The causes of chloasma in men

We all know that women are prone to chloasma on their faces, but few people know that chloasma can also occur on men's faces. In fact, the main reason why men get chloasma is due to imbalance in the liver, spleen and kidneys, which causes estrogen to lose its original regularity. Therefore, if a man gets chloasma on his face, the main thing to do is to replenish his spirit, dredge the liver's meridians, and pay attention to his diet to restore estrogen and testosterone to a relative balance, and the chloasma will naturally disappear.

Reasons why men develop chloasma:

1. Liver depression and qi stagnation

If the liver is not functioning properly and blood circulation is not smooth, the facial qi and blood will become unbalanced and stagnate into blood stasis. Soothing the liver and regulating qi, activating blood circulation and removing spots.

2. Overwork and injury to the spleen and earth

Overwork damages the spleen and earth, leading to dysfunction of the spleen and stomach, disorders in the distribution and metabolism of body fluids, malnutrition of the facial skin, and the formation of spots over time. Strengthen the spleen and warm the yang, and harmonize the qi and blood of the face.

3. Insufficient Kidney Yin

It is caused by the inability of kidney water to nourish and moisturize the skin. It nourishes yin, replenishes kidney, replenishes qi and activates blood circulation.
