Pigmented Lesions
Removal
Aging, the elements, genetics and other factors can be detrimental to
anyone's complexion. With time, the skin can be damaged, resulting in
unsightly lesions that are difficult to hide.
What are pigmented lesions?
Pigmented lesions are concentrations of melanin in the skin. They can
be of any size or shape and may also be slightly elevated on the
skin's surface. Some of the most common of all pigmented lesions are
freckles, solar lentigines (liver spots and sun spots) and cafe au
lait spots. These are all considered to be benign. Freckles are most
commonly the result of genetics or sun exposure. Freckles caused by
sunburns have irregular borders and are typically darker brown than
those that are caused by genetics. Solar lentigines are usually caused
by excessive sun exposure, therefore they appear on areas of the body
that are frequently exposed to the sun such as the face, hands,
shoulders and arms. They can be of any color from light brown to
black. Cafe au lait spots are light brown, flat and larger in size
than other types of pigmented lesions. They are usually classified as
a type of birthmark because they exist at birth. However, some may
appear with age or with the development of the disease
neurofibromatosis. Cafe au lait spots that appear as an indication of
neurofibromatosis are generally larger and appear at a greater
frequency on the body (totaling more than 6).
Is it safe to treat the lesions?
We strongly encourage you to have your doctor examine any spot that is
questionable and we will not treat any lesion that we feel is not safe
to do so.
