Laser Freckle Removal FAQ in Providence, RI

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 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.

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.

Does retinol get rid of freckles?

While freckles may seem very different from hyperpigmentation and dark spots, they are still caused by UV exposure at the end of the day. Using retinol and retinoid products increases cell turnover, thus lightening spots of all kinds, freckles included.

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.

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.

How does laser freckle removal work?

Laser freckle removal targets the melanin in your skin. It absorbs the pigmentation inside of the freckles. It breaks up the pigments of melanin. The freckles will be removed when the skin naturally exfoliates itself.

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.

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.

Can Apple cider vinegar remove a freckle?

Apple cider vinegar is one of the best options to get rid of dark spots and freckles. It contains malic acid that exfoliates dark skin cells and lightens the freckle. Vinegar reduces the hyper-pigmentation of any type and also improves the overall appearance of your skin.

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.
