Goodbye Dark Spots: Preparing for Fall with Sun & Age Spot Treatments

As the golden days of summer wind down in Clackamas and the surrounding areas, many of us begin to notice the lingering effects of our time spent outdoors. While sunny adventures mean cherished memories, they can also leave behind unwelcome souvenirs—sun spots and age spots. At SilkySkin Laser Center, we understand how these pigmented marks can affect your skin’s appearance and confidence. Fall is the perfect season to start reversing summer damage and preparing your complexion for the colder months ahead with advanced sun and age spot treatments.

What Causes Sun and Age Spots?

Sun spots, also known as solar lentigines or liver spots, develop due to prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays. Commonly found on the face, hands, shoulders, and arms, these flat, brown, or black markings are the skin’s response to increased melanin production following sun exposure. Similarly, age spots can result from both sun exposure and the natural aging process, becoming more prominent after age 30.

Key causes of sun and age spots in Oregon include:

- Spending time outdoors during summer without sufficient sunscreen

- Genetics and age-related changes in skin

- Previous tanning or sunburn incidents

Why Start Sun and Age Spot Treatments in Fall?

Fall in Clackamas is widely considered an optimal period to address sun damage. With fewer hours of strong sunlight and more time spent indoors, your skin is less exposed to the UV rays that can interfere with the healing process after treatments. Starting spot removal now means you’ll enjoy clearer, more radiant skin by the time the holidays arrive.

Benefits of starting sun and age spot treatments in autumn:

- Reduced risk of post-treatment pigmentation due to lower UV exposure

- Easier to follow aftercare instructions (like avoiding direct sunlight)

- Fresher-looking skin for upcoming seasonal events

Advanced Laser Treatments for Sun and Age Spot Removal

SilkySkin Laser Center specializes in state-of-the-art laser treatments for sun and age spots, offering personalized solutions tailored to your unique skin type. Our certified laser specialist, Norma Khal, uses advanced technology to gently break down excess melanin—the pigment responsible for dark spots—without damaging the surrounding skin.

Here’s what sets our sun and age spot removal apart:

- Precise Targeting: Our lasers specifically target excess pigmentation, leaving healthy skin untouched.

- Collagen Boosting: Laser treatments stimulate collagen production, smoothing skin texture and reducing fine lines.

- Minimal Downtime: Most clients experience only mild redness that subsides within hours, allowing for quick return to daily activities.

- Safe for Lighter Skin Types: We tailor treatment for Fitzpatrick skin types I-III, ensuring safe, effective results.

Complementary Treatments for Enhanced Results

For even better results, our laser sun spot removal can be combined with microdermabrasion—a gentle exfoliation technique that removes dead skin cells and promotes fresh, even-toned skin. This combination allows for deeper penetration of treatment, enhances cell turnover, and leaves your skin glowing.

Our comprehensive approach includes:

- Thorough skin analysis before starting treatment

- Customized treatment plans utilizing laser technology and microdermabrasion

- Professional post-care recommendations to protect your results

Aftercare Tips for Lasting Results

Post-treatment care is vital to achieving and maintaining a radiant complexion. SilkySkin Laser Center provides practical aftercare guidance for all our clients:

- Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen daily, even during Oregon’s greyer days

- Avoid direct sun exposure as much as possible, especially in the week following treatment

- Keep skin hydrated and avoid harsh chemical exfoliants until fully healed

- Attend follow-up sessions as recommended (typically 3-5 for optimal results)
