HOW TO ADDRESS SUN SPOTS ON SKIN
WHAT ARE SUN SPOTS?
Sun spots are flat spots of increased pigmentation that usually appear on areas most exposed to the sun. They vary in size and are usually brown, black or gray. Sun spots are common in older adults and people who spend a lot of time in the sun without protecting their skin.
WHAT CAUSES SUN SPOTS ON SKIN?
Sun spots are the result of photoaging, the changes in skin caused by harmful UVA and UVB rays. The main cause of discolorations on skin is melanin overproduction due to UV exposure. Melanin is the natural pigment that gives skin its color and when overproduced melanin particles cluster together and can result in a dark spot or discoloration on skin’s surface. Sun spots tend to become more numerous with repeated sun exposure and with advancing age. Help protect skin from sun exposure with the daily use of broad-spectrum sunscreen.
ARE SUN SPOTS ON SKIN DANGEROUS?
Sun spots are usually benign. However, we recommend a further examination if you notice a sun spot develop a highly irregular border, change in pigmentation, or change in thickness.
