Brown spots found in areas frequently exposed to the sun. Age spots are either lighter (hypo) or darker (hyper) pigmentation.

This is a response to injury of the skin and can be the result of an existing skin condition, burns, friction or aggressive clinical treatments like chemical peels, dermabrasion and laser treatment. This condition typically resolves with time and usually responds to topical products, though it will recur.
