Are you struggling with unattractive brown marks on your face? If so, you’re not alone because this is quite a common problem. Ashley has a patch of brown spots on her forehead and she remembers seeing similar marks on her mom’s and her grandparents’ faces when she was little. Back then, they used to call them ‘liver spots’, although the professional term is actually hyperpigmentation.
