Alternative Treatment for Dark Patches on Face

First you need to rule out a tan — if you have been out in the sun a lot in the last few weeks, this might be the cause, particularly if the patches are symmetrical. The reason why there is not a full tan may be that you were wearing sunglasses. This is a common reason for people to develop an uneven tan that can seem like dark patches on both sides of the face.

If you have ruled this out, there are still a number of other possibilities, ranging from minor skin conditions and symptoms of minor diseases to symptoms of rather serious disorders. Age spots are one possible problem that is entirely harmless. If this is the case, avoiding exposure to the sun and applying lemon juice daily will help, although results might take a few months. The patches could also be due to a minor fungal infection, so you can try applying vinegar for a few days. If you suffer from type 2 diabetes, another possibility is what is known as insulin spillover. Insulin resistance sometimes results in a spillover into the skin, causing hyper pigmentation. This will of course require treatment of the underlying condition, diabetes, to get rid of the dark patches.
