Discover How to Remove Skin Spots: Different Treatments

Skin spots are one of the most common aesthetic concerns. However, not all spots are the same, nor do they require the same treatment. At Clínica Escoda, we offer various personalized options to remove sun spots, treat melasma, eliminate nevi, and address seborrheic keratosis. Below, we explain how to differentiate them and which treatments can help you achieve a more even, radiant complexion.

1) Sun spots

Sun spots, also known as solar lentigines, are small brown patches that appear on the skin due to prolonged sun exposure. They are commonly found on the face, hands, décolletage, and other exposed areas.

At Clínica Escoda, we use IPL laser (intense pulsed light), an advanced technology that targets skin pigmentation and effectively removes skin spots, restoring an even tone and improving skin quality.

2) Melasma

Melasma is a form of hyperpigmentation that primarily affects women, often due to hormonal changes, such as during and after pregnancy. However, in some cases, it can also occur without a clear hormonal cause. It can appear on all skin types, although individuals with darker skin tones are more prone to developing melasma.

It typically appears as a symmetric patch of skin discoloration, forming plaques due to an increased concentration of melanin.

To treat melasma, we use the Dermamelan depigmenting treatment, which effectively reduces dark spots. One of the key advantages of Dermamelan is that, in addition to eliminating melasma-related pigmentation, it significantly improves overall skin quality, leaving it brighter, more even, and beautifully radiant.

3) Nevus or Moles

Nevi, commonly known as moles, are small brown or black bumps that can appear anywhere on the body. While most are benign, some may be bothersome or aesthetically undesirable.

At Clínica Escoda, we use CO2 laser technology to safely and precisely remove nevi, leaving no visible scars.

4) Seborrheic Keratosis

Seborrheic keratosis is a benign skin lesion with a raised texture and a brown or black color, commonly appearing on the face, chest, and back. While it does not pose a health risk, many people choose to remove it for aesthetic reasons.

CO2 laser is the best option for removing seborrheic keratosis, as it works selectively without damaging the surrounding skin, leaving a smooth and even finish.

5) Pink Spots: Spider Veins, Cherry Angiomas, Rosacea, and Redness

Pinkish skin spots can result from various conditions, such as spider veins, cherry angiomas, rosacea, or diffuse redness. These issues affect the circulation of small blood vessels, leading to a reddish skin tone.

IPL laser is the ideal treatment for these types of spots, as it targets dilated blood vessels, reducing redness and improving overall skin tone uniformity.

If you’re looking to effectively and safely remove skin spots, Clínica Escoda offers personalized treatments tailored to each type of pigmentation. Whether you want to eliminate sun spots, treat melasma, remove nevi, or reduce seborrheic keratosis, we use advanced technology such as CO2 laser, IPL, and depigmenting treatments to help you achieve smoother, more radiant, and healthier skin.
