  • Age spots are a sure sign that your skin has previous sun damage. You can prevent age spots by staying out of the sun during the late morning and early afternoon hours, when the sun's rays do the most damage. Lather up with a sunblock every morning and afternoon, and if you must be out in the sun, wear a hat and cover your skin with clothing.

    If the damage has already occurred, then it is time to have your skin checked by a professional. If your doctor determines that you do have sunspots, there are ways to minimize or lighten their appearance. The videos on this page will give you ideas on how to remove age spots.
