Home Remedies for Dark Spots

You have not mentioned your age, sex, or any other factors that would help determine the cause or nature of these dark spots, so it is difficult to provide any solution. There are a large number of ailments that can result in dark spots on the skin, so if the problem is particularly severe or if you have other accompanying symptoms, it will probably be a good idea for you to visit a doctor and get the underlying problem itself diagnosed. Without this, it is unlikely that you will be able to get rid of the spots, either temporarily or permanently.

The most common cause of dark spots on the face however is pimples — these spots may simply be scars that are the remnants of an acne problem that you once had. If this is the case, you can use some simple home remedies and over the counter lightening products to lighten these spots a bit, but you will need to be very patient. Scars will not disappear overnight, and can take months and years to completely go away. As for as home remedies go, you can apply a paste of lemon juice and sandalwood powder daily, and also rub slices of raw potato on your skin for around 5 minutes every day.

Normally dark spots are the marks left behind due to acne, blackheads or whiteheads. For prevention you have to treat these problems first.
For removing dark spots we have good home remedies –
  • Smashed potato mask on face helps. Rinse with warm water after 10-15 minutes. Apply at least twice a week.
  • Oatmeal, white and red sandalwood mixed in milk and rose water is beneficial. Apply the mixture on face. Rinse after it dried. Apply at least 3 times a week.
  • Grated tomato and lemon juice is very nice. Apply it on face and keep it for 20-25 minutes. Do this twice a day.
