Brown spots — also known as “age spots” and “liver spots” — are non-cancerous spots appearing on areas of the body primarily exposed to ultraviolet light such as the face, hands, shoulders and arms.
What is it?
Brown spots and skin discoloration are typical signs of the skin's aging process. They appear as small, flat, darkened patches that differ in size. These spots occur on skin areas exposed to ultraviolet light, such as the sun, tanning beds or sun lamps, specifically the face, hands, shoulders and arms.
People of all skin types can be affected by these spots, but they are most prevalent in adults, mainly over 50 years old, with lighter skin. Unlike freckles, these brown spots do not fade with time. They are harmless and do not necessitate medical treatment, but if their appearance bothers you, our certified, physician-led teams at Beavercreek Dermatology are here to help. We will devise a tailored treatment plan that will leave your skin evenly-toned and glowing. Contact us for a consultation. We are here to assist you.
