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.

The zeltiq procedure really changed my life. I am so grateful for having met dr. brightman because of her tremendous help and dedication. No bruises, no redness, no pain, and the staff there made me feel totally comfortable and safe. There was no need to take any pain killers at all. Everything went smooth and dr. brightman was very warm. She is a wonderful doctor, and not just very skilled and caring, but also has a lot of knowledge on fat and cellulite treatments. If you ever consider having a fat removal treatment, then dr. brightman is the best choice.
