Source: Clipart Korea
Did you all go on vacation this summer? The sun was so strong this summer that I'm even more concerned about freckles and blemishes now that I'm back from vacation ใ ใ ใ
As the freckles get darker, the stress gets worseโฆ
They say that if freckles are left untreated, the skin can become blotchy, so it is best to take care of them quickly!
So today, I'm going to summarize how to get rid of freckles! I'll share the causes, treatments, and even prevention methods.
1. Causes of freckles
It is said that freckles can appear due to various causes.
1) UV exposure
First, one common cause is exposure to ultraviolet rays. UV rays are known to increase melanin production. Therefore, prolonged exposure to UV rays increases the production of melanin, worsening pigmentation.
2) Hormonal changes
Hormonal changes are also identified as a cause of melasma. According to medical information from Seoul National University Hospital, melasma often appears after pregnancy or taking oral contraceptives.
3) Aging
In addition, as we age, the distribution of melanin in our skin can become unbalanced, which can lead to more severe pigmentation.
2. Treatment of freckles
If you are stressed because of freckles, one way to get rid of them is to seek professional help for freckle treatment.
1) Pico toning
To treat freckles, you might consider pico toning laser treatment. Pico toning uses picoseconds to break down pigment particles into tiny particles, helping to alleviate freckles and pigmentation.

3. How to prevent freckles
While getting rid of freckles is important, preventing them on a daily basis is just as important! To prevent freckles, it's crucial to practice the following habits.
1) Use sunscreen
Because we are exposed to UV rays all year round, it is important to develop the habit of thoroughly applying sunscreen 30 minutes before going outside.

2) Avoid strong UV rays during times of day
It is recommended to avoid going out between 10 AM and 2 PM because UV rays are strongest during this time!
3) Eat fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C.
Also, please note that eating fruits and vegetables that are rich in vitamin C, which can suppress melanin production, can help prevent freckles.
4) Using a freckle management ampoule
I found a great product for freckle care! Meladuce Brightening Ampoule contains ingredients from hospital procedures, and is said to help with freckle and melanin care. :) Using the ampoule consistently seems to help improve and prevent freckles.
