Age Spots
Age spots, liver spots or sun spots are patches of dark skin that occur naturally as a result of ageing. They usually appear in places most exposed to the sun like the face, arms, hands and shoulders.
They reflect the effect UV light has on our skin. When we’re young, our body is able to reproduce cells that deal with environmental damage like UV light well. As we age, this ability weakens.
You don’t need to have spent excessive time in the sun to develop age spots as they’re a natural part of the human life cycle. However, they can be exasperated by too much sun or even artificially produced UV light like sunbeds.
The appearance of age spots affects how you may carry yourself. They can make you appear older than you are which could in turn lower your self-esteem.
There is something you can do about it. Here at Define Clinic, we can provide you with Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment and you can regain your confidence once again.

reviewed onDr Dhillon is the only doctor I trust with any treatments I require. Having had botox for many years – not undertaken by Dr Dhillon I now see the results and benefits having him undertake the procedure. I highly recommend him.

reviewed onI had Botox treatment for the first time ever back in 2021, with Dr Teuta Berisha. I have since gone back twice for a top-up and will remain a loyal client of hers. I am very picky and (understandably) selective with my face, but Dr Berisha made me so comfortable and her attention to detail is to be praised. She is a perfectionist and really cares for her clients. I’m really pleased with the results. I couldn’t recommend her enough!
