Dark spots on the cheekbones look darker as the weather gets chilly
As the weather gets colder and drier, the light freckles and blemishes on my cheekbones are particularly noticeable. I was very diligent about applying sunscreen during the summer, but I let my guard down a bit as autumn arrived, and it seems they have become more prominent. Even when I try to cover them with makeup, they start to look uneven and show through by the afternoon, which is really stressing me out.
I am organizing my questions for a dermatology consultation, so I would appreciate some advice from those with experience!

- 03CommentsEven for a small brown area next to the nose, it is difficult to distinguish between a mole, freckle, or other pigmentation based solely on a photo, so please get a medical examination first. Providing information on when the spots increased, previous photos, and the products you used will be helpful for the consultation. For areas prone to redness, it would be beneficial to check not only the type of pigmentation but also the current state of irritation, and to receive guidance on criteria for postponing laser treatments and moisturizing methods.840026.11.02
