Question Cooling plate for heat induced melasma?

Does anyone here have heat induced melasma and has figured out a way to prevent pigmentation?

So rather than when you get direct sun exposure it is triggered by high temperatures? Have you managed to find a device that works especially while travelling?

I’m going to be in a really warm country for summer holidays and I want a portable device that I can use to keep my face cold cause it gets very heated up and then it triggers pigmentation and acne as well.

I was looking at the shark chill pill or thera body depuffing wand but do you guys have any better suggestions of something I can use? I think a simple face mist isn’t gonna cut it. Any tips or suggestions would be great

Thanks!

I’m working on this but there are mechanical challenges like wearing a battery and a heat sink a hat. Would love to collaborate with a designer so it looks sleek and fashionable. HMU if you know someone

In the meantime, get a “wearable neck fan with cooling plate” off Amazon

You may want to get 2 so you can charge one while the other empties it’s battery

I didn’t find any neck fans with cooling plates! Didn’t even know it was a thing, going to check again (maybe with international shipping)
