What are maturity spots?
Maturity spots, often called liver spots, are flat brown skin discolorations.
They generally appear after age 40, and may be related to sun exposure.
They can be unsightly, and many people feel that these spots "advertise"
their age.
How to remove age spots?
Some kinds of bleaching creams can have an affect. Many people
have good results with superficial facial peels, particularly
when they want to improve the general appearance of their skin.
A new way to treat maturity spots is with
the laser.
The laser uses a powerful beam of light that is absorbed by the
darker, pigmented spot on the skin. That spot then "sloughs
off," leaving fresh, healthy skin beneath. The laser does
not damage the skin. The treatment is non-invasive- no needles,
no cutting, no bruises.
Why is laser treatment a good way to remove
maturity spots?
The laser is highly selective; only the pigmented area is treated.
The rest of the skin is untouched, unlike creams or peels.
Why should I see a dermatologist about maturity
spots?
Dermatologists are the recognized medical experts for skin, hair,
and nails. Your dermatologist knows the science of skin- how it
grows, how it changes with age, and how to keep it healthy.
Dermatologists also know the difference between medical and cosmetic
concerns. Some cosmetic concerns are actually caused by medical
problems, which need treatment.
Even though removing maturity spots may be a cosmetic issue,
there are medical conditions that can cause brown spots. You need
to make sure there are no other problems.

face and especially on my hands made me feel older than I am.
