Sun spots, also known as age and liver spots, are lesions that are flat, tan, brown, or dark brown spots on sun-exposed skin. As people age, sun spots most commonly appear on the backs of the hands, the forearms, neck, chest, and face. Sun spots are associated with cumulative sun exposure. The pigment producing cells in the skin are activated to produce more pigment by ultraviolet rays. While these spots are not themselves cancerous, you may be at risk for skin cancer if you have them.

As we age our lips tend to become thinner and lose volume causing a pursed, thinner and unfriendly appearance. Diminution of lips leads to loss of definition of the lip border and a flattened contour. The development of upper and lower lip wrinkles further impair definition of the lip border and often cause "bleeding" of lipstick. Other factors such as the normal aging process, sun exposure, genetics, smoking and pursing of the lips while talking may contribute to more advanced wrinkles and loss of definition of the lip. Treatments now offset these issues.
