When you first begin noticing brown spots on your skin, it may not seem like such a big deal. Brown spots are simply a change in pigmentation and do not necessarily reflect a risk of skin cancer or any other health problems. However, as you age, you will notice that brown spots get darker and closer together.
As skin spots compound it becomes more difficult for laser treatments to effectively penetrate the damaged skin. This means that repeated treatments may be required to see results, or you may have to live with some brown spots permanently.
There are several causes of brown spots on the skin. Sun exposure, certain medications, hormones, and simple genetics can all contribute to the brown spots, also called “sun spots.” A brown spot is an area of skin with either a higher number of pigment cells (called “melanocytes”) or an increased number of pigment molecules (called “melanin”) located within the melanocyte.
Some excess melanin rests in the epidermis – the top layer of your skin – and some resides deeper in the dermis. Because of this, brown spots are really a diverse group of skin issues and require different lightening treatments.
*All patients are unique and individual results may vary.
Lasers and Intense Pulsed Light devices remove brown spots on your face and patches from the skin by selectively targeting the melanin and melanocyte, leaving other skin cells intact. This is why laser brown spot removal is the safest and most effective treatment choice for removing this type of skin damage from the body.
Lasers have dramatically advanced the way we treat skin issues, and certain lasers have been designed to just remove brown spots. The skin treatment for brown spots is a quick office-based procedure, requires no anesthesia, and usually takes 15 minutes to an hour, depending on the size, color, and depth of the spot, as well as the number of spots to be treated.
Ideal candidates for laser brown spot removal include:
While there is no medical imperative to have dark spots removed, many people want brown spots on their skin to go away to preserve their skin tone. The best time to begin treatment is when you start noticing that the dark spots are affecting the appearance of your skin and beginning to build up. Using a laser for brown spots during the early stages will maximize your results and give you more time to protect your skin from further sun damage.
You will need to speak to a laser treatment specialist who can assess your dark spots and determine whether or not they are suitable for laser treatment. Since the laser is absorbed by the dark spots and does not tend to penetrate the lighter skin, it is possible that some of your spots may be too light for treatment at first.
If you’ve begun noticing brown spots on your face, hands or shoulders, you probably already know that you want to seek treatment in the near future. The sooner you undergo a laser treatment, the better your results are likely to be. If you put off treatment for too long, you may find that a single laser treatment is not enough to fully remove the appearance of spots.

Brown spots, also called sun spots or age spots, are caused by factors like sun exposure, hormonal changes, or aging. At the Miami Center for Plastic Surgery, Dr. Gabriel Salloum provides treatments tailored to address these pigmentation concerns and restore a more even skin tone.
Most patients report minimal discomfort during the procedure, which Dr. Gabriel Salloum ensures is as comfortable as possible. His Miami clinic offers a relaxing environment, and numbing creams can be applied if needed for added comfort.
You may see some improvement after just one session, but optimal results usually appear after a few weeks as the body processes the pigment. Multiple sessions may be recommended depending on the severity of the spots.
Treatments performed by Dr. Salloum in Miami require minimal downtime. You might experience slight redness or darkening of the treated spots initially, but most patients resume their daily activities immediately after the session.
