Understanding Brown Spots and Skin Bumps
Our skin is our largest organ and is often exposed to various factors that can lead to irregularities like brown spots and bumps. Though these markings are usually benign, they can be bothersome. Our expert providers at Morpheus Medical Aesthetics can assess, identify, and treat a range of skin concerns, helping you enjoy clearer, healthier-looking skin.
Common Types of Brown Spots
Brown spots come in different forms, each with unique characteristics:
- Age Spots: Also called liver spots, these form due to an overproduction of melanin from prolonged sun exposure. They are common on the face, shoulders, back, and hands and are more likely to appear as we age.
- Freckles: Often genetic or caused by sun exposure, freckles are small, brown spots that can develop over time, especially in those with fair skin and light hair.
- Seborrheic Keratosis: These are brown, slightly raised, and wart-like spots. Although they may look concerning, they are non-cancerous and are often removed for cosmetic reasons or if they cause irritation.
Why Do Brown Spots Appear?
Genetics, age, and sun exposure are the primary causes of brown spots. While most are harmless, it’s essential to have any new or changing spots evaluated by a healthcare professional to ensure there are no cancerous concerns.
Treatment Options for Brown Spots at Morpheus Medical Aesthetics
At our Larkspur location, we offer several treatments to reduce the appearance of brown spots, allowing you to achieve a clearer, more even complexion.
IPL Photofacials
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Photofacials are highly effective for treating sun damage and reducing brown spots. The IPL device emits light wavelengths that target melanin, breaking down pigmentation to leave you with a smoother, more uniform skin tone. The procedure is non-invasive, and our team applies a numbing cream for your comfort. This quick, 30- to 60-minute treatment has minimal downtime, allowing you to resume your day right after.
Clear & Brilliant Laser Skin Resurfacing
Clear & Brilliant is a gentle laser treatment that reduces brown spots and revitalizes the skin by stimulating collagen production. Beyond spot treatment, this option offers multiple benefits, including smoother texture, reduced fine lines, and an even skin tone. Clear & Brilliant is suitable for all skin types, and while you may experience minor redness post-treatment, you can return to daily activities immediately.
