How to get rid of pigmentation on face after pregnancy?
I delivered 3 months back and these dark patches on my cheeks and upper lip are still not going. They came during pregnancy and i thought they would fade by now but nope. Did anyone get rid of this post delivery? Thoda upset about it honestly.
Haan na, this pigmentation is very annoying, ho na? I used to apply fresh potato juice or raw milk on my face, it slowly lightened the spots naturally. Try it once!
Many creams contain chemicals that aren't safe if you are breastfeeding. Please consult your dermatologist or gynac before applying any strong pigmentation creams on your face.
My dermatologist told me that postpartum pigmentation (melasma) is hormonal and often goes away on its own. She advised using a pregnancy-safe sunscreen with SPF 50 and avoiding direct sun. Don't use any peeling agents without medical guidance.
Oh, I panicked so much seeing my dark cheeks! I tried googling every remedy but got scared of side effects. Honestly, just using a safe mineral sunscreen daily helped the most, but check with a doc first.
I know how frustrating it is to look in the mirror and see those dark patches when you are already so exhausted. It's totally normal and usually fades with time. Be gentle on yourself, you are doing great!
My mother suggested applying a paste of wild turmeric (kasturi manjal) and curd, which is very soothing. However, if it's very stubborn, it's best to consult a good doctor for safe postpartum skin treatments.
