Results are so-so: If you've got freckles and would rather not, laser treatment can help but won't leave you free of them. Everybody should use sunscreen and this will make them less prominent. You can also make a conscious decision to like, rather than dislike, them. A majority of your friends will tell you this is the right choice. Why not embrace this distinctive feature of who you are? Best wishes.
