Ephelides (Freckles)

Ephelides (Freckles)Freckles are common and usually a hereditary skin blemish. Though freckles are often thought of as attractive, some people do seek out treatment to reduce them.

Ephelides (Freckles) are tanned macules found on the skin but can be classed as a form of hyperpigmentation. They are usually multiple in number. With sun exposure, they become more apparent; therefore, in the winter months, they are often imperceptible. Although freckles are predominantly benign, they may be seen in association with systemic disease.

Ephelides are more commonly found in fair-skinned races with red or blonde hair and less commonly in individuals, of other races.

We have a number of treatments and products that can really improve the look of freckles. We usually use either cosmelan, obagi or danne depending on your skin and how severe your pigmentation is. Our clinicians will recommend the best treatment to combat your freckles. View our gallery to see the results we achieve.
