Sun spots, age spots and hydroquinone
If I have used hydroquinone directly on age spots, which has only stung and made them darker. Have I damaged my skin? Can I do laser to remove the spots? What would you recommend?

It sounds like you have sensitivity to the HQ. You can stop the HQ and the
irritation should improve. You can do the IPL to improve your age spots.
