Laser Freckle Removal FAQ in Moline, IL

Are permanent freckles moles?

Freckles and moles are two different types of skin growths. Freckles occur as a result of sun exposure or genetics, whereas moles appear after skin cells develop into a cluster instead of spreading out into the skin.

Does freckle laser removal hurt?

Laser freckle removal is not a painful procedure, and many of our patients describe the sensation as a rubber band snapping on this skin. However, some patients may benefit from a numbing cream if they have a low tolerance for discomfort.

How do you fade freckles fast?

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) rejuvenation. Laser treatment. Chemical Peels. Topical retinoid creams. Natural remedies.

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.

Does coconut oil fade freckles?

The natural vitamins in coconut oil have fantastic healing properties for skin. People who have applied coconut oil to scars and age spots have said that it lightens them and reduces their appearance. It may also help to fade other skin discolorations like stretch marks, freckles, birthmarks, and uneven pigmentation.

How many IPL treatments does it take to get rid of freckles?

You may need three to five IPL treatments before the results are complete. The number of treatments depends on the size of the treatment area, or whether you’re hoping just to fade freckles or want them removed entirely. Multiple treatments are typically spaced out and performed after three to six weeks have passed.

Why am I developing freckles as I get older?

Age spots, also called sun spots, freckles or solar lentigines, occur as a response to sun exposure over time. They are collectively given the name “age spots” because they are visible when one is in one’s 40s or older. Age spots are dark permanent areas that do not fade away with time or with a change in season.

How much do permanent freckles cost?

The average tattooed freckles cost is around $150, but the price can vary from $80 to $350, depending on how many freckles you want and where you book your appointment. Freckles tattoos can last up to 3 years, so it’s definitely worth it if you absolutely love the look.

Does pigmentation come back after laser?

Usually, pigmented lesions or spots that have been removed will not return after your laser treatments. However, there are various factors that can stimulate new hyperpigmentation e.g. exposure to UV, ageing, hormonal factors. Laser pigmentation removal treatments do not prevent new hyperpigmentation from occurring.

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.

What are the side effects of laser?

Mild swelling around the hair follicles. Pigment changes may occur, especially in those with darker skin – these changes are usually temporary. Slight redness of the skin. Temporary irritation resulting in blistering, crusting, scarring or other changes in skin texture.

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.

Is IPL for freckles permanent?

IPL can treat discoloration from acne, but it is not an effective treatment for the ongoing condition of acne. It is also not effective for removing freckles, since the pigment is much deeper and permanent.

How long do permanent freckles last?

Just like any other permanent makeup or cosmetic tattoo procedure, on average freckles will last between one and three years.

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).
