Age spots.

I have quite a lot of these on my lower arms mostly but a few on my hands too.

Apart from having professional laser treatment I wondered if there was any way of getting rid of them.

Does anybody else have them?

Re: Age spots.

Oh I know Carol my hands are awful I hate them . I did hear about some Avon cream that helped but I honestly can't be bothered now . Mind you I'm tanned at the moment so they look alright .

I think they look like my mothers hands !

Re: Age spots.

I haven't got many at all, and the ones I have are very feint so don't bother me. Sorry Carol, I'm not much help am I.

All I can suggest is, I believe there are bleaching creams available, but you'd have to google it and read up on it.

I have more than you. Also got them on my arms. They don't bother me as I am old anyway.

How do you know that? - this isn't my picture.
