White patches under eyes

[Guest Posts]

Hi
I have olive skin and I’m 61 I am getting white patches under my eyes and a long patch coming down my face what can I use to control it? I use sun protection every day and in winter but not helping. When I wear foundation it does not look right.
Thank you Angela

Dear Angela,
I would recommend discussing this with your GP in the first place. There are a number of reasons why this may happen including the presence of cholesterol under the skin. Clinical examination will guide a discussion around treatment options.
Best wishes
