Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi..

It may be idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis. It ls without any cause. It may be considered as aging process. Brownish spots may be solar keratosis.

Kindly consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis.

Idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis is a harmless and benign condition. No treatment is needed.

Thanks.
