Dark spots on face
Hello,
I am facing the problem of dark spots rapidly increasing on face and cheeks. This started majorly after pregnancy but continuing to increase even after that. A dermatologist suggested a medicated sunscreen and a kojic acid cream to apply on spots during night. Though the shade has reduced a little, new spots are continuously emerging. Kindly suggest what else can be done.
