Source: Clipart Korea
Many people search for ways to remove facial blemishes because of the brown spots that appear one by one around their cheekbones or cheeks every time they look in the mirror. However, even if they look similar on the surface, the causes of pigmentation and the depth of the skin can differ. Therefore, rather than blindly using the same method to remove them, it is important to assess the exact condition and choose the appropriate care method.
Today, I will summarize everything from the reasons why facial blemishes form, to dermatological procedures for removing them, and home care methods you can do at home.
1. Reasons why facial blemishes form
1) Repeated exposure to ultraviolet rays
One of the most common causes of facial blemishes forming or darkening is ultraviolet rays. It is said that exposure to UV rays activates melanocytes and increases the production of melanin pigment, which can lead to the formation of blemishes.
2) Hormonal changes
In the case of melasma, changes in female hormones can also have an impact. It is said that hormonal shifts caused by factors such as pregnancy or the use of oral contraceptives can lead to the development of new melasma or cause existing spots to darken.
3) Skin inflammation such as acne/dermatitis
There are cases where brown marks remain in areas where acne has been squeezed or where dermatitis has recurred. This is called post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. It is said that inflammation or physical irritation to the skin increases melanin production, causing pigmentation to remain even after the inflammation subsides.
4) Repeated skin irritation
It is said that excessively frequent strong scrubbing or peeling, or repeatedly rubbing the skin, can also make pigmentation darker.
2. Dermatological procedure for removing facial blemishes
When visiting a dermatologist to remove facial blemishes, the treatment method is selected after assessing the type and depth of the pigmentation, skin tone, and extent of the affected area. The dermatological procedures for removing facial blemishes are said to be as follows.
1) Pico Toning

3. Home care methods to help remove facial blemishes
It is said that even if you undergo dermatological procedures to remove facial blemishes, pigmentation can darken again if you do not properly protect yourself from UV rays or take care of your skin in your daily life. Therefore, it is important to also engage in consistent home care.
1) Use sunscreen every day
The most basic aspect of managing blemishes is UV protection. You should apply sunscreen thoroughly throughout all four seasons, and it is recommended to reapply it periodically if you spend a long time outdoors.

3) Do not rub your face excessively
It is said that it is best to avoid repeatedly using strong scrubs or peels just because you are concerned about blemishes, as this can irritate the skin, cause inflammation, and darken pigmentation.
4. Q&A
1) Can facial blemishes be removed with just one laser treatment?
It depends on the type and depth of the pigmentation. Pigments located on the skin surface may show relatively rapid changes, but melasma or deep pigmentation may require multiple treatments and consistent care.
2) Can blemishes reappear even after removal?
It can reappear. In particular, repeated exposure to ultraviolet rays can cause existing pigmentation to darken again or new pigmentation to form. Therefore, it is important to consistently use sunscreen even after dermatological procedures.
