Hi I have noticed recently that I am getting some brown like freckles on my cheek bone area. It looks like this is a result of sun damage, also maybe similar to age spots.

Doe's anybody know of a home remedy to remove this?

Thanks

A facial peel might help. [removed]
Good luck!

I would use the store bought fade cream. I have used this on several brown spots on my face and it really does work. You will need to use a sun screen afterwards or they will come right back.

What's in it? The ingredients?

Thanks

Like Porcelana fade cream with 2% Hydroquinone...there are a lot of fade creams and you can buy it at any Walmart etc.

2% is not anywhere near as effective as 4% and that can only be had with a prescription. Many dermatologists sell the 4% kind. It is expensive.

The paste I've used the prescription creams and the stuff came right back

I have used Epiquin from my derm that is 4%. It took about 4-6 weeks before it lightened my BCP mask and my freckles. They did not go 100% away cause my spots are layers deep. When I went out in the sun they would darken and come back.

I'm going for Fraxel in the winter to hoepfully reach the deeper layers.
