What Are Brown Spots?

Brown spots are benign pigmented lesions caused primarily by sun damage and the skin’s natural aging process. They most commonly occur on the face, chest, hands, and shoulders, where there is the most sun exposure. Though not dangerous, they can become darker and more noticeable over time, making treatment a popular option for cosmetic reasons.

What to Expect During Brown Spot Treatment

Every treatment plan begins with a comprehensive skin evaluation to confirm the diagnosis and rule out concerning lesions. Based on your needs, we may recommend one or more of the following:

  1. Laser therapy: Targets and breaks up pigment for gradual fading.
  2. Chemical peels: Exfoliate discolored outer layers to reveal brighter skin.
  3. Cryotherapy: Freezes spots with liquid nitrogen for removal.
  4. Topical medications: Prescription creams that gradually lighten pigmentation.
  5. Combination treatments: For more stubborn or widespread discoloration.

Recovery and Long-Term Results

Downtime varies depending on the chosen method. Before the treated spots fade, mild redness, flaking, or temporary darkening of the treated spots is common. Most patients see significant improvements within weeks, with optimal results after several treatments. Consistent sun protection is essential to prevent new spots from forming.

Brown Spot Treatment Frequently Asked Questions

Are brown spots dangerous?

Most brown spots are harmless, but evaluation by a dermatologist ensures accurate diagnosis and rules out skin cancer.

Will my brown spots come back after treatment?

Treated spots usually fade or disappear, but new ones may develop with continued sun exposure. Preventive care is key.

How many treatments will I need?

This varies based on the treatment type and severity of pigmentation. Some patients see results after one session, while others need a series.

Is treatment safe for all skin tones?

Yes, but techniques and settings must be carefully chosen. We customize every treatment to your skin type.

Will insurance cover brown spot treatment?

Because it is considered cosmetic, insurance generally does not cover brown spot removal.
