How to Treat Age Spots

Article Category: Lifestyle

Author Name: Gabrielle Blanche

As men and women get older, their skin starts to develop age spots. These so-called liver spots, with no relation to the live, generally begin to surface when people reach their 40's. They are concentrated in places that are most exposed to the sun, for example the face, arms, and chest. People become more susceptible to these spots as they age because their bodies are no longer able to regenerate enough skin cells to shield them against UV rays. This also prompts the body to produce more melanin as a security mechanism against radiation.

However, it is not only older people who are struggling from these skin discoloration. Even younger men and women, who love staying outdoors, can have sun spots, which appear a lot more like freckles than actual liver spots. Fair-skinned people are more susceptible to having these blemishes because they do not have as much melanin, which will protects the skin from Ultra violet rays, as dark-skinned people.

People would rather get rid of age spots because they look like unsightly blemishes on their skin. Those who might like to have their age spots removed usually go for the following options:

Laser Surgery
This is considered the most effective way to treat these spots. Most people avoid it, though, since it can be a bit pricey; some professionals, for example, usually ask for around $100 per area. However, those who would wish to select this option are encouraged to consult with a dermatologist prior to their treatment to ensure that they are skin cancer-free.

Chemical Peel
This involves the usage of a exfoliant to get rid of the spot-ridden outer layer of the skin. Individuals who undergo this process can experience some irritation in the beginning, but this goes away after a week or so. Furthermore, patients are recommended to stay indoors for the duration of their treatment to avoid any unpleasant side effects.

Whitening Creams
Here is the least expensive and most accessible option for eliminating age spots. Bleaching creams can easily be bought in stores or even - in the case of medically-approved topical treatments - in the office of one's dermatologist. Some skin whitening creams, like kojic acid as well as hydroquinone solutions, might appear to work. But, as reported by Dr. Eric Bernstein, Clinical Teacher at UPSM and Medical Director of the Mainline Cosmetic Laser Center, creams do not work on removing the spots; rather, they may merely whiten the areas around the liver spots.

Prior to starting any type of whitening treatment, it is usually best to speak with one's dermatologist to check for allergy symptoms to particular chemicals. In the case of chemical peels and bleaching products, they might have certain components that could cause irritation or some other skin problem. It also helps to look for signs of skin cancer. Should it be cancer, it will require more intensive treatments and, possibly, some chemotherapy.

Even though brown spots naturally occur, they can be prevented if people take actions to lower their sun exposure. This won't always mean that you are unable to go on sunny holidays. It's okay to chill at the beach provided that one has effective sun screen lotion and some protective covering on hand.
