Age spots — also called sun spots or liver spots — are flat, darkened patches of skin that develop after years of cumulative sun exposure trigger excess pigment production. They’re extremely common and generally a cosmetic concern rather than a medical one. The right light-based approach depends on your skin tone and how deep the pigment sits, which is exactly what a consultation is for.
Two of our treatments are built to target concentrated pigment like age spots — here’s where to look first.

Targeted light energy darkens concentrated pigment so it flakes away naturally as skin renews itself.

Learn More →Age spots are one visible form of sun damage — they form when years of UV exposure trigger the skin to produce excess pigment in concentrated areas. Other signs of sun damage can show up alongside them, which we’ll look at together at your consultation.
It depends on how many spots you have, how deep the pigment sits, and which treatment we recommend. We’ll map out a realistic plan and timeline for your skin at your consultation rather than quote a generic number upfront.
Light-based treatments work by targeting the contrast between pigment and surrounding skin, so suitability depends on your specific skin tone and pigment depth. We’ll evaluate that at your consultation and recommend the approach that makes sense for you.
Treatment addresses the pigment that’s already there, but new sun exposure over time can lead to new spots forming. Daily sun protection and touch-up visits as needed are usually part of keeping results looking their best, and we can talk through that at your consultation.
