Laser Freckle Removal FAQ in Edison, NJ

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.

Can a dermatologist remove a freckle?

Dermatologists can recommend a number of freckles treatments, including: Laser Treatment: Laser treatment is a popular method for correcting pigment irregularities on the skin. The laser boosts collagen and skin cell production to create a more even appearance.

What is a suspicious freckle?

ABCDE of Melanoma: A for Asymmetry – the mole is not symmetrical. B for Border – the border of a freckle/mole is suspicious. C for Color – there is a variation in color within the spot or compared to other moles/freckles. D for Diameter – the mole is larger than 6mm in diameter.

What freckles should I worry about?

Types of Moles 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.

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.

What to expect after laser freckle removal?

Immediately after treatment you will notice a reddening of the skin and a darkening of your freckles. The reddening will start to subside within three hours and over the following few days the pigmentation will rise to the surface of the skin and be removed via normal dead skin cell shedding.

What nationality has freckles?

While it’s true that such a mutation in people of Celtic heritage causes the stereotypical dot-dot-dots in fair redheads, variations of the MC1R gene lead to freckles in Chinese, Japanese, French, Mediterranean, Israeli, and certain African ethnic groups as well, explains Sharma.

What color cancels out freckles?

Choose a color corrector based on the shade of the freckles, Giglio explains. If the freckles are more red, a green-hued corrector will help even the tone, while a yellow-hued corrector will counteract or neutralize more of the deeper purples.

What skin type is most likely to get freckles?

Freckles often show up during childhood, and you may continue to get more until you’re in your 20s. People with fair skin or red hair are most likely to have them. There are two types of freckles: ephelides and solar lentigines. Although both are flat spots, they’re different in a few ways.

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.

Can freckles go cancerous?

Freckles are noncancerous, but they may be confused with skin cancer. Excessive sun exposure is a risk factor for both freckles and melanomas. Melanoma is more common in people with fair skin or freckles than in those with dark skin.
