So it is necessary for everyone to understand the symptoms of melasma. So what are the symptoms of melasma?

What are the symptoms of melasma?

1. Course of disease: The course of melasma develops relatively slowly, and it is generally difficult to determine the course of disease. For some patients, the course of disease may last for months or even years. Usually patients have no symptoms.

2. Boundaries: Most of the lesions of melasma have clear boundaries. When the pigmentation is less, the edges are not very clear but are diffusely distributed. There are no scales or infiltration on the surface of melasma, and it is generally not accompanied by other skin diseases such as erythema, papules, etc.

3. Shape: Chloasma varies in size and number. It can form arcuate or multi-ring lesions, distributed in linear or comet-like patterns, and occur symmetrically on the face.

4. Color: Color is a part of the symptoms of melasma. Chloasma usually appears in light brown, gray, or brown-gray colors. In severe cases, chloasma appears as brown-black or even dark blue-gray macules that merge into flaky pigmented spots.

5. Manifestations: Symptoms of chloasma. Chloasma lesions are usually limited to exposed areas of the skin and are distributed on the face, mainly on the cheeks, nose, forehead, and chin, and may occasionally be accompanied by pigmentation of the areola.

How to treat melasma

1. Diet therapy:

Proper food combination can be beneficial to many diseases and various spots. The following are more effective in treating chloasma: mung bean and lily whitening soup, lemon and rock sugar juice, milk and walnut drink, etc.

2. Massage:

The specific operation method is: massage the Foot-Taiyang Bladder Meridian, ascending from the outside of the heel, and stimulating from top to bottom 5 times; press the outer bundle bone point of the little toe with the index finger, once per second, for a total of 5 to 10 times; push and rub the Du meridian on the midline of the back and waist from top to bottom 5 times, using the dorsal vertebrae as the midline, and use the palm of your hand to push and rub to the left and right sides for more than 10 times.

3. Laser:

Laser is currently the most effective method for treating chloasma. It uses laser irradiation to make the pigmented cell particles absorb laser light of a specific wavelength, and be broken up and decomposed by it. Finally, the pigmented cell particles are excreted from the body with normal metabolism, achieving the effect of removing chloasma from the source.

I believe that through the introduction of the article, everyone should have a better understanding of the symptoms of chloasma. I hope that these symptoms can help everyone discover the presence of chloasma in the first place. I also recommend that everyone must actively go to a regular hospital for treatment to avoid missing the best treatment time.
