Age spots — also called sun spots or liver spots — are one of the most common signs of skin aging.
They usually appear on the hands, face, shoulders, and arms as a result of years of sun exposure and natural changes in pigmentation.
While harmless, many people wish to reduce or remove them to restore a smoother, more youthful complexion.
The good news? You don’t need expensive treatments or harsh chemicals.
Nature offers powerful, safe, and affordable alternatives — and sometimes, all it takes is just one drop of the right oil.
🌿 What Are Age Spots and Why Do They Appear?
Age spots are flat, brown, gray, or black marks that develop on skin areas most exposed to sunlight over the years.
Their appearance is linked to several factors, including:
-
☀️ UV damage from sun or tanning beds
-
⏳ Natural skin aging and slower cell renewal
-
🌸 Hormonal changes, especially in women
-
🧬 Genetic predisposition and family history
They aren’t dangerous — but they can make the skin look older or duller than it really is.
