Precautions for Lemon-Based Treatments
Before using lemon on your skin, perform a patch test to check for sensitivity. Lemon juice can make your skin more vulnerable to sunburn, so applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen is essential. Limit usage to a few times per week to avoid over-drying or irritation caused by its acidic nature. Following these precautions can maximize benefits while minimizing risks.
When to Seek Professional Help
While lemon treatments can be effective for mild discoloration, results vary depending on your skin type and the severity of the spots. For stubborn age spots or if you experience irritation, consult a dermatologist. They can recommend advanced treatments or products tailored to your needs, ensuring safe and effective care for long-term skin health.
