About Sun Spot Removal
Sun spots, or age spots are flat, light to dark brown discoloured spots on the skin which commonly appear on the face, hands, chest, back, shoulders or other areas of the body which are exposed to sunlight. These marks vary in size, though are typically more visible than freckles, and accumulate over time, becoming more noticeable with age. At Vitalize Skin Clinic in Markham, sunspots are treated using the Candela GentleMax Pro, a Health Canada approved laser device which directly targets individual pigmented lesions without affecting the surrounding skin. Other treatments used to target sun spots are chemical peels. Each treatment plan is customized based on your skin type, the severity of pigmentation, and your overall skincare goals to ensure optimal results with minimal downtime.
How Do We Get Sun Spots?
Sun Exposure Over Time
Sun spots—also called age spots—happen when UV rays trigger extra pigment production in the skin. Over the years, that pigment clumps together and shows up as small, dark patches.
