Good afternoon,

I hope you’re all well.

I developed spots a few weeks back across my head. It’s now been four weeks and they have left marks, I think they are known as ‘dark spots’. I’ve never had this problem and I’m really worried they will be there for the rest of my life. I’m really self conscious about it all. What’s the best treatment or over the counter cream to make them fade please?

Thank you,

Dear Joey,

Thank you for your question. Can you describe or post a photo of these spots please?

Best wishes,

Good evening,

Apologies for the delay. I’ve only just seen this. I really appreciate you getting back to me.

Please find attached a photo. I have only just noticed myself, but it looks like I am developing a darker mark on my head too? I’ve never had problems with skin before and I’m 31.

Thank you and I really appreciate you helping me.

Joey

Good morning guys!

I’m so sorry to be a pain, but has anyone had a chance to look at my response please?

Again, I’m sorry to ask but as you can imagine, this is driving me mad!

Thank you,

Joey
