Brown spots appear on the face, but also on the hands which are among the areas most exposed to the sun. Bearing many names, these dark spots are not at all aesthetic and we all want to get rid of them. What causes these marks to appear? How to make them disappear?
Brown spots: what are they?
Also called “age spots” or “sun spots”, brown spots are closely linked to UV exposure and aging of the epidermis.
Over time, the production of melanin concentrates on certain areas and forms clusters which materialize in the form of rounded pigment spots of varying darkness. Their size varies quite a bit, but their number tends to increase over the years.
They therefore appear mainly on the parts of the body most exposed to the sun: the hands, face, neck, neckline and shoulders.
