Freckels

FRECKLES  OR  BROWN SPOTS
Freckles are small flat brown spots less than 5 mm diameter with poorly defined margins and typically are the size of the head of a common nail.
These spots are multiple and may develop randomly on the skin , especially after repeated exposure to the sun light.
The spots appears on the children at the age of 1 -2, particularly common in people of fair complexion on upper body skin areas like cheeks , nose, arms and upper shoulder.
The medical term for freckles is Ephilis / Ephilides.  The colour is due to pigment accumulating in the skin cells (Keratinocytes).
Freckles are due to an increase in the amount of dark pigment called melanin and are not due to an increase in the total number of pigment producing cells called melanocytes. The melanocytes produced melanin during winters is less but more when exposed to the sun light.
