1. Use a sunscreen when you go out, and pay attention to your face and hands. Remember, age spots are caused by a lifetime of exposure to the sun, so the sooner you start wearing sunblock, the less likely it is that you'll get them.
   Make sure you choose a sunscreen that blocks UVA and UVB rays and has an SPF of at least 15.
2. Wear a long-sleeved shirt and wide-brimmed hat when you know you'll be in the sun.
3. Try to minimise exposure to sunlight between 10 am and 2 pm, when the sunlight is the strongest.
4. Use alpha-hydroxy lotions to keep skin smooth and clear.
5. Bleaching agents can help fade the age spots you start getting. You can buy them at the local chemist.
