Age Spots
Age spots are the flat brown or tan marks that show up after years of sun-loving activities. While it’s important to check in with your dermatologist to make sure none of the spots are pre-cancerous, most age spots are harmless and are just a cosmetic concern. Age spots can be reduced with the right treatments and prevented with good skincare strategies. We can guide you to the right treatments and skincare routines at MSpa in Concord, CA.
What Causes Age Spots?
Dark spots are caused by an increase of melanin, the brown pigment that gives your skin color. When your skin is exposed to UV light, your skin responds by increasing melanin as a natural defense. This can cause clumps of pigment to show up on your skin. The more sun exposure you’ve had, the more likely it is that these spots will make an appearance.
Common Signs and Characteristics of Age Spots
- Flat, oval-shaped spots on the skin
- Appear on areas exposed to the sun (face, hands, shoulders, arms)
- Have the same texture as the surrounding skin
- Painless
- Range in size from freckle-sized to larger patches grouped together
