What Causes Dark Spots on Men’s Faces - And How to Get Rid of Them Naturally?
Share
Dark spots on the face, also known as hyperpigmentation, are a very common skin issue seen among men of all ages. While they might not seem especially appealing to have on our faces (or anywhere else on our bodies, really), in reality, our skin will most likely need restoration from time to time, whether from sun damage, acne scarring, or shaving irritation; and these unwanted marks not only impact our faces, but also our confidence too.
We know mens skincare at Cariglow, and we can guide you on how best to achieve a clearer and even better complexion with natural and effective methods. In this article, we will have a look at why your face develops those dark spots and how to naturally get rid of them, including the best dark spot remover for men’s face.
What Are the Causes of Dark Spots on Men’s Face?
Sun Exposure
Sunspots are dark patches that appear on the skin after years of unprotected sun exposure due to the melanin being stimulated by the ultraviolet (UV) rays.
Post-Acne Marks
When acne clears, however, many men are left with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation—an effect of inflammation damaging the pigment-producing cells in the skin.
Shaving Irritation
Shaving on a regular basis could cause irritation of the skin, perhaps leading to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation via ingrown hairs, especially in men with medium to dark-ish skin.
Hormonal Imbalance or Aging
Men have unevenly pigmented skin due to its function to regulate melanin production, so excessive exposure to the sun, which is a major risk factor for skin cancer, causes an equable, age spots or blotchy skin tone.
How to Get Rid of Dark Spots Naturally?
There are harsh chemical treatments, but that usually causes skin irritation in men. On the other side, natural skincare is secure, mild, and long-lasting. Here’s what you can do:
1. Exfoliate Weekly
Removing dead skin cells helps get rid of the dry, crusty exterior & reveals the younger, smoother, healthier skin lying underneath. Instead, opt for a natural exfoliant e.g. walnut shell, oatmeal, fruit enzymes.
2. Apply A Natural Dark Spot Remover
To fade hyperpigmentation over time, apply a dark spot remover for face (look for plant-based brighteners like licorice root, vitamin C, kojic acid, or niacinamide) targeting only the dark spots on your skin.
Cariglow Men's Dark Spot Remover is designed with botanicals that fade dark spot but never irritate while treating sensitive or post-shave skin
3. Hydrate and Moisturize
Well hydrated skin is where the repairing starts! Go for an oil-free moisturizer for men with aloe vera, green tea, or squalane.
4. Always Apply Sunscreen
Yes, even for men! Existing spots are aggravated by UV exposure. Wear a daily broad-spectrum SPF 30+ (if active brightening ingredients are a part of your regimen).
