The Patient's Guide to Freckles Removal

The Patient's Guide to Freckles is one of the most respected publications providing information about ephelides or freckles, and freckle removal. Our mission is to provide you with information about freckles, as well as potential freckle removal treatments. The information published on Freckles.org is written and provided by some of America's foremost dermatologists and laser surgery experts. Information provided by individuals on Freckles.org should be considered opinion and cannot replace the advice of and consultation with a physician, but can be educational and help inform you.

Doctor Supervised Freckle Removal Providers

The goal of the Patient's Guide to Freckles is to provide quality information about freckles and their cause, as well as a list of physicians who offer treatment for freckles near you. It is important to have any brown spots checked by a dermatologist as they can be cancerous. If a dermatologist determines they are not cancerous, you may then decide to have them removed. The best option is, and always has been, to consult with a physician with the experience and knowledge of the skin to treat you. These professionals are the most likely to give you the range of options available to you and help you form a treatment course which will give you results you can be satisfied with. To find a board-certified physician offering freckle removal, you may use our Find a Doctor locator service.

Freckles and Treatment

Freckles are a nuisance to some, cute to others. This website was launched to help those interested in learning more about freckles understand what causes them, how to prevent them, and what treatments are available to remove them. For many of us freckles are a way for our skin to let us know that we have received a little too much sun. By being out in the sun our skin creates these little pockets of melanin, which we call "freckles". We hope you find our site useful and informative.
