Brown spots are small or large spots or freckles that are brown in color and appear on the skin, typically on the areas that are exposed to the sun, including the face, neck, chest and hands. These brown spots can cause low self esteem and embarrassment. Brown spots occur when an excess amount of melanin is produced, creating pigment and resulting in brown spots, age spots or freckles. Many light skinned people are affected by brown spots and freckles, however people of all skin colors and types can be affected by these hyperpigmented spots which typically show up after sun exposure. Some people have freckles appear at a very young age, which typically become less noticeable as they get older. The most common causes of brown spots include excessive sun exposure, hormonal changes such as pregnancy or oral contraceptives, and trauma to the skin.
