What's the difference between age spots, sun spots and liver spots?

It's particularly easy to be confused about age spots, sun spots and liver spots, due to the fact that there are many different ways of naming the same thing. No matter what name you give them, age spots cause the skin to appear damaged and years older than it is, making skin rejuvenation programs and creams to fade age spots a must.

How do I know if I have a sun spot?

Age spots, sun spots or liver spots are brownish blemishes that usually occur on the parts of the skin that are typically exposed to the sun. Age spots are not always brownish and will range in color, depending on one's skin tone and the level of sun exposure. Sun spots are essentially pigments in the skin that have been damaged by the sun, causing the skin to look aged and/or worn.

How can I rejuvenate my sun-spotted skin?

Sun and age spots can thankfully be reduced or removed entirely through medical and cosmetic procedures or by using specially designed aging skin care products. People who are concerned about the look and feel of their skin may want to look into the various ways of rejuvenating skin that has experienced sun damage. Microdermabrasion, Laser Surgery, Chemical Peels and Bleaching Creams are among the most common age spot remover techniques.

How do age spots form?

Sun spots can result from just one instance of over-exposure to the sun. Over-pigmentation occurs when the skin's melanocytes - cells located in the epidermis - begin to produce pigments in excess, following too much sun. Melanocytes are responsible for the pigment production leading to the darkening of sun-exposed skin that we normally refer to as a tan.

When melanocytes malfunction due to over-exposure, they can process an excess quantity of melanin pigment. The melanin excess then causes the brown or red spots we know as sun spots, often leading to melasma as well.

Finally, you should know that most sun spots are completely harmless and concerns about them are therefore usually cosmetic. However, average person's eye cannot distinguish skin cancer from harmless dark spots. It is therefore of vital concern that you see a dermatologist to ensure that any sun spots you may have are not cancerous.
