How Can I Get Rid of Age Spots On the Face?

Posted in Facial Rejuvenation, Laser Procedures, Skin Care Products

You may notice darker spots on your face that have developed over time. These are often the result of sun exposure or genetics, and the spots become more apparent as we age. Although wearing a daily sunscreen can help you prevent additional spots, many people feel like they have to constantly conceal existing spots, which can be frustrating. Dr. Daniel Mills offers a wide variety of treatments that can help minimize the appearance of age spots, including Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Photofacial Rejuvenation and the Cutera Laser Genesis™ technique. Both of these advanced lasers are designed to safely and comfortably treat affected areas to reduce signs of aging, including sun damage. Additionally, these minimally invasive treatments can offer benefits such as skin tightening and an overall improved complexion. The Laser Genesis also encourages collagen production, resulting in a more youthful appearance that continues to improve. Both of these treatments can be completed in our office, and there is typically little to no downtime for patients; however, multiple treatment sessions are usually necessary to achieve the desired result. Following treatment, Dr. Mills encourages patients to maintain the health of their skin by using anti-aging skin care products, as well as a daily sunscreen to protect the skin from further damage.

Laser skin therapy is one of the most effective treatments for reducing the appearance of age spots, but it may not be for everyone. Dr. Mills also offers several non-surgical options that can improve your skin tone, such as specialized skin care treatments, chemical peels, and microneedling. To help you determine which treatment is best for you, we encourage you to contact us today to schedule a one-on-one consultation with Dr. Mills. He can assess your concerns, answer any questions you may have, and help you select the type of care that can yield the best possible results.
