Can applying Sanqi powder and honey on the face remove spots

Applying Sanqi powder and honey to the face generally cannot remove spots. The formation of pigmentation is related to factors such as melanin deposition, skin aging, and ultraviolet radiation. External application mixtures are difficult to penetrate deep into the skin and exert their effects. Sanqi powder has the function of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, while honey contains antioxidant components. The combination of the two may temporarily improve local blood circulation or provide slight moisturizing effect when applied externally, but it cannot decompose the formed melanin or block the pathway of melanin production. The pathological basis of pigmentation lies in the hyperfunction of melanocytes in the basal layer of the epidermis, and external application ingredients usually cannot reach this depth. Some people may experience a brief brightening of the skin after applying it, mainly due to an increase in the hydration of the stratum corneum, rather than a true freckle removing effect. A clinically effective freckle removal method requires targeted intervention in the melanin metabolism process. Patients with melasma can use hydroquinone cream to inhibit tyrosinase activity and take tranexamic acid tablets orally to reduce vascular proliferation; Freckles can choose Q-switched laser to selectively destroy melanin particles; Post inflammatory pigmentation requires the use of compound glycyrrhizin tablets to control the inflammatory response. Strict sun protection is necessary in daily life, as ultraviolet rays can continuously stimulate melanin synthesis. The metabolic cycle of the skin is about 28 days, and any freckle removal method needs to be persisted for a certain period of time to take effect.

It is recommended to first go to the dermatology department for Wood Lamp testing to determine the type of pigmentation before selecting a targeted treatment plan. Self use of folk remedies may delay the timing of treatment, and some ingredients may also cause contact dermatitis. It is recommended to use skincare products containing vitamin C derivatives, niacinamide, and other ingredients for daily care, combined with physical sun protection measures, to avoid factors such as staying up late and endocrine disorders that worsen pigmentation.
