I want to remove freckles from my face and
a scar. Its a red sunken scar so I think
collagen injections would help it. Am I
right thinking my dentist can perform this
and most importantly does anyone know how
much roughly it will cost.

Hii Mrniceguy!!!
Quote:
Freckles are
small tan spots of melanin on the skin of
people with fair complexions...Having
freckles is genetic and is related to the
presence of the melanocortin-1 receptor
MC1R gene variant, which is dominant.
Freckling can also be triggered by long
exposure to sunlight, such as suntanning.
When the sun's rays penetrate the skin,
they activate melanocytes which can cause
freckles to become darker and more
numerous, although the distribution of
melanin is not the same. Fair hair such as
blonde, or more commonly red hair, are
usually common with the genetic factor of
freckles, but none so much as fair or pale
skin.
Freckles are predominantly found on the
face, although they may appear on any skin
exposed to the
sun.
If you want to remove it , you have to do
it in a specialised Dermatology Hospital,
I would advise you to visit this site:
[link removed] you will get all the
information you are looking for.
I don't think that a dentist would be the
most appropriate person to do this so
think well before taking a step and be
well-informed by specialist.
Good Luck!!
