Hello,
Treatment of these brown spots depends on its cause. It can be due to solar lentigo ot melasma as well. Treatment options include treatment with vitamin C and hydrocortisone, peel with carbon dioxide snow and alexandrite and ND-Yag Q-Switched laser treatment preceded by a hydroquinone-based application. Please discuss these options with your dermatologist.
