Skin changes with age. As much as one would love to put a hold on the skin’s natural aging process, it is truly impossible. So, to make you feel better here’s what you can do. You can prolong the aging process by using sunscreen daily, partaking in treatments, and being aware of your skin’s needs. At Miami Skin Spa, several treatments are available to suit your skin type.
In the scenario where your skin is aging with wrinkles, sun spots, and dark spots, you name it, Miami Skin Spa can help. In as little as one treatment, all types of skin spots can disappear, making you feel and act young in no time. Here Haute Beauty sat down with Haute Beauty experts at Miami Skin Spa to review the types of skin spots and how to remove them.
Age Spots
Age spots begin with overactive pigment cells. When one exposes their skin to sunlight, melanin produces. After years of sitting in the sun, melanin production will be made in large quantities, resulting in age spots and freckles grouping. Those with lighter skin pigmentation have a higher chance of being affected.
Treatment: Enlighten III Laser
Benefits of Treatment: The Enlighten III has various settings, allowing Miami Skin Spa to tailor a regiment to each person who is undergoing age spot removal.
Downtime: None! Almost all patients choose to return to work and normal activities the next day. You can even put makeup on following the treatment.
Treatment Plan: Varies from individual to individual and is based on the size of the age spot and color.
Side Effects: Skin irritation that feels like a sunburn.

Dark Spots
The two most sun-exposed parts of your body are your face and hands. Dark spots are caused by excessive sun exposure, hence why those areas of your body have the most spots.
Treatment: Topical creams, ointments, and remedies (best for minimal dark spots and prevention), chemical peels and HydraFacial’s, and the Enlighten III Laser treatment (the most effective treatment option).
Benefits of Treatment: The Nano and Picosecond technology allows Miami Skin Spa to customize your laser treatment. The laser also produces collagen and it is quick & easy.
Downtime: None
Treatment Plan: Typically, 3-5 treatments.
Side Effects: Skin irritation that turns into a mild sunburn effect.
Sun Spots
If you spend time in the sun, you’ll most likely have or develop sun spots. This process is impacted solely by sun exposure. If you have light skin pigmentation and sit in the sun, you are more likely to get sun spots on your body.
Treatment: Topical creams, ointments and remedies (best for minimal sun spots and prevention), and laser treatments such as Laser Genesis for Enlighten III.
Benefits of Treatment: Specifically, the Laser Genesis treatment is easy, safe, FDA approved and fast.
Downtime: None
Treatment Plan: Once every four weeks.
Side Effects: Mild sunburn and the area treated may appear swollen. The sun spots will usually darken but then flake off during healing. Results appear within a few days after the first treatment.
