About Freckles

Freckles are tiny flat spots of extra pigmentation on your skin. These are the clusters of concentrated melanin, the pigment responsible for giving the color to skin, hair, and eyes. Freckles are usually harmless and appear as flat, light to brown colored spots that may appear as a single spot or as a group. Freckles are especially prevalent in those with fair skin and red hair. They can also show up in children as young as one or two years old. Although they are most commonly found on the face, these may also appear on the shoulders, arms, chest, and back. Most freckles are usually uniform in color and slightly darker than the surrounding skin. These may be reddish, yellow, tan, light brown, brown, or black. After being exposed to the sun, they could get darker and more noticeable, and during the winter, they might get lighter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can freckles be treated permanently?

Freckles can not be permanently removed, although several treatment options, such as freckles laser treatment​, chemical peels, and cryotherapy, have successfully treated and reduced the appearance of freckles. 

 

 

 

 

What are the home remedies for freckles on face treatment?

Applying fresh aloe vera gel, consuming green tea, lemon juice, applying sunscreen regularly, wearing protective clothing when going out in the sun, etc., are a few of the effective home remedies that offer a safe treatment for the freckles on the face. 

Which chemical offers the best Freckle removal Treatment?

Depending on an individual’s condition, several effective options, such as hydroquinone, retinoids, kojic acids, etc., can be used to treat the freckles. There is no single best chemical. 

Are Freckles on Face Permanent?

Although several treatments can help lighten and reduce the appearance of freckles, it is not possible to remove them permanently. These tiny spots are quite common and extremely harmless. 

How do Freckles Develop?

The overproduction of melanin causes the development of freckles. Melanin is the pigment responsible for the color of your skin, hair, and eyes, or “complexion.” Melanocytes are the skin cells responsible for the production of melanin, which absorbs and reflects ultraviolet light (UV) to shield your skin from sun damage. When exposed to sunlight, melanocytes in people with light or fair complexions produce more melanin. Freckles are more likely to appear than tanning.

Freckles Causes​

  • Genetics. The development of freckles is mostly determined by genetics. You are more likely to get freckles if your parents or grandparents had them. Freckles are more common in those who have a variation of the MC1R gene.
  • Exposure to the Sun. Freckles are primarily caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. To prevent UV damage, your skin produces more melanin when exposed to sunshine, which results in the development of freckles. Freckles may deepen and become more noticeable with frequent, unprotected exposure.
  • Skin Type. People with fair skin contain less melanin and are most likely to get freckles. However, these can also appear in people with darker complexion, though they may not be very noticeable.
  • Hormonal Changes. Hormonal changes during pregnancy, puberty, or while taking birth control pills increase the synthesis of melanin and cause the development of freckles. 

At Pristyn Care Delhi, our highly expert and specialized team of dermatologists ensures addressing the pigmentation issues with minimal scarring and skin discoloration. Book an appointment today for more understanding. 

Types of Freckles

  • Ephelides

These are the usual, temporary freckles that appear when you go outside in the sun. People with light colored skin are more likely to get them, and if your parents have them, you will likely get them too. You can be more susceptible to them if your hair is naturally red or blond. In the summer, when you’re exposed to more sunlight, freckles tend to appear and darken, and in the winter, when there is less sunlight, they tend to disappear.

  • Solar Lentigines

These are the sunspots, which are also caused by the sun, and are usually larger and don’t fade away. As your skin ages, their visibility increases, therefore they are also referred to as age spots. Repeated sun exposure causes sun spots to darken and may show up in clusters, which increases their visibility. They are common in fair-skinned as well as dark-skinned people and are more prevalent beyond the age of 40. Unlike age spots, freckles require proper care and prevention.
