This is an article where we’re going to present you some of the best tips and tricks on how to eliminate them. You just need several ingredients that you already have at home!
What can cause the appearance of age spots?
In case you aren’t an older person and you still have brown spots, they can also appear because of UV rays and too much exposure to direct sunlight. It’s very important that you have a good UV protection on you or use a safe tanning bed.
Melanin appears in our body faster the more we stay out in the sun. This is what makes our skin darker and with brown color.
If you have brown spots on some areas, it will mean that the melanin has reacted the most in those areas.
Can these spots harm your health?
You need to be careful about some things, because these can be really dangerous:
Observe any age spot you have to notice any change in their color;
Make sure you see any strange borders around them;
Any spot which is changing or growing should be prioritized;

You can also use the “ABCDE’s of Melanoma” test to help you.
