What purpose do freckles serve?

Dr. Lisa Arkin. Freckles are composed of an ingredient called melanin, which protects against damage caused by UV light. Your body makes melanin to protect itself from sun damage.

Do age spots come back after IPL?

Sometimes a specific brown spot that resolved with IPL treatment may come back months or years later. This does not mean the treatment did not work, but rather, the treatment worked and the spot returned due to aging and lifestyle factors, and it should respond well to another treatment.

Do freckles get bigger?

Your skin can develop new spots after sun exposure. Or an old freckle or mole that’s looked the same for years can suddenly change in size, shape or color. You have to be familiar with the spots on your skin to catch these changes.

Are freckles genetic or sun damage?

Although freckles are hereditary, they are activated by sun exposure. If someone that has the freckle gene (MC1R), they must spend time in the sun in order to produce freckles. A person without the freckles genes will not produce freckles regardless of if they are in the sun or not.

Do lasers get rid of brown spots?

Laser treatments are the number one most effective treatment for brown spot removal. There are several laser systems that can gently and effectively remove unwanted pigment from your skin.

Can too much laser damage skin?

Lasers can harm the skin via photochemical or thermal burns. Depending on the wavelength, the beam may penetrate both the epidermis and the dermis. The epidermis is the outermost living layer of skin.

What is the best laser treatment for freckles?

Green laser light is particularly effective on brown spots and freckles. The reason green light works so well at removing brown spots is because melanin pigment is designed to block light with short wavelengths, namely ultraviolet light, which is shorter than any visible color of light.

Why laser is not good for dark skin?

For decades, women and men with skin of color have been discouraged from using laser treatments since darker skin tones are more prone to hyperpigmentation and skin damage when exposed to injury or inflammation.

Do freckles go away with age?

Natural freckles don’t need treatment. They aren’t a sign of a skin problem. As you get older, they may get lighter on their own or go away entirely, depending on what type of freckle they are. If you don’t like how your freckles look, treatments can help fade them.
