陈实功曰∶女子面生黧黑斑，此乃水亏不能制火，血弱不能华肉，以致火烁结
成黑斑，色枯不泽。妇人生此，不利于夫主。又疑事不决者，多有之。治当朝以肾
气丸以滋化源，早晚玉容丸洗擦自退。当戒忧思、动火劳伤等事。（《正宗》）
古一人登厕，被臭气熏触，隐忍良久，明日满面皆黑色，月余不散。相士云∶不
出月必死。一良医令以沉、檀香各一两，锉碎安炉中烧熏帐内，以被盖定，令病者瞑
目端坐，候香尽方可出帐门，日引鉴照之，面上黑色渐散矣。盖臭腐属水，香属土，土胜水也。
验方
白僵蚕 黑牵牛（各二两） 北细辛（二两）
研细蜜丸弹子大，日洗数次。一月后其斑自退，并治雀斑面生黑点。神效。

《心法》曰∶痣，乃孙络之血滞于卫分，阳气束结所致。
Chen Shigong stated: When women develop dark black spots on the face, it is due to Kidney Water deficiency failing to control Fire, and Blood weakness failing to nourish flesh. This results in Fire scorching and condensing into black spots with a withered and lusterless appearance. Women suffering from this condition may face misfortune for their husbands. It is also observed that those who harbor doubts and cannot make decisions often develop such spots. Treatment should involve taking Shenqi Wan (Kidney Qi Pill) in the morning to nourish the source of transformation, and washing/rubbing the face morning and evening with Yurong Wan (Jade Face Pill) until the spots naturally fade. One must abstain from excessive worry, thinking, fire-activating activities, and overexertion. (*Waike Zhengzong*)
In ancient times, a man entered a latrine and was exposed to foul odors, enduring it for a long time. The next day, his entire face turned black, and the discoloration persisted for over a month. A physiognomist predicted he would die within the month. A skilled physician instructed him to take one liang each of Chenxiang (Aquilaria Lignum / Agarwood) and Tanxiang (Santalum Album Lignum / Sandalwood), crush them, place them in a censer to burn inside a tent, cover tightly with blankets, and have the patient sit upright with eyes closed. Only after the incense was consumed could he exit the tent. He was advised to check his reflection in a mirror daily, and the blackness on his face gradually dispersed. This is because foul/rotten smells belong to Water, while fragrant aromas belong to Earth; thus, Earth overcomes Water.

Chen Shigong stated: Moles are named "Heizi" (Black Seeds). They result from turbid Qi in the Kidney mixing and stagnating in the Yang aspect. Yang Qi constricts and binds, forming hard, persistent black seeds. Generally, having moles is considered inauspicious. If located on the face and affecting appearance, they should be removed. (*Waike Zhengzong*)
He further stated: Applying Bingsi San (Ice Snail Powder) will cause them to fall off naturally.
*Yizong Jinjian: Waike Xinfa Yaojue* states: Moles are caused by blood stasis in the Sunluo (branch collaterals) stagnating in the Wei (Defensive) division, resulting from constriction and binding by Yang Qi.
