Age Spot Removal

Fade age spots and sun damage with precision laser treatments.

01 — OVERVIEW

About Age Spot Removal

Age spots, sun spots, and liver spots on the face, hands, chest, and shoulders respond quickly to targeted laser and IPL treatments that break up excess pigment without harming surrounding skin.

Age spots (also called solar lentigines or liver spots) are flat, brown or tan patches caused by years of sun exposure. They're most common on sun-exposed areas: face, décolleté, hands, and forearms. Our Enlighten III Pico laser and Lumecca IPL shatter pigment at the cellular level so your body clears it naturally over 2–4 weeks. Most patients see dramatic fading after 1–3 sessions.

Reveal Clear, Youthful Skin with Age Spot Removal

As we age, it's common for our skin to develop age spots due to sun exposure and the natural aging process. At Miami Skin Spa in Brickell, we offer state-of-the-art, non-invasive treatments specifically designed to target and eliminate age spots, revealing a clearer, more youthful complexion. Using advanced technology, our treatments effectively reduce pigmentation and restore smooth, radiant skin — leaving you feeling confident and refreshed.

Age spots are stubborn reminders of years spent in the sun, but they don't have to be permanent. With the right combination of laser technology and a tailored aftercare plan, our team can fade those flat, brown patches on your face, hands, chest, and shoulders so the surface of your skin matches how you actually feel.

What Are Age Spots?

Age spots — sometimes called sun spots or liver spots — are flat, brown or tan patches that show up on areas of the body that have collected the most cumulative UV exposure over time. They tend to surface on the face, hands, décolleté, and forearms, and they typically multiply as the skin's ability to regulate pigment slows down with age. While they are not medically dangerous on their own, they are one of the clearest visual signs of long-term sun damage and can age the skin's appearance well beyond your years.

The good news is that age spots respond well to targeted laser and light treatments. Because the pigment sits relatively close to the surface, modern picosecond and IPL technologies can shatter or absorb the excess pigment without harming the surrounding skin — letting your body clear the broken-down particles naturally as your complexion renews.

Why Choose Miami Skin Spa for Age Spot Removal

At our Brickell studio, age spot removal is not a one-size-fits-all menu item. Our team begins with a careful evaluation of your skin, the depth and density of your pigmentation, and the areas you want to treat, then matches you to the right device and protocol.

  • Non-invasive technology — every treatment we offer for age spots is non-surgical, with little to no downtime
  • Advanced laser platforms — we work with Pico Genesis and Laser Genesis to target pigment with precision
  • Personalized protocols — your plan is built around your skin, your spots, and your schedule
  • Expert aftercare — we walk you through gentle skincare and sun-protection guidance so your results last

Our goal is simple — fade the pigment that's already there, protect what's underneath, and help you maintain a smooth, radiant, youthful complexion.

The Age Spot Removal Process

Every age spot removal journey at Miami Skin Spa follows a structured, patient-first sequence so you always know what to expect on the day of your appointment and in the weeks that follow.

  1. Consultation — Your treatment begins with an in-depth consultation to evaluate your skin and determine the best approach. We assess the type of pigmentation, your skin tone, your medical history, and your goals before recommending a protocol.
  2. Laser Treatment — During the session, Pico Genesis or Laser Genesis is carefully applied to the affected areas. Most sessions take less than 30 minutes, making this an easy treatment to fit into a lunch break or busy day.
  3. Post-Treatment — Mild redness or swelling may occur but subsides quickly, allowing you to return to daily activities almost immediately.
  4. Results — Over the next few weeks, the pigmented spots will begin to fade, revealing smoother, younger-looking skin.

What Treatment Feels Like

Both Pico Genesis and Laser Genesis are generally well-tolerated, with most patients describing only mild discomfort during the session. A cooling device is often used to enhance comfort during the procedure, and the precision of these laser systems means we can focus the energy on pigmented areas without overheating the surrounding skin.

