Ultraviolet rays in sunlight are by far the most important underlying cause for skin aging (while also increasing the risk of skin cancer). Sun Spots and Lentigo are areas of pigmentation on face, neck, decolletage, hands, arms, or other exposed body parts following years of exposure to sunlight. Continuous and proper use of broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunblocks is key in preventing this condition.
If present, sun spots and lentigo can be treated with IPL (Photofacial) or Erbium Laser Skin Resurfacing. For best results, a series of treatments is recommended.
