Apple cider vinegar, which has acetic acid noted for skin-brightening effects, is another great natural cure. Mix equal quantities vinegar and water, then apply the mixture—using a cotton ball—to the age spots. Apple cider vinegar Leave it on for almost half an hour before washing off. Regular use could over time help to lighten the spots.
Aloe vera's calming and therapeutic qualities are well known. It includes a naturally occurring chemical called aloin that has been demonstrated to reduce pigment. Before bed, straight from the plant, apply fresh aloe vera gel to the afflicted regions; allow it overnight. Finish it in the morning. Apart from helping to fade age spots, aloe vera moisturizes and nourishes the skin.
Another naturally occurring cure with increasing appeal for skin-brightening properties is turmeric. The primary component in turmeric, curcumin possesses anti-inflammatory and antioxidant qualities that might help fade pigment. To make a turmeric paste, thickly stir turmeric powder with milk or yogurt. Apply it to the aging spots, keep it on for almost half an hour, then rinse off. Since turmeric can temporarily discolor the skin, be careful; so, it is advisable to start with a patch test.
Although natural therapies have advantages, individual results will differ. < Certain elements may also cause allergic responses or skin irritation to some individuals. Before introducing any fresh treatment to your skin, always do a patch test.
Including these natural treatments into your skincare regimen offers a mild way to fade age spots. To get more notable results, though, think about combining these treatments with additional ones and always give sun protection first priority in order to stop new pigment development.
