Age spots (also called sunspots, brown spots, dark spots, or liver spots) are very common, yet those who have them are very often bothered by them.

Age spots are often flat, oval, and dark in color. They appear when the skin cells increase the production of pigment. After years and years of sun exposure, the melanin gathers in the upper layer of our skin and can clump up or be overproduced in high concentrations. This results in age spots.
Contrary to the name, age spots are not necessarily caused by getting older. Although people age 50 and up are more likely to develop age spots, they can also affect younger individuals, and can even be caused by pregnancy. Other causes of age spots include certain medications, hormonal imbalances, and liver disease.
Age spots typically appear on the parts of the skin that are most exposed to the sun: the face, shoulders, upper back, arms, and backs of the hands. Because these areas are noticeable, many people want to remove the spots from their skin.
At BeauxMD in McKinney, TX we provide a variety of age spot treatments that achieve excellent results. These treatments include:
Intense pulsed light treatments reduce the irregular discoloration of the skin by heating up the areas that house the color, which destroys the pigment (age spot). This helps even out skin tone and make the skin more radiant and bright.
Chemical peels can improve the appearance of age spots by creating brand new skin. The mild acid in chemical peels remove old, damaged skin and replaces it with new, healthier skin.
Laser skin resurfacing treatments help age spots to gradually fade over several weeks or months by removing damaged skin layer by layer with laser heat.
