Beauty Gizmos That Really Work

Whitening Pen for Your Face?

If you'd like to see your age spots do a slow fade, these mess-free pens were made for you. They contain retinol or naturally derived extracts that can work to lighten hyperpigmentation. Apply the serum to the spot twice a day; you should see an effect after a couple of months. If patience isn't your thing, a dermatologist can prescribe a topical cream (like Tri-Luma) that contains hydroquinone. Used once a day, it will erase the spot in a few weeks.
