Every time I looked in the mirror, I started to worry about the freckles that were forming around my eyes and cheeks. At first, they weren't that bad, so I didn't think much of them, but as they got darker, makeup couldn't completely hide them, and I started to feel stressed. Is anyone else struggling with freckles like I am? My freckles have gotten worse, so I've been researching various ways to get rid of them and home care methods. I heard that in severe cases, freckle laser treatment can help.

So today, I'm going to tell you one by one about the causes of freckles, how to get rid of them, how to prevent them, and what laser treatments are available for freckles!

1. Causes of freckles

According to medical information from Seoul National University Hospital, freckles are small, yellow-brown pigmented spots that appear on sun-exposed areas. They most commonly appear on the upper body, such as the cheeks or upper arms.

 

1) Genetic predisposition

First of all, it is said that freckles have a genetic predisposition. It is known to be related to mutations in the melanocortin-1 receptor gene.

 

2) UV rays

UV rays are also said to cause freckles. They say that UV rays stimulate the skin's melanin pigment, and as melanin synthesis increases, freckles can develop.

2. Freckle Management and Prevention

I'll also tell you how to remove freckles at home and how to prevent them.

 

1) UV protection

The most important factor in preventing and managing freckles is UV protection. It's crucial to apply sunscreen thoroughly when going outside, and to develop the habit of reapplying every two hours. It's also recommended to use physical protection like hats and parasols when going out.

2) Consume foods containing vitamin C

While no specific food will directly eliminate freckles, eating fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C, which inhibits melanin production, may help manage freckles.

 

3) Use whitening ampoule

It's said that using a whitening ampoule to manage freckles can also be helpful. Meladuce Brightening Ampoule contains ingredients that help whiten the skin and can help with melanin care.

3. Freckle laser treatment

If you have severe freckles that are causing you stress, you may want to consider freckle laser treatment.

 

1) IPL

If you are concerned about pigmentation such as freckles or liver spots, you can receive IPL.

Please note that the price of Maypure IPL is 20,000 won per session.

2) Pico laser

Pico lasers are another option for freckle laser treatments. Pico lasers use picosecond pulses to minimize damage to surrounding tissue. They are used to treat not only freckles but also melasma, blemishes, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

The price for the Maypure Pico Toning event is 40,000 won per session, and you can receive the treatment for 9,000 won on your first visit!

3) Meladuse Skin Booster

Additionally, while it's not a laser treatment for freckles, I'll also introduce a skin booster that helps tone and brighten the skin. Meladuce Skin Booster is said to help improve freckles and dark spots by suppressing melanin production and regulating melanin synthesis.

Please note that the price for the Maypure Meladuce event is 120,000 won per session, and the price for the first visit event is 89,000 won per session!

4. Freckle Laser Post-treatment Care

Even after receiving laser freckle treatment, meticulous care is crucial. First and foremost, it's crucial to thoroughly apply regenerative cream and sunscreen. Also, scabs may form after IPL treatment, and these should not be removed manually.

5. Q&A

1) How can I tell the difference between freckles and spots?

: Freckles are usually large, irregular spots with clear borders, while dark spots are scattered and have clear borders.

 

2) Do freckles naturally disappear as you age?

: While some cases may fade as adults, they rarely disappear completely. Therefore, regular prevention and management are important.

 

3) Are freckles hereditary?

: Genetic factors play a significant role in freckles. However, in addition to genetic predisposition, factors such as UV exposure and lifestyle habits can also affect the darkening of freckles.
