Sunspots on Bald Heads? Causes, Risks, and a Routine to Prevent Them

Dude, those spots you're starting to see on your bald head aren't freckles or medals for standing on the beach without a hat. They're sun damage.

The good news is that you can stop them (and improve the appearance of your scalp) with two allies : Dr. Bald's Invisible Sunscreen and its Moisturizing After Sun Lotion .

But before that...

WHY DO SPOTS APPEAR ON BALD HEADS?

Because the bald area is fully exposed to the sun , and the scalp skin is thin and receives direct radiation without the natural "umbrella" of the hair.

Over the years, UVA and UVB rays trigger an uncontrolled production of melanin → brown spots appear , lighter areas, rough texture… and, in more serious cases, precancerous lesions .

TYPES OF STAINS

types of skin blemishes
  • Solar lentigines (or “age spots”) : flat, brown, well-defined. Pure accumulated sun damage.

  • Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation : if you have burned, scratched or irritated yourself, a darker area may remain.

  • Hypopigmentation : lighter areas after burns.

THE CHECKLIST FOR PREVENTING THEM

  • High SPF (ideally 50+) every day of the year (because your baldness doesn't understand seasons)

  • Reapply if there is direct sunlight, sweat, or water.

  • Repairing after-sun lotion for intense sun exposure. Soothes, hydrates, and helps restore the skin barrier.

And if you still don't know who to turn to... we'll give you a hint:


Your baldness can reveal your age… or how well you take care of yourself . If you want it to be the latter, equip yourself with the essential duo.

Protect today. Avoid stains (and scares) tomorrow.
