I hate my freckles. I have freckles on my arms and have had people comment on them. I want to get rid of them no matter how much it costs - is this possible, and if so, how?
Why? Cause I look ugly. I know I'm being vain here but I don't care. I'm a natural redhead and have had freckles since I was a kid. I got teased a lot then, and just yesterday an asian girl said 'What's wrong with your skin?' and I told her it's my freckles. Another person once said he wants to try and play 'join the dots' and someone else said 'Wow I never realised how many freckles you have.' The only tanning I've ever done is fake tanning and even that is mainly to cover them up. I'll stay at a new boyfriend's house and in the morning when my makeup is gone they will comment on it too. It's annoying so I'm going to get rid of them - cause people are so mean!
If I were you I wouldn't be trying to assuage stupid people ie 'What's wrong with your skin?' The only people worth bothering with are the people who like you for you. That said I know it's easier said in principle rather than practice to be less vain. People will take any opportunity to put you down, to point out any imperfections, usually in all cases in my experience they were hardly all that themselves. I personally like girls with freckles, preferable to society's bland idealised version of beauty. But well, I guess the stupid person's opinion takes precedence over mine or bimjob's :)
Do you sunbake a lot? most spots on the upper arms are results of prolong sunbaking which looks like freckles or mini moles.
Make an appoinment with a dermatologist as they would be the best people to give you proper and helpful medical advice... They may even suggest if surgery is needed or whether lasar or chemical peel treatments would be the go for your unwanted freckles.
The cheapest alternative if your freckles are not that extreme, is to purchase a SPF 30 plus bronzer which can be used as a sunscreen and a body "foundation" to cover the freckles.
It doesnt always work and sometimes makes you smell a bit sickly, but if you rub lemon juice directly onto the freckles twice a day, after a couple of months they wont disappear but they'll be slightly less visible. I used it on a rather annoying bunch which spread from my forhead down my nose and across my cheeks in an upside down T shape, I used the method and after about 3 months and a lot of money spent on lemons it started to work :) but it stopped after a while. cant hurt to try thouuu :D hope this helped!x
hey im kind of late to answer. I had freckles too when I was younger but they dissapeared when I got older and didnt tan so many times. I get them now only on summer holiday but in winter they dissapear totally. I really dont mind them anymore. and you are a girl so it looks even cute. everybody got something special bout themselves some got freckles and read hair(irish type) some got small eyes(asian).So its just defines you as a type.
A dermatologist can bleach them to fade them away, but ??? why? Is it a gal thing - or a generational thing? At least to me, all your pictures look fantastic. If anything, I think they give you an extra touch of character... an extra helping of 'interesting'. (There also may be over the counter remedies for fading your freckles.)
In any event, take care and Good Luck!!
don't do it! Freckles are adorable! Two of the 3 girls I've had strong feelings for in my life had freckles. They're really pretty, and all women who supposedly look 'perfect' are actually rather bland and thus unattractive to me.
I think you cod try surgery but ther may b some risks the lemon idea sounds like a good one to try try tslkin to your doctor 4 options you cod take! hope this helps! x :]
I have frekles all over me no 1 ever comments on them so just leave them b :)
