Age Spot Removal

An Overview

Look to these non-invasive treatments to eliminate age spots:

Photofacial

Microdermabrasion

Chemical Peel

Age spots, also known as liver spots or lentigines, are the flat, brown spots of discoloration that appear on the skin, usually tied to frequent sun exposure and aging. Age spots normally begin to appear in individuals over the age of 55, as a result of the increase of the ceroid pigment in the skin. However, people who spend a lot of time in the sun or in tanning booths are most susceptible to the condition, regardless of skin type.

There are numerous treatments available for age spot removal, from bleach creams and acid gels to skin sanding and electric needle techniques. For more precise, permanent results, however, you may want to look into a laser procedure like photofacial, as well as chemical based treatments such as microdermabrasion and chemical peels.

How Long Does this Procedure Take?

Microdermabrasion treatments can take up to 30 minutes to perform, while more invasive treatments for age spots like Photofacials and chemical peels can require up to an hour for treatment.

Age Spot Removal Side Effects:

Age spot removal treatments that cause the most downtime are usually highly concentrated chemical peels or intense laser skin resurfacing. If your skincare provider recommends this treatment for your age spots, you can expect to experience blistering, stinging, redness, and some pain after the procedure. Usually, only the age spots themselves are treated, rather than the entire area, which cuts down on any negative side effects.

Length of Age Spot Removal Results:

For permanent removal of your age spots, at least 3 treatments are required to see results.

Age Spot Removal Recovery Time:

With more invasive procedures such as laser skin resurfacing and chemical peels, up to 2 weeks can be required for full healing.

$70 per treatment
