I'm worried about these xanthelasma spots around my eye. I've read that garlic juice could help naturally, but I'm not sure if that's true or safe. Can you give me some advice on treating this at home?

I'm dealing with some black patches around my chin, right below my mouth, and near my nose and lips. They sometimes peel off, leaving dry skin, but right now they're just dark spots. I was told by a dermatologist a year ago that it might be seborrheic melanosis, but the treatment she suggested didn't work, and she mentioned it can't be treated permanently. It had lightened up a bit, but now it's dark again. Is there any way to treat this permanently?

this needs physical examination and appropriate approach,visit dermatologist for the same, do not try to squeeze it or scratch it