Recovery from Age Spot Removal

Recovery from age spot removal with Pico Genesis and Laser Genesis is quick and convenient, allowing you to return to your daily activities almost immediately.

Immediate Enhancement

Most clients experience a noticeable improvement in skin tone right after the treatment. Mild redness or swelling may occur but typically subsides within a few hours. Many patients are comfortable heading straight back to work or social plans the same day.

Minimal Downtime

Both Pico Genesis and Laser Genesis are non-invasive procedures, meaning there's little to no downtime. You can resume normal activities the same day, making it an ideal option for those with busy schedules. There are no bandages, no sutures, and no extended recovery period to plan around.

Aftercare

To ensure the best results, we recommend using gentle skincare products and avoiding direct sun exposure for a few days post-treatment. Applying sunscreen daily is crucial to protect your skin and maintain your results. Our team at Miami Skin Spa will provide you with personalized aftercare instructions to help you achieve the best possible outcome, ensuring a smooth recovery process and long-lasting results.

Gradual Results

Over the following weeks, treated age spots will gradually fade as your skin naturally renews itself, revealing a more even and radiant complexion. The breakdown of pigment is a process — not an overnight switch — and the patience is rewarded with a cleaner, brighter look that compounds with each session.

Who is a Candidate for Age Spot Removal

Age spot removal is a great fit for adults who are bothered by flat brown or tan patches on the face, hands, chest, or shoulders and want a non-invasive way to address them. Because our team works with multiple laser and light platforms, we are able to tailor treatment to a wide range of skin types and pigmentation patterns.

You may be a strong candidate if you are:

  • Noticing new or darkening age spots on sun-exposed areas
  • Looking for a non-surgical solution with minimal downtime
  • Committed to daily sun protection and a consistent home skincare routine
  • Generally healthy and free of active skin infections in the treatment area

A consultation will determine the best treatment for your specific needs. If your skin would benefit from a different approach — for example, a brightening peel layered with laser, or a focus on broader sun damage — we will say so. Our recommendations are always built around what will actually work for you.

Treatments We Use for Age Spot Removal

Several technologies in our studio are well-suited to fading age spots, and the right choice depends on the size, depth, and location of the pigmentation. During your consultation our team will walk you through which platform — or combination — fits your skin.

Pico Genesis

Pico Genesis uses ultra-short picosecond pulses to shatter pigment with precision, making it a strong option for individual age spots on the face and hands. Sessions are quick and recovery is minimal.

Laser Genesis

Laser Genesis is a gentle laser treatment that supports overall skin tone and texture alongside pigment improvement. It pairs naturally with Pico Genesis for clients who want both targeted spot removal and a broader complexion refresh.

Complementary Treatments

For patients with widespread sun damage or related concerns, our team may also recommend complementary services such as our broader laser menu or supportive in-office care. These choices are made together with you during the consultation step of the age spot removal process.

Lifestyle and At-Home Tips

The treatments at Miami Skin Spa do the heavy lifting on existing pigmentation, but the longevity of your results comes down to what happens between visits.

  • Wear sunscreen daily — applying sunscreen daily is crucial to protect your skin and maintain your results
  • Avoid excessive sun exposure — using sunscreen and avoiding excessive sun exposure is key to preventing new age spots from forming
  • Use gentle skincare products — especially in the days immediately following treatment
  • Skip direct sun exposure post-treatment — give your skin a few days to settle before any prolonged outdoor time
  • Follow your personalized aftercare plan — small consistent habits beat occasional aggressive interventions

These steps protect the investment you have already made in your skin and dramatically reduce the chance of new spots forming in the same areas.

Start Your Skin Journey

Clear, even, youthful-looking skin is within reach — and it starts with understanding what your spots are telling you. Whether you are dealing with a few stubborn marks on the back of your hands or broader pigmentation across the face and chest, our team can build a plan that fits your skin and your schedule.
