  • What are Age Spots?

    Age Spots (Sunspots) are flat areas of skin discoloration that can be tan or varying shades of brown. They appear on the parts of your body that get the most sun exposure, such as your face, shoulders, back, and the backs of your hands.


  • What Causes Age Spots

    Your skin cells produce a chemical called melanin to protect itself against the harmful effects of the sun. Ironically, though, too much sun can cause melanin to ‘clump’ together, resulting in flat brown or black splotches known as sun (or age) spots.


    You’re most likely to develop age spots on the areas of your skin that receive the most sun, including:


    • your face
    • the back of your hands
    • your shoulders
    • your upper back
    • your forearms
