Answer: Chemical Peel for Age Spots
Chemical peels are a great option for aging spots on the face. As others have mentioned, a TCA peel will help remove the age or sun spot to create a more rejuvenated appearance. The depth of peel varies with the concentration, among other factors. TCA peel treatments may need to be repeated, as necessary. Speak with a plastic surgeon or dermatologist to determine the appropriate option for you, and follow their pre and post peel instructions.

Answer: Removing age spots on hand/face
30 to 50% TCA gives a better result for a year but will need to be repeated. Also ILP laser can improve. AHA for lip fine lines is OK but use a named product like Restylane or Juvederm.
