Strawberry legs are dark pores or dots on the skin, often caused by clogged follicles or shaving irritation, giving the legs a spotted appearance.
Strawberry legs refer to the small, dark spots that appear on the legs due to clogged hair follicles, ingrown hairs, dry skin, or shaving with a dull razor. These dark pores resemble the seeds on the surface of a strawberry, hence the name.
They are common and not harmful but can be a cosmetic concern for many people. Individuals with coarse body hair, dry or sensitive skin, or improper shaving techniques are more prone to this condition.
Causes include:
• Clogged or enlarged hair follicles
• Shaving with dull razors
• Dry or rough skin
• Lack of exfoliation
