WHAT ARE AGE SPOTS?

flat brown or dark patches caused by long-term sun exposure.
👉 Commonly appear on face, hands, shoulders, and arms.
🔷 WHAT CAUSES AGE SPOTS?
Primary causes:
UV exposure (sun damage)
Aging skin
Accumulated melanin production
👉 UV light triggers melanin overproduction, leading to visible pigmentation.
🔷 HOW ARE AGE SPOTS DIFFERENT FROM FRECKLES OR MELASMA?
