Freckles occur as a result of sun exposure. While some people with darker complexions have some freckles, they are more common on fair-skinned individuals. Once you have freckles, it can take some time for them to fade.
Make sunscreen part of your daily routine. Since the sun causes freckles, it's imperative that you wear sunscreen if you wish to avoid more freckles. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen. Since most sunscreens do not last all day, it's wise to reapply at least once throughout the day. If you are spending intensive time outdoors, reapply more often.
Step2
Exfoliate your skin once to twice a week. When you exofliate, you are removing dead, sun-damaged skin cells on the surface of the skin. The newer cells underneath haven't had as much sun exposure and though they'll still have freckles, they should be slightly lighter.
Step3
Purchase a skin lightening cream or lotion. These creams contain a variety of different ingredients such as burberry extract, liquorice extract, mulberry extract and hydroquinone which have been shown to lighten dark spots on the skin.
Step4
Apply a vitamin C serum to your freckles. Vitamin C has been shown to be effective at lightening dark spots and brightening skin's overall complexion. It's recommended that you apply most serums daily.
Step5
Visit your dermatologist. With a prescription, you can get more intense bleaching creams which help to fade freckles with regular application.
Step6
Consider photofacials which use laser light to fade freckles. The light targets the pigment in the freckles, breaking them apart. The pigment is then reabsorbed into the body, resulting in dramatically lighter freckles.
Step7
Try some all-natural, home remedies for removing freckles. Lemon juice, honey, tomato juice, onions, buttermilk and sour milk have all been shown to lighten freckles. Apply to the freckles and let sit for a few minutes before rinsing off.
Hope this helps!

The cost of laser freckle removal will vary greatly depending on your individual case, area to be treated, number of treatments and other factors. It is very difficult to predict the cost without a consultation with a laser surgeon. In addition to your condition, region and city are very important factors. In certain markets laser surgery is much more expensive due to demand, in others less so. The chart below is intended to supply an average cost range of various laser/light therapies. It may not accurately reflect your cost.
Treatment Type Cost Range
(Per Treatment)
Laser Treatment (nonablative)* $300 to $1,500
Erbium Laser Therapies* $1,500 to $4,000
Fractional Laser $1,500 to $2,500
Plasma High Energy $3,000 to $5,000
Plasma Low Energy $2,000
IPL $400 to $700
Does the laser removal hurt? Most people find the treatment tolerably annoying or slightly uncomfortable.

I'm not sure about freckle removal but I know other laser processes are in the hundreds of dollars range.
I have freckles all over too and I've wanted to get rid of them before but I like them now. Your face wouldn't look the same without them.
