Since my 4th month these dark patches have come on my cheeks and around neck. Nothing serious i know but it bothers me na. Anyone has tips that actually helped, safe ones pls.
I had severe pigmentation around my neck and face during my pregnancy. I just used a mild, pregnancy-safe vitamin C serum and a good physical sunscreen daily. Now that I am breastfeeding, most of it has already faded away on its own.
My mummy and saas both advised me to rub a little raw milk or cucumber juice on my face daily. Honestly, it kept my skin so cool and prevented those spots from getting darker. Try it, it is simple and totally safe!
This is very common and is called melasma. Make sure you use a safe mineral sunscreen daily even when you are indoors, as UV rays can worsen it. Avoid any strong chemical peel treatments right now; simple hydration is key.
I literally panicked thinking these dark spots on my nose would stay forever on my face! But my doctor reassured me that it is completely normal and called pregnancy mask. It slowly disappeared after my delivery, so don't stress about it.
Arey, pregnancy hormones ki wajah se pigmentation bohot common hai, haan. Bas dhoop mein bina sunscreen ke mat nikalna aur chehre par thoda dahi aur besan ka pack lagao, natural hai na toh koi side effect nahi hoga.
When I started getting dark patches on my cheeks, I felt so ugly and actually cried in front of the mirror. But please remember, it is just melasma and it naturally fades away post-delivery. Don't let it steal your pregnancy glow.
