01
What it is
Freckles are small, flat areas of increased pigmentation that commonly appear on sun-exposed areas such as the face, nose, shoulders and arms.
They are often influenced by genetics and may become darker or more noticeable after sun exposure. Although freckles are usually harmless, some people choose treatment when they want a more even-looking complexion.
02
What may influence your freckles?
Freckles can become more or less visible depending on genetics, sun exposure and individual skin characteristics.
Some people naturally develop freckles more easily because of inherited pigmentation patterns.
Ultraviolet exposure can stimulate melanin production and make freckles appear darker.
Freckles are often more visible in lighter skin tones, although they may occur across different skin types.
Freckles may become more prominent during periods of greater sun exposure and appear lighter at other times.
The nose and upper cheeks are common areas where freckles are most noticeable.
Freckles may also develop on the shoulders, arms and other sun-exposed areas.
Who it’s not for
Certain situations may require treatment to be delayed, modified or medically reviewed first.
Active skin infection, inflammation or open wounds in the treatment area
Recent sunburn or significant skin irritation
Recent aggressive laser, peel or resurfacing treatment
Pregnancy or breastfeeding when a proposed procedure or product may not be suitable
Pigmented spots that are changing rapidly in size, shape, colour or appearance and require medical evaluation first
This list isn’t exhaustive. Your dermatologist will assess your skin, pigmentation and medical history before recommending an appropriate treatment plan.
03
What to expect
Pigmentation assessment
Your dermatologist examines the freckles, skin tone, distribution and any other pigmentation concerns present.
Personalised treatment planning
A suitable approach is selected according to your skin type, freckle pattern and treatment goals.
Sun protection & maintenance
Because UV exposure can make freckles more noticeable, sun protection is an important part of maintaining improvement.
04
Physician note
Freckles are usually harmless, but not every brown spot on the skin is a freckle. Sun spots, melasma and other pigmentation concerns can sometimes look similar.
At Averah, we first assess the pattern and appearance of the pigmentation before recommending treatment.
