How to Get Rid of Sun Spots

October 15, 2019

Sun exposure can result in premature aging of the skin, which can often reveal itself as brown pigmented spots that we lovingly refer to as age spots and sun spots.  These brown lesions often appear on the face, chest and back, as well as the back of the hands and legs.  But luckily, in a cosmetic sense, we can undo some of the damage using a combination of at-home and in-office treatments.  Our guest, Dr. Robyn Gmyrek, spent over 20 years on the faculty of Columbia University Medical Center where she was Division Chief of Cosmetic Dermatology and founded Columbia University’s Cosmetic Skin and Laser Center.  Now a practicing dermatologist, she shares her vast knowledge of the treatments that work, and when they are safe to use.  From Hydroquinone to Fraxel, she'll share her favorite ways to remove pigmented lesions from your skin.
