Age Spots
Fade Your Age Spots and Restore an Even Complexion
Age spots are incredibly common, and with the right professional treatment, they can be significantly faded or eliminated for a dramatically clearer and more even complexion.
Age spots, also known as liver spots or solar lentigines, are flat, darkened patches that develop on areas of the skin that have received prolonged sun exposure over time. They are most common on the face, hands, chest, and shoulders, and they tend to multiply and deepen in color as UV exposure accumulates through the decades. Age spots are caused by an overproduction of melanin in the skin stimulated by UV radiation, and while they are completely harmless, they can significantly affect skin clarity and contribute to an aged overall appearance. They are among the most responsive pigmentation concerns to professional light-based and resurfacing treatments.

Any Questions?
Treated age spots that are fully cleared do not return to the same spot, but new spots can develop over time from continued sun exposure. Consistent daily SPF and periodic professional maintenance treatments are essential for preventing new spots from forming.
IPL is one of the most effective treatments for age spots caused by sun exposure, as the light energy is selectively absorbed by melanin and breaks down the pigment efficiently. For patients who are not candidates for IPL, chemical peels and laser resurfacing are also highly effective alternatives.
Treatment of age spots on darker skin tones requires careful selection of the appropriate modality. IPL is not recommended for darker skin tones, but chemical peels and certain laser treatments can be used safely with the right protocols. Your provider will assess your skin tone before recommending any treatment.
Topical brightening agents including vitamin C, kojic acid, and niacinamide can help fade mild age spots over time, but professional treatments deliver significantly faster and more dramatic results, particularly for well-established spots. They work best as a maintenance step after professional treatment.
Most clients see significant improvement after a series of three to five IPL sessions spaced three to four weeks apart. The number depends on the number, size, and depth of the age spots being treated.
