The sun can be your best friend or worst enemy. Sunlight can provide your skin with Vitamin D and can even help with bad acne. Still it’s important to watch for over exposure to the sun. Obvious sun damage includes sunburns and skin cancer, but sun damage can also include thick, dry skin, wrinkles, blotches and discoloration, and those freckly sun spots. Sun spots are not unrelated to age spots or liver spots, high exposure to the sun can make us age prematurely.

Suntans are essentially controlled radiation burns; tans are actually something that your body needs to heal from. Sun spots happen when your body can no longer heal itself properly. What remain from the tan are small brown spots. Fortunately, sun spot removal is possible. There’s no reason to look old before your time. Several non-surgical cosmetic treatments can successfully remove sun spots including Chemical Peels, Microdermabrasion, IPL Photofacial, and Thermage.

Chemical Peels and Microdermabrasion both use intensive exfoliation techniques to remove sun spots. Chemical Peels use a solution to literally peel the top layer of sun damaged skin off. New, healthier skin can grow back. Microdermabrasion uses a fine aluminum oxide spray to gently exfoliate your skin. Dead and damaged skin is removed during the process. Microdermabrasion is less effective at removing sun spots, but it’s also less invasive.

Photofacial and Thermage use energies to break down the unwanted pigmentation. Photofacial uses a light-based system, while Thermage uses intense radio frequencies. As the sun spots break apart they can be reabsorbed into the body. Just like healing from a regular tan, your sun spots should slowly fade away.

Remember just because there are great aesthetic procedures to correct sun damage skin available, it doesn’t give you a license to go gallivanting in the sun. Always wear a hat and use sunscreen to protect yourself.
