Age Spots Treatment in Sacramento
Age spots, also known as liver spots or solar lentigines, are dark patches that can appear on the skin, usually in areas exposed to the sun. These flat spots range in color from light brown to black and may vary in size significantly, from a few millimeters to several centimeters across. Age spots generally occur after age 40 due to prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays over time and are most common on areas of the body such as the face, hands, arms, and legs, which have been regularly exposed to sunlight.
Should I Be Concerned about Age Spots?
Most age spots are harmless and don’t require medical attention; however, if you’re concerned about any changes on your skin or notice any changes in the size, shape, or color of an age spot, it is best to check with a doctor. In some cases, what appears to be an age spot can actually be something else such as a melanoma (a form of skin cancer), which should always be checked out by a dermatologist.
