Laser Freckle Removal FAQ in Stillwater, MN

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.

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.

Can retinol remove 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 lasers permanently remove freckles?

PicoSure and PicoWay laser freckle removal are suitable for: Removes temporary sun caused freckles (ephelides) Removes permanent genetic freckles (lentigines) All skin types.

What foods reduce freckles?

Applying raw potato juice or slices of raw potato on dark spots regularly can help in fading out of dark spots, freckles and sun tan. This is due to the presence of vitamin c, potassium and other brightening agents in raw potato helps in removing dark spots and tanning.

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.

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.

Do freckles get worse with age?

Freckles often fade or disappear with age, while solar lentigines become more common as people get older. You can help keep freckles from getting darker, and reduce the likelihood that more will appear, by taking steps to shield your skin from sunlight, especially during the summer months.

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.
