is it effective for sun spots?

I would say no. At least not for me. Helps clear body acne or "heat bumps" but for clearing sun spots or darkening of skin you will need a peel and possibly a skin lightener. Good luck. If you use this and have success with sun spots please post so we can have variables of peoples experiences as not everyone is the same. I am a very light skinned person who gets sun spots that look like freckles but are not however that doesn't mean that it couldn't work for you. For the lie price may be a good starting point

I'm sorry but I don't know. This is the only product of this nature that I've purchased. I will say that for being olive tan complexion with many, many sunspots, it does seem to at least be evening out the skin texture and removing a light top layer. I don't see it doing much for the sun spots though. Hope this might help.

yes! I've found it works best when you use it continously when ever you can. Almost all my dark spots are fading, some even gone completely! i'm completely impressed with this lotion, as nothing else has ever worked for me before. I hope u are getting as great results as I am! :D

Yes, this product will lighten dark spots on hands, face and knees, and will completely remove recent acne marks.It works really well, better than any other product I have purchased. However,it is very oily so if you already have oily skin use a minimal amount.

Yes. Use a sunscreen while lightening spots. This works so much better than others I have used and paid way more for.

You can if you don't have uneven face tones/coloring. I have sun spots from years of tanning and age which are enhanced with Hemp Bronzing. It also gives an orange tone, instead of brown of hemp.

I do not use it on my elbows, I use it for light sun spots on my hands, it does work.

I use it on my face and hands. Works well but takes time and consistent use for spots to fade.

I don't believe it would as it doesn't even work on your facial spots. I used it morning and night on a spot on my face for 2 months and saw no improvement or lightening of the spot so I stopped using the product.

I am not a doctor, so I cannot advise regarding your question, however, I can tell you that I have very sensitive skin and have been using this product for over 15 years for age spots. You must use it twice a day,give it time (perhaps 2 to 4 weeks), wear sunscreen and a hat when outdoors for a period of time. It does not stop the spots from reappearing, but, again, if you use it twice daily and following the rest of my advice, it does lighten the spot (in my case, age spots) significantly. I recommend you get the advice of a dematologist before using.

I can't answer that but I can tell you it really didn't help me at all. I have dark spots from sun damage and I didn't notice any difference after using this product.

I used it last summer and it did well. Of course one should reapply any sunscreen every 90 minutes, which I did.

I only use 1 or 2 drop(s) on the areas needed. For me this was as small as what gets in the dropper without pinching the rubber top. I applied to temples, forehead, and where I have sun spots. I only use it in the morning, about 2 weeks now-I have plenty to go. Use sunscreen if go outside.

I love this produce and yes it can stop sun spots from starting and continues to keep your face from sun spots. It is light and so easy to use under makeup. It does not have alot of oxidein it and I don't have to run around before putting my makeup on to let it dry. This is the best.

If you are trying to get rid of exczma spots I think that it would be worth a try. Use about a dot sized amount (very small amount) on the effected areas of the skin but make sure that those areas don't dry out so use lotion and a little sun block won't hurt. But, this product is not for pigmentation issues.

This did work on my dark age spots, I don't know if it would work on freckles. However I would caution against spreading over large area, like a freckle patch. This got rid of my spots, but initially I spread it generously around the area, and it really made the area red (like a sunburn, and even peeled). Now I just use it in very concentrated, direct spots. I have pale, fair skin.

Yes, I do think it helps to smooth fine lines and wrinkles. I'm not sure about the brown sun spots. I am been using Neutrogena Retinol serum for quite a while now, and so any spots that I have on my face have been lightened by that. My face appears "brighter" from using the PTR pads. Also, I have been rubbing the pads on my hands, which have a couple of spots on them, and so far I have seen no change but I will continue to use what's left in the pads (after using on my face) to rub on my hands....can't hurt!
