Protecting your skin from the sun is about more than just preventing sunburns. The sun can cause a lot of damage and changes to the skin. One of the most common and most noticeable skin issues caused by the sun is age spots.
Age spots occur as a result of UV damage to the skin caused by the rays of the sun. Age spots most commonly occur on the face, hands, arms, and shoulders, areas of the body that are frequently exposed to the sun. Increased sun exposure and a lack of proper skin care can make these age spots larger and more noticeable.
At Gallery Plastic Surgery, we offer chemical peels that have been proven to reduce the appearance of age spots and restore the even complexion of your skin. Plastic surgeon Dr. Wendy Wong will customize your chemical peel to meet the specific needs of your skin. Contact us to schedule a consultation.
