Age spots
Also known as “solar lentignes,” age spots are very common in adults over 50, but can also occur in those much younger. Despite their name (age spots) they are in fact due to accumulated sun exposure. They are well defined, uniformly coloured, brown or grey, and appear on the sun exposed skin areas like the face, neck, shoulders, décolletage and hands. Conditions like pregnancy, vitamin deficiencies, and weak liver functioning may also lead to this problem.
