Organic Virgin Coconut Oil

Coconut oil has become popular for its many holistic remedies, including removing spots from actinic keratosis from the face, forehead, nose, scalp, and neck. A small amount can be applied directly on the area once daily, and although it may take up to a month to see results, the coconut oil should eventually work to lighten the spots. Take note it may initially create a burning sensation and turn the spots red.

Apple Cider Vinegar

Apple cider vinegar can be used both topically and by consumption at the same time. To rid the skin of its dry, sloughing state, dab the affected area with a cotton ball dipped in apple cider vinegar and cover with a bandage. Some use regular bottled varieties, while others use unpasteurized. It may feel unpleasant at first, but consistent use may pay off. Drinking water mixed with apple cider vinegar and half a teaspoon of honey is also an option.
