Hi, I'm Kelli. I'm an aesthetician and make up artist at Ulta Salon and Cosmetics and
I'm going to give you some tips on how you can get rid of skin spots. A lot of your skin
spots are usually caused from UV damage, from just over-exposure from the sun, or that can
be caused by age or medication. A couple things that you can do are you can get a good chemical
peel that can help exfoliate a lot of that dead, damaged skin on the surface and actually
lighten up the appearance of those spots. A lot of those peels have alpha-hydroxy acids
in them which help to dissolve dead and damaged skin cells and bring healthy skin cells to
the surface. Another thing you can do is to get a brightening solution such as this. This
is a concentrated spot treatment. It actually has pearl essence in it and you can see just
from putting it on my hand, how much it's lightening up that spot where I put, put it
on my hand. So over time, consistently using this, is going to help break up that discolored
area and help to lighten it up. Another thing that you can do is to get a lightening gel.
You can get these either with hydroquinone which is a skin lightening agent or with out
hyroquinone. Your ones without hydroquinone are going to have azelaic acid or licorice
root which are botanically skin lightening agents. So those are some things that you
can do to lighten skin spots.
