What is Age Spot?
Age spots are flat, brown-colored spots that usually appear after the age of 40 and are caused by melanin accumulation in the skin. They are most commonly seen on the face, back of the hand, shoulders and décolleté. Long-term exposure to the sun accelerates the formation of these spots.

How Should You Choose a Cream?

When choosing an effective cream against age spots, care should be taken to ensure that it contains spot-lightening and skin-renewing ingredients. The age, sensitivity of the skin and the intensity of the spot are important for choosing the right product.

What Are the Effective Ingredients?

Retinol: Supports cell renewal, lightens the color of spots.

Vitamin C: Evens out skin tone, provides a brightening effect.

Arbutin and niacinamide: Suppresses melanin production, reduces the appearance of spots.

AHA/BHA acids: Helps to regulate skin tone differences by cleansing dead skin.

Regular Use is a Must
Patience and regular use are required for creams to be effective. Generally, visible results start within a few weeks, but the full effect occurs in 2-3 months.

Sun Protection Should Not Be Forgotten
It is very important to protect the skin from the sun during and after treatment. Using sunscreen prevents existing spots from darkening and new ones from forming.

Expert Support May Be Required
Although spot creams are effective in many cases, support can be obtained with dermatological treatments (such as laser, chemical peeling) for deep and stubborn spots. At this point, the best approach is to consult a specialist.
