Years of sun exposure can leave behind flat, brown patches of discoloration known as sun spots. While they're harmless, many people want them gone, and med spa treatments offer some of the most effective ways to fade them.
What Are Sun Spots?
Sun spots, also called sunspots or solar lentigines, form when UV exposure triggers excess pigment production in the skin.
Common areas affected include:
- Face and cheeks
- Hands
- Chest and shoulders
- Forearms

Sun Spot FAQ
Will sun spots come back after treatment?
New sun exposure can cause new spots, so daily SPF is essential for maintaining results.
How many treatments will I need?
Most patients see improvement in 1–3 sessions, depending on the treatment and severity.
Is there downtime?
Downtime varies. BBL Heroic typically involves minimal downtime, while laser resurfacing may require a few days of recovery.
