Hi, I have freckle on my cheeks and nose. Is there any way that they can be removed? I heard that by using electricity or freezing method or lazer treatment may be able to remove them, is that true? Thank you very much.
Answer -----------------------
Too many questions to answer without seeing you. There are some ways to lighten some brown spots (but others should be biopsied first). Freezing and lasers and chemical treatments might all be options, but you really need to be seen by a dermatologist with the ability to use some of these modalities. Sorry I can't be of more help, but brown spots should be addressed.
