If the dark spots are freckles or sun damage related, then we believe the best option is Q-switched ND:Yg lasers. These lasers are powerful enough to remove tattoos and birthmarks and for this reason should not
have a problem removing your spots.

The ideal treatment would be IPL which will remove most dark spots with little discomfort and downtime.
