Summer is a magical time when we gather the best memories. Our skin does the same. UV rays act like a pen, leaving marks in the DNA of skin cells therefore damaging them. The result? Stories written in the form of hyperpigmentation. The most common among them are sun spots.

What exactly is a sun spot?
Quite simply: it’s a cluster of melanin (our natural pigment) that accumulates between the cells in the epidermis due to UV exposure. Sun spots are usually harmless, but caution – some pigment changes that look similar may actually be a sign of skin cancer. This is why it’s important to have every new or changing pigment lesion examined by your family doctor or dermatologist.

How do we remove them?
The good news is that most sun spots can be removed. Autumn and winter are the ideal seasons to do it. At Medicina Volovec, we have for many years been the only clinic in the wider region with a Q-switched laser – the ultimate eraser for pigment. In most cases, spots disappear after just 1–3 sessions. ✨

The procedure is quick, safe and almost painless, leaving the skin fresh, even and radiant. Results can be enhanced and maintained with chemical peels, mesotherapy and other laser treatments. You can also watch the procedure on our Instagram profile.

So, if freckles bother you, now is the perfect time to remove them. Let your summer memories be about sweet kisses, wild parties and family bliss – not spots on your skin. 😉
