According to Cynosure, the maker of the Smart Lipo laser, Dr. Schlosser is one of the busiest and most experienced Smart Lipo surgeons in the state of Colorado. He frequently hosts other doctors at the Institute and is a speaker on Smart Lipo for Cynosure in the Western U.S.
Many find freckles, or ‘ephelides’ as they are called in dermatology, cute. Often they are harmless little brown specks around our nose or cheeks. They are the result of sun exposure and an attempt by our skin to respond to this exposure by packaging melanin pigment to absorb the ultraviolet rays of the sun. Unfortunately in skin that has developed freckles our skin has not packaged this melanin properly and this is displayed as a ‘freckle’.
Removing freckles is a fairly straightforward process and laser treatment is highly effective for treating them. You should see a dermatologist before having any brown spots removed as they may have the potential to be cancerous. A dermatologist can check them to be sure they can be safely removed.
