Causes of freckles and dietary treatment of freckles

Freckles are most common on women's faces, where they are densely packed and affect their appearance. For women with freckles, one of the topics they care about most is how to remove them.

Causes of freckles

(1) Freckles are inherited genes. Hereditary freckles are divided into dominant and recessive freckles. Dominant freckles begin to appear around the age of 6 to 12 and reach their peak around the age of 18. Most of the hidden spots appear on the face after pregnancy reactions.

(2) Freckles can also be passed down from one generation to the next, which is one of the reasons why some parents do not have freckles but their children have freckles.

(3) Endocrine disorders in pregnant women. After pregnancy, the endocrine system of pregnant women will undergo great changes, which will stimulate hidden freckles to break out.

(4) Emotional instability causes freckles, and the formation of freckles is also closely related to endocrine disorders. For example, bad emotions or feelings, coupled with blood loss caused by monthly menstruation, can easily cause endocrine disorders. Insomnia, irregular diet, and fatigue in life can also cause endocrine disorders.

(5) Frequent exposure to strong sunlight and ultraviolet rays not only accelerates skin aging, but also causes the occurrence of pigmentation such as dark spots and freckles.

(6) Bad cleaning habits can also lead to the formation of freckles. Such as excessive cleaning habits and not paying attention to skin moisturizing.
