Hands Brown Spots Treatment
What is Solar Lentigo (Brown Spots)?
Solar lentigines, commonly referred to as sunspots or brown spots, are flat, brown, or black spots that typically appear on areas of the skin that are frequently exposed to the sun. While they are benign and not a cause for medical concern, they can be a cosmetic issue for many, especially when they appear on visible areas like the hands.
Why Do Solar Lentigines Appear on the Hands?
The hands are one of the most exposed areas of our body, often subject to sun damage over the years. The cumulative effect of UV exposure leads to the formation of solar lentigines, making the skin on the hands appear aged and uneven.

Aftercare Treatment
Proper aftercare is essential to ensure the best results and avoid potential side effects:
- Immediate Post-Treatment Care: After the procedure, you may experience some redness or irritation on the treated area. A cold compress or soothing repair cream can help alleviate discomfort.
- Sun Protection: Protect your hands from direct sunlight for at least two weeks post-treatment. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher regularly.
- Healing Process: Some crusting may occur on the treated spots, which will naturally fall off within one to two weeks. Avoid picking at the area to prevent scarring.
