What are Age Spots?

Age spots are a common, non-life threatening skin condition. The appearance of these brown spots can often leave individuals feeling self conscious. As we age, our skin changes with the rest of our body, and you may find that more age spots are popping up where there were none just a few years prior. It’s important to see a doctor if you’re unsure whether or not this new brown spot is harmless or not. If not, then there’s good news: Laser Aesthetic can treat these brown spots!*

What Causes Age Spots?

The sun’s UV rays end up causing your skin to react in order to protect itself from damage. While those with lighter skin tend to fare worse when exposed to UV rays, everyone can end up with brown spots. Brown spots are your body’s natural defense, but only some people will develop these over time as it depends on genetics as well as how diligent you are to protect yourself against the sun when outside. The cause of these spots is an overproduction of melanin that may also be due to aging.

Where do Age Spots Occur?

Age spots can occur virtually anywhere on your body — but they will mostly appear in places that are exposed to direct sunlight. These places include the:

Face
Back of the hands
Shoulders
Upper back
Forearms
Stomach
Legs

How Laser Aesthetic Can Correct Age Spots

At Laser Aesthetic, we treat age spots using the Nordlys™ laser system, a versatile and non-invasive platform that effectively targets brown spots, sun damage, and pigmentation. The Nordlys™ combines Ellipse IPL™ and Frax laser technologies to break down discoloration while preserving the surrounding healthy skin. For milder pigmentation concerns, we also offer microdermabrasion and HydraFacial treatments, both of which exfoliate the skin’s surface to promote healthy cell renewal. During your consultation, we’ll help you determine which approach best fits your skin type and goals.
