Brown Spots and Discoloration

Brown spots — also known as “age spots” and “liver spots” — are non-cancerous spots appearing on areas of the body primarily exposed to ultraviolet light such as the face, hands, shoulders and arms.

What is it?

Brown spots and uneven skin tone are typical maifestations of the skin's natural aging process. These patches are characterized by their small, flat, and darkened appearance, varying in size. They tend to emerge on areas of the skin that are frequently exposed to ultraviolet light, such as the face, hands, shoulders, and arms, due to factors like sunlight or tanning beds.

These spots can appear on individuals of all skin types but are most prevalent among adults, usually those over 50 years old, with fairer skin. Unlike freckles, these dark patches don't lighten over time. Although they are harmless and don't necessitate medical attention, if you are unhappy with their appearance, our board-certified, physician lead teams in Avon, Sandusky, Broadview Heights, Medina, Port Clinton, and Strongsville, Ohio are ready to create a customized treatment plan that will have you on your way to even-toned and glowing skin.
