Brief Answer:
Seborrheic keratosis

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for the photographs.
The pigmentation appears to be seborrheic keratosis, an age related skin change.
There is nothing to worry.
No treatment is required.
Just apply a moisturizer in night and a sunscreen with spf 50 in day for photo protection.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
