I have same issue so just keeping thread up. I have lots of freckles on arms. At a loss as to getting rid of them.

i have lots of it on my face. i have tried peeling but eventually after a few months they all became visible again and even worse. it runs in the blood so i think you can't do much of it.

SUNSCREEN. every-single-day... without failure.

I use 4% HQ on my arms if I get any (i'm a natural red-head and had tons of freckles on my face too, but they're gone now

I stopped using HQ about a year ago with any consistency and I have no freckles now - use an SPF 90 daily.
