What Causes Freckles On The Back?

I am 51years old and light skinned with light freckles all my life, I have a sudden appearance of at least 6 black freckles approximately 1 mm diameter on my back in the last week. I will schedule an appointment with my dermatologist but in the meanwhile have you ever seen this?

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

Freckle is a hypermelanotic macular or patchy skin disease mostly occurs on sun exposed parts of the body,mostly on face. You consult dermatologist for the perfect treatment. I would suggest as follow..

- vitamin C
- nicotinic acid
- glutathion
- kojic acid containing cream
- glycolic acid containing cream
- facewash containg glycolic acid
- avoidance of sunexposure
- sunscreen

I hope this would help you..

Thanks.
