How to Avoid Getting Age Spots

Age spots, also known as liver spots, are common in fair-skinned people over 50 years of
age.

Instructions

• STEP 1: Use sunscreen when you go out, paying particular attention to your face
and hands. Age spots are caused by a lifetime of exposure to the sun, so the
sooner you start wearing sunblock, the less likely it is that you'll get them.
• STEP 2: Make sure you choose a sunscreen that blocks UVA and UVB rays and
has an SPF of at least 15.
• STEP 3: Wear a long-sleeved shirt and wide-brimmed hat when you know you'll
be in the sun.
• STEP 4: Try to minimize exposure to sunlight between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., when
sunlight is strongest.
• STEP 5: Use alpha-hydroxy lotions to keep skin smooth and clear.
