Ever since my pregnancy last year, I’ve noticed slowly darkening brown patches across my cheeks and the bridge of my nose. They started faint but have gradually become more noticeable, especially when I’m out in the sun. Some mornings, the patches look a bit darker than others, and it makes me self-conscious when I’m getting ready for the day. I just want my skin to feel like “me” again.
Do the patches get darker with sun exposure, even with brief outdoor time?
