What age would you have to be to get freckles remove by peels or laser?

Question

Ava T. Shamban, MD · Answer

The effectiveness and safety is equally good in patients 18 or younger compared with the 40+ age group. If parental consent is given, then treatment may commence with the patient's consent as well. Risks of hyperpigmentation and scarring, which are rare, do exist and sun protection pre and post laser hair removal is a must. You must be mature and willing to be fully compliant with these instructions, regardless of age.

Karen Beasley, MD · Answer

Generally, patients over the age of 18 are eligible to undergo chemical peels and laser treatments. However, an in-person consultation with a board-certified dermatologist is strongly recommended in order to discuss each treatment option and determine which one is best for you.
