Age Spots Are NOT Normal Aging

You have in your skin melanin. Melanin is a pigment that comes from a certain cell called a melanocyte. This pigment basically is a protective umbrella to protect you against certain things from the sun like ultraviolet light and free radicals. So it's there to protect you. This is why when you're out in the sun, you eventually get a sun tan or your skin becomes darker because it adapts and it's protecting you.When you see this darker patch on your skin, realize that is a protective mechanism. The problem is not melanin. The problem is uneven melanin production. It's not evened out through the skin. It's only in certain spots. So these little factories that produce melanin are producing them unevenly. The regulator in that cell is broken.
