From an Ayurvedic perspective, the increasing darkening and hyperpigmentation of your face, neck, joints, and areas around the mouth and forehead suggest an imbalance of the Pitta and Vata doshas, along with possible toxin accumulation (Ama) in the body. This could be related to internal factors like poor digestion, hormonal imbalances, or improper elimination of toxins, even if you are not exposed to the sun regularly. To address this, I recommend incorporating a Pitta-pacifying diet that avoids spicy, sour, and fermented foods, focusing instead on cooling, nourishing options like fresh fruits, vegetables, and coconut water. Regular detoxification using Ayurvedic herbs like Triphala can help cleanse the system and improve skin health. Topically, applying a paste made from sandalwood, turmeric, and Aloe vera gel can help soothe and lighten the affected areas. Abhyanga (self-massage) with oils like Kumkumadi Taila or coconut oil can enhance circulation and promote a brighter complexion. Additionally, practicing Pranayama and yoga poses that enhance blood flow to the skin, along with reducing stress, will further support your body’s natural healing processes. It's advisable to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized guidance, including internal herbal remedies to balance doshas and improve overall skin tone.

It sounds like you're experiencing hyperpigmentation and possibly an imbalance in your Pitta or Vata dosha, often leading to skin issues. Ayurveda looks at skin problems as signs of imbalances within the body. With fair skin tone, it can become more noticeable, especially around sensitive areas like the mouth and forehead. While it seems puzzling, mind your diet and lifestyle as these play a big role.
First things first, let's cut down on foods that increase Pitta – spicy, fried stuff, and too much citrus. You could try more cooling foods like cucumber, watermelon, and coconut water. Including herbs like turmeric or amla can also help detox and rejuvenate your skin.
Also, drinking plenty of water helps flush out toxins. A glass of warm water with a dash of lemon in the morning works wonders for digestion, which is crucial for clear skin. You might want to check if your digestive fire, or agni, is strong. If not, it can cause toxins, called ama, to accumulate.
For external care, consider using a paste of sandalwood and rose water on the affected areas. Leave it for about 15-20 mins and rinse gently. Sandalwood has been known for its soothing properties to balance the heat in skin.
Increasing your intake of Vit C can aid in skin repair, and try to manage stress through yoga or meditation. Stress can worsen skin conditions by upsetting your internal balance, gotta keep it in check. Sleep well too, 'cause your skin repairs itself overnight.
If there's no improvement, visiting a practitioner for a personalized treatment plan may be the best approach, they might suggest treatments like Panchakarma. If symptoms worsen or seems persistent despite trying these, it’s a good idea to consult with someone.
Stay patient, cos skin routines take time to show results and keep persistent! Finding balance is key, above all.
