Dark spots, also known as "pigment spots", mostly occur on the face and are common in women. They are a "disease" that seriously affects people's appearance and makes people upset. Studies have shown that there are many causes of facial skin spots, which can be summarized into the following factors:

If people's facial skin is exposed to the sun for a long time, especially when it is directly exposed to ultraviolet rays without any cover, it is easy to cause pigmentation. After using inferior cosmetics, or using cosmetics that are inconsistent with their own skin properties for a long time, some people's skin will experience allergic reactions or inflammation, and it may also cause pigmentation and form dark spots.

Dark spots can be caused by a variety of reasons, including female endocrine (hormone) imbalance, digestive dysfunction (such as long-term constipation), liver dysfunction, excessive mental stress, severe lack of sleep, anemia, etc.

The causes of facial spots can be divided into two main types: internal and external. The internal causes are mainly caused by endocrine disorders, decreased adrenal sebum function, pigmentation, acid-base imbalance in the body, slow metabolism and other factors. Furthermore, liver and kidney dysfunction, poor hematopoietic function, excessive thyroid secretion, heredity, and reduced metabolic function of the body may all cause spots in middle-aged women.

External factors are also one of the main reasons why middle-aged women develop spots. For example, improper use of cosmetics causing cosmetic allergies, ultraviolet radiation, external stimuli and abrasions, etc. may cause middle-aged women to develop spots. Furthermore, eating too much photosensitive food is also one of the main causes of facial spots.
