Freckles are small round or oval-shaped spots on the skin that are typically uniform in colour, ranging from light tan to dark brown. They’re typically flat and do not itch, bleed or cause pain.
Freckles often appear on sun-exposed areas of the body, such as the face, arms, shoulders and upper back. They may also be found on other sun-exposed areas if you spend a lot of time in the sun. Freckles can be found in clusters or scattered across the skin, and it’s possible for them to darken or become more noticeable when exposed to the sun.
