Age Spots Treatment in Frisco, TX
Age spots—also called “sun spots” or solar lentigines—are flat patches of pigment that develop over time, most often on areas exposed to light like the face, hands, shoulders, and décolletage. Our approach is regenerative and refined: we treat visible discoloration while strengthening the skin so results look brighter, smoother, and naturally even.
Concerned a dark spot could be something else? We always recommend an annual skin check with a board-certified dermatologist—especially for any spot that changes in size, shape, or color.
What Causes Age Spots—Beyond Sunlight
UV exposure is the most well-known trigger, but pigment is often multi-factorial. Over time, environmental stress and inflammation can stimulate melanin activity and make discoloration more visible.
Light Exposure (UV + HEV)
Chronic light exposure can signal pigment production. For some skin types, visible light (including blue light) may contribute to hyperpigmentation.
Heat + Inflammation
Heat, irritation, acne, and past skin trauma can leave post-inflammatory pigmentation as the skin heals.
Pollution + Oxidative Stress
Environmental toxins can increase oxidative stress—one reason antioxidant support and barrier health matter.
Intrinsic Aging + Hormones
As turnover slows with age, pigment clusters can appear more defined—especially during hormonal shifts.

Preventing Future Age Spots
Maintenance matters. Protecting your results is often a combination of daily SPF, reducing chronic heat exposure, and using antioxidant support to defend against oxidative stress.
Daily protection
Use broad-spectrum SPF consistently (even indoors) and reapply as needed.
Limit chronic heat
Be mindful of prolonged heat exposure (saunas, hot yoga, cooking heat) if you’re pigment-prone.
Treat inflammation early
Address acne and irritation promptly to reduce the risk of lingering discoloration.
Maintain + monitor
Regular facials/light exfoliation can help keep tone bright—plus annual derm checks for changing spots.
