You might be interested in removing age spots if you have them. There are several methods for

age spot removal and some work much better than others so, if you have noticed these

unattractive brown marks on your skin, it is useful to know about removal methods.



Age Spot Removal Techniques



Prevention is obviously the best way to keep age spots at bay. This means using sunscreen

before sun exposure and staying out of direct sunlight when you can.



You will not see age spots in places that are not exposed to the sun much, such as your inner

thighs, but you might notice them on your face and hands, so these are the places never to forget

the sunscreen.



If you already have age spots, knowing about prevention is useful to stop more age spots from

appearing but it does not help with removing age spots which are already there.



Age spot removal options include laser resurfacing, bleaching creams, chemical peel and

intensive pulsed light therapy, as well as using natural remedies. Let's take a closer look at your

options.



Laser Resurfacing



With laser resurfacing, age spots and wrinkles are burned off with a laser. If you use sun

protection afterwards, the effects can last up to five years.



You might experience redness, peeling and pain after laser resurfacing because the epidermis is

removed and it will take at least a week to recover from it. Laser resurfacing costs anything from

one thousand to five thousand dollars, depending how much of your face is treated with this age

spot removal method.



Bleaching Creams



Bleaching creams contain two percent hydroquinone, which is a type of bleach. A prescription

cream might use single bleaching agents like tretinoin or a combination, such as tretinoin,

hydroquinone and cortisone.



These bleaching creams for removing age spots are not very effective although they might lighten

age spots over several weeks or months of use. Side effects can include dryness, peeling or

redness. Bleaching creams do not work on everyone and they are quite expensive.

Chemical Peels



Chemical peels are used to remove age spots, wrinkles and skin discoloration. They can smooth

the skin and remove age spots over a period of time. Superficial peels are safer than deep ones

but you might need to have a lot done before you notice results, meaning you have to spend a lot.



Intense Pulsed Light Therapy



With intense pulsed light therapy, or IPL, an intense broadband light is used to fade age spots,

freckles and broken blood vessels. The results usually last for one year if you use good sun

protection.



The procedure can be painful and you might need more than one treatment for removing age

spots. IPL is normally more expensive than peels but less expensive than laser treatment.



Age Spot Removing Creams



If you prefer the natural and pain-free approach, you can remove age spots with moisturizers

which also improve skin tone and minimize wrinkles and fine lines.



You should look for skin cream ingredients such as Cynergy TK because this substance contains

functional keratin to stimulate new cell growth which, in turn, minimizes wrinkles and age spots.

Cynergy TK encourages your body to produce more elastin and collagen, both of which can

improve your looks noticeably. Cynergy TK has been shown in clinical testing to lighten the skin as

it helps increase collagen, elastin and new skin cells.



When combined in a skin cream with natural moisturizers such as shea butter and avocado oil,

Cynergy TK becomes very effective at lightening age spots. Removing age spots is something that

is best done the natural way and age spot removal with a moisturizer means you can target

wrinkles and fine lines simultaneously without using potentially harmful ingredients.

appearance of your skin.
