Sebaceous keratosis and skin tags are common and often related to genetics, as you’ve noticed in your family. While these are benign and not harmful, addressing them through Ayurveda can provide some natural relief and support skin health. Here’s a holistic approach:

1. Dietary Modifications: In Ayurveda, skin issues often relate to imbalances in the body, particularly the doshas. Consuming a diet that balances Pitta dosha is advisable, as excessive heat and toxins might contribute to these conditions. Include cooling foods like cucumber, melon, and leafy greens. Avoid spicy, oily, and processed foods which might aggravated the condition.

2. Herbs and Spices: Certain herbs can support skin health. Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is renowned for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. You might consider taking turmeric with warm milk or water. Triphala, a blend of three fruits, can support digestive health and help in detoxifying your body. Its regualr use can smoothen skin over time.

3. External Application: Applying Aloe Vera gel directly on the spots can help soothe the skin and reduce the appearance of sebaceous keratosis over time. A paste made from Sandalwood and Rose water can also be applied, as it has cooling and healing properties beneficial for Pitta-related skin issues.

4. Lifestyle Adjustments: Stress management is crucial, as stress can exacerbate skin conditions. Practices like yoga, meditation, or Pranayama can promote overall harmony and reduce stress. Sleep is also essential, aim for 7-8 hours a night to facilitate natural skin repair.

5. Regular Cleansing: Cleansing your skin twice a day with herbal cleansers that contain ingredients like Neem or Tulsi can prevent excessive oil buildup, and protect the skin from impurities.

If you do not see improvement or if they cause discomfort, it’s better to consult with a dermatologist. Remember, Ayurvedic treatments take time and consistency is the key for natural remedies to show effects…

To address sebaceous keratosis (age spots) and skin tags from an Ayurvedic perspective, we need to consider balancing your doshas and strengthening the skin tissue, as these growths are often related to imbalances in the body’s systems. While it’s essential to recognize that these conditions are usually harmless, natural treatments can help manage them.

First, focus on your diet. A diet that pacifies the Pitta dosha might be beneficial. Include cooling foods such as cucumber, melon, and leafy greens. Avoid excessive spicy, oily, and fried foods that can aggravate Pitta. Staying well-hydrated is also crucial.

There are a few topical remedies you can try. Applying a paste made of turmeric and sandalwood powder on the affected areas can help reduce pigmentation and support skin health. Mix equal parts of the powders with a little water or rose water to form a paste, and apply it daily. Leave it on for about 20 minutes before washing off.

For ingestion, consider incorporating amla (Indian gooseberry) into your daily routine. Amla is rich in antioxidants and known for its ability to rejuvenate the skin. You can consume amla juice or powdered amla with warm water each morning.

Additionally, massage your skin with sesame oil or coconut oil. This practice can improve circulation and assist in the gentle shedding of dead skin cells. A gentle, circular motion is best, and you might do this two to three times a week.

However, if the growths are bothersome or change in appearance, it would be wise to consult a dermatologist for evaluation. Natural remedies can support overall skin health, though they may not entirely prevent the recurrence of such conditions if they’re genetically predisposed.
