freckles

[plbunni417]

when do freckles go away i mean people say i would look so hot if i didnt have freckles and i cant stand them i hate them and i dont have alot of them but enough, is there any way to get rid of them faster

I was under the impression that freckles are for life. I think you get them from being in the sun? so maybe using sunscreen when you are out to prevent any more appearing might help.

They do tend to disappear as you get older. I am so old that mine have now all gone. I would love them back, they look so lovely and most men love them.

I have freckles and hated them when I was younger.Now they dont seem so obvious, maybe I've just got used to them.I think I've just got more comfortable with how I look and accept they are part of me.I actually like it when they become more prominent in the summer.They stop you from looking bland, and lots have men have commented on how cute they are.Enjoy that they are part of you and make you different from eveyone else.

Sorry plbunni417, but yes they are there to stay although they do appear less obvious in time as the others have said.

I have lots of freckles too (and they have definitely faded with time) but I have always loved them because they are very distinctive - they stand out and make you unique-looking. Maybe that's why you don't like them, but I think it's a plus.

If people say you would look so hot without freckles then you already look hot! I'm with bunny & zgma - they do look cute & if I were you I'd start using that to my advantage...

Freckles rock! They make your face more interesting, and are like little beauty spots everywhere! Whoever told you that you'd look hot without freckles is not a very nice person...I say embrace them, you're lucky to have them!

Exactly! I love my freckles - I don't see the sun often enough to get them at this point...... The only ones I don't enjoy so much are the ones I get across the bridge of my nose - I get them first out of all my sun-induced freckles, and they tend to look like a streak of dirt at first! Still - wouldn't trade them for the world. They add to my uniqueness (if that's a word.....)

 

But, if you're not convinced; sunscreen is the only way to go.....what you've already got may fade, but you have to avoid the sun from now on.

Good luck either way!

..and, as a freckled girl myself, I reckon they make you look really healthy!

[forget it]

you can get them removed w/ laser treatment. its kinda expensive and takes about a week or so to heal. they will come back though if you dont protect yourself from the sun. i get laid all the time and i have some freckles.

Onions also can be used for removing freckles and age spots. Slice a red onion in half and rub on the spots twice daily. Continue until the spots fade.
