Sunspots Treatment Clinic

Sunspots are flat discolorations that usually emerge on parts of your skin that are frequently exposed to the sun, such as the face, back, shoulders, and backs of the hands. They are mostly harmless and pose few health risks as they are non-cancerous. However, most people prefer to have them removed for cosmetic and aesthetic reasons.

What are the causes of sunspots?

Sunspots are caused by increased skin pigmentation due to UV or ultraviolet exposure. With frequent exposure to the sun, the skin increases melanin’s production, which gives us our skin color. As time passes, certain areas of the skin may overproduce melanin in response, creating sunspots.

Light-skinned people are more likely to develop sunspots, especially when they reach their 40’s or 50’s, but individuals of any skin type and age can develop them if overexposed to the sun.

What is laser treatment, and how do they work for sunspots?

An innovative procedure for treating sun-damaged skin is laser skin rejuvenation. The laser goes through the outer layer of skin and effectively stimulates new collagen and new skin cells but does little harm to healthy skin. Collagen is a naturally occurring compound in your body that is an essential component of healthy skin structure and tone.

MS Vein’s sun spot removal treatment may also remove freckles on the cheeks, nose, chest, thinning, yellowing, or wrinkled skin. Treatment for Sunspots can also address your other skin discoloration concerns, such as melasma and broken capillaries, to give you fresher, younger-looking skin.

What are the after-effects of sunspot removal treatments?

You may experience redness or mild inflammation in the treated areas, but you can typically resume your regular activities afterward. The treated areas may appear darker, but this is temporary. They will eventually heal to give you smooth, even-toned skin.
