How long does it take for freckles to fade after IPL?
Freckles and age spots after treatment generally turn darker for 3 to 7 days before they begin to fade. Crusting may occur, and can last up to 10 days.
When should I worry about a freckle?
A mole or freckle should be checked if it has a diameter of more than a pencil eraser or any characteristics of the ABCDEs of melanoma (see below). Dysplastic nevi are moles that are generally larger than average (larger than a pencil eraser) and irregular in shape.

Anybody can have freckled skin, but the colour of the specks may be lighter or darker depending on your hair and skin colour. People with red-coloured hair and fair skin are more likely to have freckles, but this is just one of many factors that affect whether skin freckles.
How painful is laser freckle removal?
Is it painful? To get really good results, the freckle removal treatment has to be reasonably painful. Most patients would give it a rating of 6-7 out of 10 on the pain scale. Some doctors like to use topical anaesthetics, eg emla, but we don’t use emla with laser pigmentation and freckle removal.
What causes freckles on face?
How do freckles develop? Freckles are the result of an overproduction of melanin. Melanin is a pigment that gives your hair, skin and eyes (your “complexion”) its color. Melanin, produced by skin cells called melanocytes, protects your skin from sun damage by absorbing and reflecting ultraviolet light (UV).
How much does it cost to get rid of freckles?
The pricing could be from $500 on up, again depending what laser would work best for your needs. I’d recommend seeing a laser surgeon for a full consultation and get an estimate.
Do freckles come back after laser treatment?
Do freckles come back after laser treatment? Treated freckles usually do not come back after a laser treatment unless there is excessive exposure to UV rays without the use of any sun protection as that may trigger the appearance of new freckles.
Does vitamin C remove freckles?
Does Vitamin C remove freckles? Vitamin C serum can help with freckle removal, but some freckles are more persistent than others. Certainly, however, when applied in serum form Vitamin C does lighten freckles. As well as having a host of other benefits, the serum will suppress melanin cells, and rejuvenate your skin.
How long does it take for brown spots to fade after laser?
After a few hours post treatment the redness will subside. During week one your dark spot will appear as dark brown “speckles,” and then will “flake off” during weeks 1-3. During weeks 1-3 you will notice your dark spot has significantly faded or has completely disappeared.
Does laser freckle removal leave scars?
In the hands of a skilled and experienced provider, freckle removal treatments should not result in a scar.
