Brown spots, also called "age spots" or "liver spots," are harmless spots that develop on areas of the body frequently exposed to sunlight, like the face, hands, shoulders and arms.
What is it?
Uneven skin pigmentation and dark spots often result from the skin's natural aging process, mainly due to prolonged sun exposure. These patches, varying in size and color, typically appear flat and can affect areas exposed to UV light, including the face, hands, shoulders and arms.
These spots affect people of all skin types but are more prevalent in adults, typically over 50, with lighter skin tones. Unlike freckles, they don't fade over time. While brown spots are typically harmless, if you're bothered by them, our board-certified dermatologists will create a personalized treatment for even, radiant skin. We're here to find treatment options just for you!
