Sun Spot in Hongdae – Fade Sun Damage & Restore Even Skin Tone
Bothered by brown patches or dark spots caused by sun exposure? Sun spots (also called age spots or solar lentigines) are one of the most common signs of UV damage, but they can be safely and effectively treated. At our expert clinic in Hongdae, we offer advanced, customized sun spot treatments designed to fade discoloration, smooth skin tone, and restore a more youthful complexion.
What Are Sun Spots?
Sun spots are flat, brown or tan spots that develop on areas frequently exposed to sunlight—such as the face, hands, chest, and shoulders. Caused by UV-induced melanin overproduction, they tend to increase with age and cumulative sun exposure.
Unlike freckles, sun spots don’t fade with seasonal changes and can gradually darken over time if left untreated. While harmless, they can be cosmetically bothersome and make the skin appear older or uneven.
Why Treat Sun Spots Professionally?
Key Benefits:
✅ Precisely targets and lightens pigmentation
✅ Smooths uneven skin tone and texture
✅ Safe, non-invasive treatment options
✅ Quick sessions with minimal to no downtime

Over-the-counter products may not penetrate deeply enough—professional treatments provide faster, more reliable results.
Most Effective Sun Spot Treatments We Offer
Our Hongdae clinic offers tailored treatments to safely and effectively fade sun spots for all skin types:
- Laser Toning (Q-Switched Nd:YAG) – Breaks up melanin deposits and brightens tone
- Pico Laser – Delivers ultra-fast pulses to precisely shatter pigmentation
- IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) – Targets sun-induced discoloration and redness

We’ll select the most suitable method based on your skin type, pigmentation depth, and treatment goals.
What to Expect During Treatment
Most sun spot treatments take 20 to 40 minutes. Lasers and IPL may cause mild warmth or tingling, with numbing cream provided if necessary. Treated spots may temporarily darken before flaking off within 3 to 7 days—a normal part of the fading process.
There may be mild redness or dryness afterward, but downtime is minimal, and you can return to most daily activities right away.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
You may benefit from sun spot removal if:
- You have flat, dark spots from sun exposure
- You’re seeking a clearer, more even skin tone
- You want fast, medical-grade results
- You’re in good general health and not pregnant or breastfeeding
- You are committed to using daily SPF to maintain results
Treatment is safe for both men and women and can be tailored for fair to medium-dark skin tones.
How Long Do Results Last?
Many patients see visible improvement after just one session, with optimal results typically achieved after 2 to 4 treatments spaced 3–4 weeks apart. Long-term results can be maintained with sun protection and occasional maintenance treatments every few months if needed.
