You have probably been trying different methods to remove age spots from your face and other parts of your body without much success. Let's first look at how you got them in the first place then we can look at ways of removing them.

Age spots are induced by the sun. You will see them on the shoulders, back, neck face and hands where you probably have had significant exposure to the sun. They are more common in older persons, however sometimes they start manifesting themselves from as early as in your twenties.

If you are one of those persons who love sun worshipping then you will get age spots later in life. The UV rays of the sun causes tanning of the skin. The more time you spend in the sun you will have more melanin pigments being deposited in your skin which will eventually lead to unhealthy skin.

They are usually harmless and they don't normally become skin cancer. However because some skin cancers known as melanoma does look a lot like age spots you should examine these spots to ensure they are indeed age spots.

There are ways to remove age spots that you might want to consider, however check with your dermatologist before doing any procedure.

Bleaching creams are available which some people use, however I do not recommend them as most of them contain hydroquinone which can be harmful to your skin.

Chemical peels: This is another treatment that is available. However this removes the top layer of your skin which can lead to irritation and scarring. Chemical Peels require time for your skin to recover and you have to stay completely out of the sun for several days until your skin is healed.

Laser Resurfacing: This is where laser beam lights are applied to the affected areas and the top layer is burnt off. Again this requires time for the skin to heal, is costly.

Microdermabrasion: A brush like tool is used to remove the top layer of the skin exposing the secondary layer. This will take time to heal and the skin will be very sensitive until it is completely healed. You have to stay out of the sun for some time until you are advised that it is safe.

I have found a rather safe and effective method of removing these spots which in my estimation is very effective. It is a natural age spot remover that works to not only remove your age spots but also reduce the appearance of your wrinkles and fine lines and give your skin an overall new appearance.

Extrapone Nutgrass is one of the ingredients in this powerful treatment to remove age spots. Because Extrapone Nutgrass is a natural melanin inhibitor it protects your skin from developing any more spots.

It is always best to use natural methods as it will provide you with the best and safest results.
