Was not sure where to post this..........anyways, does anyone know of a product that reduces sun spots?  I'm starting to get some on my face and do not know what to do.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks... yourock

I don't think you can reverse sun damage with any over the counter products.  But to keep more sun spots from forming, I would wear at least SPF 30 sunscreen everyday.  You could also see a dermatologist and discuss prescription products like RetnaA or Renova.

I so WISH there was something like that out there. I was noticing the big freckles on my hands that look like age spots. OK, I was in a really boring meeting this morning.  giggle I have a couple small sunspots too (fell asleep on the beach in South Beach 2 years ago). Wah! I haven't heard too much about MK even complexion product so I'm not sure if that works at all. If anyone knows anything, please share.....

Actually, you can do something about them.
Combination: use spf every single day; sun exposure will make them worse.
Use a combination of products to help exfoliate the skin and increase cell turnover, and youmight try a product w/ hydroquinone in it, which is used to lighten spots caused by sun damage, etc.
I would recommend paulas choice (no, I'm not paid by her, but should be for how much I recommend their products) b/c she has an array of glycolic (aha) products and a hydroquinone product, etc. her website is very informational and has a question/answer section, I bet you can find info. on ingredients to look for to help w/ your kind of problem. My sister used products w/ the above mentioned ingredients and it worked to fade some of her sunspots/freckles that had appeard over the last couple of years- now she's an avid sunscreen wearer as well. smiley

Even if you don't buy PC products, check out her website for the information and education on ingredients. Also, you can buy samples of products ,but her products are inexpensive anyway.
hope that helps!!
