How to prevent freckles?

Avoiding sun exposure is the most important preventive step in treating freckles. A broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF above 30 should be used to prevent freckling.
Use water-resistant sunscreens while swimming in the sun.
Try to use a scarf, hat, and shades when the sun is at its peak.


Treatment options for freckles:

  • Topical creams like reti-nols help increase the cell turnover rate and lighten the freckles.
  • Medium-depth peels: Peels like TCA and glycolic acid peels. They help by exfoliation of deeper layers of pigment cells.
  • Lasers: Q switched ND YAG laser is the most effective treatment option available for freckles. 

How does the laser work?

The laser works by breaking the pigment cells into smaller particles which are effectively removed from circulation in each session. It also helps in removing the dead skin layers.

Are freckles and moles the same?

Freckles occur due to excess production of melanin or pigment, whereas moles are a collection of pigment-producing cells called melanocytes. Flat moles can resemble freckles, but they are usually darker in color.

Are freckles dangerous?

Freckles are usually harmless. Please see a qualified dermatologist if you notice any surface changes like crusting, oozing, pain, or burning sensation or if there is a sudden increase in the number of freckles.

Is there a downtime post-laser, and is it painful?

Treatment with the laser is not painful. One might notice redness and mild swelling post-treatment, which usually fade away in a few hours or days, depending on the intensity of the laser used for treatment.

Are the results permanent?

The results of the treatment are permanent, provided there is good sun protection post-treatment. If one doesn’t follow a skincare routine, there is always a chance of new freckles, as it is caused by genetic predisposition and sun exposure.

What are the post-care instructions following treatment?

The doctor will suggest a basic skincare routine of mild cleanser, sunscreen, and moisturizer. One needs to avoid active ingredient creams for at least a week.

Good sun protection is the most important step in preventing and treating freckles. Prevention Is better than cure in this case.
