Why would you want to get rid of them? I have freckles and I like them, my daughter has them and she likes them, my friends wife has them and she likes them.

Surgery, but then you get scars.

Do people you know in real-life think they're unattractive?

Question Asker Well yes. plus I get bothered by them. - 4 months ago
Answerer There's a big difference between people not liking freckles, and people not liking your freckles. I just wanted to make that clear.

For what it's worth, I had freckles as a child, and, they do fade. Not all, but some.

Well, from what I have heard freckles fade as you age. But in the mean time, try these tips:

Stay out of the sun whenever possible and wear sunscreen when you do go outside. Your freckles will tan just like the rest of you, causing them to become more obvious.
Apply lemon juice directly to your face twice a day and let it sit for at least 15 minutes. You can also apply it at night before retiring and wash it off in the morning after rising. This will also increase your sensitivity to sunlight so wear sunscreen when you go out.
Rinse your face with sour milk.
Apply sour cream over your entire face, let it sit for 15 minutes and then wipe it off with a towel or tissue, but don’t rinse.

You can try home remedies:

Lemon juice (apply it on your face or where ever you have your freckles)
Parsley juice (apply it on your face or where ever you have your freckles)
Onion juice (apply it on your face or where ever you have your freckles)
Cucumber juice (you can also crush a cucumber into paste and use the resulting material)
Fenugreek oil (Dilute in cream or yogurt)
A mixture of 2 oz. Lemon juice, 2 oz. rum, 1 tsp. glycerin, and 4 tbsp. buttermilk - let the mixture set on your face for 30 minutes and wash, no more than twice a day.
A mixture of 1 tbsp. yogurt and a dribble of honey. Apply this directly to your freckles and it let set for 30 minutes before washing.

**lemon juice works - but you have to be carefull with it becasue after using it, if you are not protecting your skin against the sun, your skin will become irritated**

Try the following links:

So give these tips a shot, they'll help your freckles fade, will they ever go away? That requires medical treatments and such.

But, in anycase, I think freckles are not all that bad.

Goodluck.

Why would you want to get rid of freckles?! They are so cute! I've been getting more this year from the sun and just love 'em!
To keep from getting new ones, you probably would want to stay out of the sun. I'm sure you can go to the dermatologist and they could do something about them.

Freckles are the cutest thing every! I got them all over my nose and cheeks and I love them. And believe it or not, as you get older, I find that guys surprisingly do kinda like them!

If you must cover them, use concealer, then liquid foundation and to give a better finish use a powder foundation over the top. But really I think it's better to just love them. Covering your skin in makeup is making a false you and preventing your skin from breathing.

If you really feel you want to remove them permanently, a series of laser treatment would probably work although it would be pricey and is likely to hurt a bit. Hope this helps chick xx

freckles come out in the sun, use more sunscreen or stay out of the sun really is the only way to avoid them. I know I still get freckles even when I put on sunscreen though but I have a lot more than most people, I don't mind though, freckles are cute :)

i'm pretty sure there is no way to get freckles to go away, but to prevent them use more sunblock becuz they result from the sun. I think freckles are cute though. they giv you personality.
