Hi
Have attached pictures of the large brown patch on side of my face.
The main part (bit like a Nike tick from my ear and curving up the face) has been there well over 10 years now, but in the past year or so more of the face has got this tea-stain colour.
For the main part of it is not really a problem, only shows when clean shaven and most of the time stubble covers it as only shave once a week.
Really wanting to get rid of the splotchy brown mark more towards my cheek/nose, and if it works on that then maybe I can get rid of the whole lot.
So the point of this post is can someone who has seen this before/dealt with before/knows someone who has etc give me some advice on what you know may work.
I've tried couple of bleaching creams, can't remember first ones name or ingredients, last one tried was Surewhite with kojic acid as main ingredient.
Also tried lemon and cider vinegar both neat and in mask form.
I've been on obagi now for almost a year, had a bluepeel as well. My skin now looks 10 years younger but the brown marks are still there.
Did obagi to get rid of brown mark, kept them but got younger looking skin. So I'm happy and unhappy, hahah.
It is faded though, see the pics. The first 2 on here are from last year, then the last one is a photo from today just now.
I'm posting asking for advice instead of searching the forums as I've been on the boards almost 2 hours now and have read a books worth of posts. Plus a lot of them seem to deal with people with darker skin types so hoping if I shout out some people might be able to advise me on what could help my skin type.
Guess I'm just hoping to get some info from those who have seen these sorts of marks before and know what to use. And then I can do what they recommend.
Should I stick with the obagi or try something new?
Thanks in advance to any who can help
