Age spots or freckles :  Age spots (lentigines) and freckles (ephelides) are commonly caused from sun exposure.  Both are also otherwise known as "pigmented spots."  Age spots can occur in all skin types, typically arising later in life.  Freckles usually occur in people with fair skin. There are several ways to treat each, including hydroquinone and Retin A.  However, hydroquinone is not suitable treatment for persons with darker skin. If you have darker skin, you should plan to use a treatment that contains Kojic acid.

At View Laser Skin Rejuvenation we utilize a combination of advanced aesthetic treatments.  Medique AHA peels, microdermabrasion,  IPL and 1540 fractional laser provide remarkable results.  An initial series of 4  IPL treatments are recommended.

Regular use of spf 45 sunscreen is critical to maintaining your rejuvenated appearence. Follow up treatment will be required depending on the degree of sun exposure.
