Age spots are flat, brown-black spots that usually occur in
sun-exposed areas on the body. Age spots are sometimes called brown
spots, liver spots or lentigos. They are completely unrelated to the liver or
liver function. Liver spots, et al. are changes in the skin color
associated with older skin. The increased pigmentation of age spots
is brought on by aging, exposure to sun or exposure to other forms of
ultraviolet lights.
Age spot removal is a painless procedure. Using the Quantum SR
laser, we remove the spots in a careful and safe manner. After
treatment, you will see an immediate improvement at the site of the
age spots.
