How Can Persistent Chin Area Black Patches Be Treated?
Hi doctor, I am 32 years old, from the last 6 months i feel lots of black patches on my chin area, it becomes black now. I had used Amway products, but no relief, now I consult a good dermalogist of
sir Gangaram Hospital. He has advised me to take some supliments like minoz-OD 100 Gr., Biotin Vitamin C and Antoxia, Atarex and Fash Cleasing Erytop and Retino. I am using these medicines from the last 3 weeks, but I feal my patches becomes more darker than earlier. I am very much worried. Should I contact Kaya Skin clinic or continue with the same medicines. Please help me

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have persistent black patches on chin area which are result of extra sebum produced by sebaceous glands and clogged pores due to climatic and environmental condition. When the pores become clogged the sebum produced by sebaceous glands collects inside and results into black patches. Need not to worry. I would suggest you use mild scrub and gently massage your skin this will perform the function of cleansing and exfoliation ,apply benzoyl peroxide on face to make it bacteria free and oil free. You should use steam on your face to soften the pores of your skin, and avoid use of heavy makeup and sunscreen products. Keep your face free from dust ,wash your face with mild face wash twice daily and cover your face while going outside. If condition still persists then consult dermatologist and start treatment after proper prescription.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
