Brown spots and lasers
Laser and intense pulsed light therapy is probably best for brown spots. They may fade substantially but I caution against expecting complete erasure of skin blemishes.

A consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon can help you assess your options.

IPL for brown spots and wrinkles of the chest

I find that after a series of 3-5 treatments on the chest, the texture of the skin improves as well as the color. It is also a reasonably priced procedure with a great safety record.
Hope that helps!
