Dark spots from sun: Dark sun induced spots, best avoided. Treat with topical hydro quinone ointments available by prescription, laser skin or acid peels might be helpful as well. Use sun block or all the benefits can be undone again.

Combination Therapy: Combination therapy is the best way to get rid of dark spots. This means using a prescription retinoid and fade creams. Chemical peels and laser are also very effective. Sunblock is also critical. Dermatologists specialize in removing dark spots.
