How to treat facial spots in children aged 8 to 9 years old?
Disease description:
My child is currently 8 and a half years old and has developed some spots on the face resembling freckles. I would like to ask how this condition should be treated.

Facial spots in children aged 8-9 may be caused by ultraviolet radiation, melasma, freckles, etc., and can be managed through supplementation with trace elements, medication, or physical therapies.
1. Supplementation with trace elements: Facial spots in children aged 8-9 may result from exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays. Prolonged UV exposure can lead to melanin deposition in the skin, causing spots on the face. Under a doctor's guidance, patients may take oral vitamin C or vitamin E to alleviate the condition. Additionally, protective measures should be taken when outdoors, and prolonged exposure to UV radiation should be avoided.
2. Medication therapy: Facial spots in 8-9-year-old children may be caused by melasma, which typically presents as yellowish-brown or dark brown patches on the skin. Patients should visit a hospital for medical evaluation and, under a doctor's supervision, may use medications such as tranexamic acid or tretinoin cream. In daily life, patients are advised to consume more vegetables and fruits and avoid spicy or greasy foods.
3. Physical therapy: Facial spots in children aged 8-9 may be due to freckles, which typically manifest as pigmented spots. Patients should seek timely treatment at a hospital and, under medical supervision, may consider laser therapy.
