Hi I'm an asian girl with a lot of freckles on my nose and cheeckbones. I really need to get rid of these freckles ASAP. It's really ugly looking especially on my nose. What are some things I can do to get rid of these freckles?

Nothing, really. You can use a concealing foundation. I am caucasian and have lived with freckles my entire (long) life.

Can you get a prescription retinoid such as retin-a? That will help fade them a lot. The dermatologist can also prescribe hydroquinone which may fade the freckles as well.

I was thinking of using at home remedies. I read using lemons is a good way of getting rid of freckles.

Jan Brady tried that and it didn't work.

Just try getting a prescription lightener from a dermatologist or use a concealer.
