Dr. Gan Liqiang
Facial pigmentation spots can be treated using the following methods:
1. For mild or faint spots, topical medications—such as tretinoin or hydroquinone cream—may be effective.
2. For more stubborn or persistent hyperpigmentation, aesthetic medical treatments—including chemical peels, laser therapy, and intense pulsed light (IPL)—can be employed.
The development of pigmentation spots is closely linked to prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation in daily life. Therefore, consistent and proper sun protection measures are strongly recommended to help prevent the formation of such spots.
