A good way to remove blemishes that appear on the face during pregnancy can be done by using a homemade mask prepared with tomatoes and yogurt, as these ingredients contain substances that naturally lighten the skin. Additionally, you can also spray your face daily with lemon and cucumber juice or a milk and turmeric solution.
Dark spots on the skin during pregnancy appear due to hormonal changes and may be associated with exposure to the sun without sunscreen. They usually appear after 25 weeks of gestation and can remain for months, even after the baby is born, which is why it is important to prevent them from becoming even darker.

These home remedies help lighten skin blemishes and can be done daily, but it is very important to use sunscreen every day with at least SPF 15 and avoid sun exposure between 10 am and 4 pm, wearing a hat or cap and always wearing sunscreen to avoid making the spots worse.
Furthermore, a good way to reduce the color of blemishes is by gently exfoliating your face, which can be done about twice a week.
