Sun Spot Removal
Sun spots are also known as age spots , liver spots, lentigos, or lentigines. Sun spots are associated with additive sun exposure. Sun spots, age spots, and unslimly veins can usually be treated in just one session. As people age, sun spots most naturally forms on the backs of the hands, the forearms, neck, chest, and face. Age spots increase with age and exposure to sun. They are more common in people who freckle and who burn easily. Ephelides occur even in children after short periods of sun exposure.
Both kinds of pigmented spots only occassionally occur in non sun exposed areas. Sun voidance and the use of good sun screen protection can help lessen the appearance of both lentigines and stipples. Liver spots varies from freckles. Liver spots are due to “ceroid” pigment build up in the skin of older people. Sun spots are harmless and do not need to be medicated from a health standpoint unless they are changing in shape and color, or are getting bigger than the surrounding sun spots.

Laser resurfacing usually reduces most age spots, age related discoloration, and wrinkles, often in just one treatment.
