About Sun Spots & Dark Spots
What You Should Know
Years of Texas sun add up. Sun spots, age spots and freckling show up when skin overproduces pigment in response to UV exposure — most often on the face, chest, shoulders and backs of the hands.
At LEMON + LEIGH in Boyd, we use the 755nm Alexandrite wavelength on our Motus laser — one of the gold-standard wavelengths for pigmentation — along with MoveoGlo, CoolPeel and professional peels to fade spots and even out your tone.

Questions & Answers
Sun Spots & Dark Spots FAQs
What is the best treatment for sun spots?
For distinct sun spots and age spots, laser pigmentation correction with the 755nm Alexandrite wavelength is one of the most effective options on lighter to medium skin tones. MoveoGlo, CoolPeel and chemical peels help with widespread sun damage and uneven tone.
How many sessions does it take to remove sun spots?
Many clients see meaningful improvement after a single session. Deeper or more widespread pigmentation typically needs 2 to 4 treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart.
What happens to sun spots after laser?
Treated spots usually darken slightly for a few days — that means the pigment is responding. They then flake off naturally over 1 to 2 weeks, revealing more even skin.
Can you treat dark spots on my chest and hands?
Yes. Sun spots on the face, neck, chest and hands are some of the most common areas we treat.
Can laser make melasma worse?
Melasma is hormonally driven and can occasionally flare with laser energy. Your provider will check your pigmentation type at your consultation and recommend the safest approach, which may combine peels and skincare.
How do I keep sun spots from coming back?
Daily broad-spectrum SPF is the most important step, along with brightening skincare and occasional maintenance sessions.
