Freckles

When exposed to the sun for longer periods of time, our skin produces extra melanin to protect itself from sun-damage. This is why freckles emerge mostly after exposure to the sun. Freckles can cover a huge region of skin and return or darken as the summer progresses. In the winter, when new skin cells replace old ones, freckles often fade or disappear. They can appear over arms, face, neck etc.

  1. Freckles Freckles are tiny, harmless dot-like marks on the skin. Often caused by genetics and sun exposure, Freckles affect some people more than others. Exposure to sunlight can cause freckles to form in people who are genetically predisposed to them. Children’s freckles are widespread, although they may fade or become less prominent as they get older.
