Dark Spots: What They Are and How to Treat Them
Dark spots, also known as melasma, are small or larger brown patches that appear on the skin, mainly on the face, neck, and hands. Their appearance is often linked to sun exposure, hormonal changes such as during pregnancy or the use of contraceptives, as well as the natural aging of the skin. Although they are not a health concern, they can affect appearance and self-confidence, especially when they are darker or located in visible areas.
The good news is that dark spots can be prevented and reduced with proper skincare. Daily use of sunscreen, regular hydration, and products that target hyperpigmentation are essential steps.
With the right daily care and the use of appropriate MEY products, you can keep your skin healthy, radiant, and even-toned, reducing dark spots and boosting your confidence
