How Do Brown Spots Occur?

Melanin clumping and ultraviolet (UV) light exposure are the main causes of age spots. Though we know the cause of these issues, predicting when or where they will show up is tough, if not impossible, even with sun protection and wearing protective clothing. Some spots can take a long time to show, while others can appear seemingly overnight. Their unpredictable nature means we can’t control their onset. However, with a bit of help from our team, you can get rid of these spots after they’ve appeared.

What Are the Signs of Age and Dark Spots?

Color and shape are what define and distinguish hyperpigmentation. In most cases, age spots tend to be flat, oval in shape, and usually darker than your skin tone. They generally appear on areas of your body that have had the most sun exposure. While they may look similar to skin cancer, they are completely benign. These areas include the backs of your hands, the tops of your feet, your face, and your shoulders. They can range in size, from small freckle dots to being about half an inch in diameter. Age spots often group together, making them more noticeable.

Skin MD has a beautiful atmosphere, friendly staff, affordable pricing, and any treatment your skin needs. I received the Venus Legacy treatment (a collagen-boosting treatment) from Shannon and had a wonderful experience. Not only was it like a warm massage for my face, but this treatment gave IMMEDIATE plumping, increased blood circulation, and made my skin glow! I will definitely be coming back for all my skin needs and medical-grade skin care. I recommend it to everyone!

~ Skyla M.

The staff are so welcoming and comforting. They take time to listen to your needs and they do not pressure you into doing anything you don't want to do. They also take time to explain the process and their decision making to you so that you have all the facts.

~ Lauren M.

Friendly, fast, and professional service at the highest quality. Really impressed with the results of their services, and my technician is very knowledgeable and helpful when I have any questions. They made sure I was fully educated on the services I received and perform check-ins to ensure my skin heals properly. Also, the most convenient location in Back Bay!

~ Jules B.

I cannot say enough great things about this SkinMD. The staff was amazing, and their services are amazing. I am so, so happy with how my nose came out, and I am now a lifetime customer of SkinMD and will be recommending SkinMD to everyone I know.

How to Treat Age Spots

Treating and fading age spots can take more than an over-the-counter cream. In some cases, specialized treatment may be needed. At SkinMD, we offer several options for your skin. Our options include lasers, IPL (intense pulsed light), and chemical peels. When you arrive for your free consultation, we will take the time to discuss each treatment option and find the one best suited to your needs. These work on both lighter and darker skin tones.

Enlighten® PICO Genesis

Enlighten Pico Genesis™ uses the latest in laser technology to reduce the appearance of age spots. The laser targets the pigment in the age spot directly, breaking it up, and leaving you with a more flawless complexion. It can also be used to treat freckles, hyperpigmentation, and more.

CO2 Laser Therapy

CO2 Laser is a fractionated CO2 laser that takes off the surface layer of the skin to address age spots, sun damage, enlarged pores, and wrinkles. As the skin heals, it boosts collagen production and breaks up pigment, resulting in a refreshed complexion.

Intense Pulsed Light

Intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy uses concentrated light to target pigment in the skin, including age spots. It can work on the hands, face, neck, and chest, and allows you to have a beautiful, flawless complexion without making any injuries or punctures in the skin.

DiamondGlow®

DiamondGlow™ offers a multi-step skincare treatment that cannot only address age spots, bur also lines and wrinkles, dryness, and congested pores. It starts by cleansing the skin and then uses a diaming-tipped wand to exfoliate away dead skin cells and other impurities. The skin is then infused with customized serums to give you the glow you’ve always wanted.

Chemical Peels

Chemical peels use customized chemical solutions to remove dead skin cells and improve skin health. By removing the top layer of skin, the treatment will stimulate collagen production and trigger the skin’s natural healing process, leaving you with brighter and clearer skin.
