They are flat and harmless patches of darker skin that develop due to years of exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation via the sunlight. They appear on areas that are exposed to sunlight over the years, such as the face, hands, forearms, and shoulders.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These spots range in colour from light brown to dark brown and vary in size from small freckles to larger, clustered patches. Medical references from sources such as the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/my.clevelandclinic.org\/health\/diseases\/21723-liver-spots\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cleveland Clinic<\/a> describe liver spots as benign pigmentation changes that do not typically indicate any disease.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Causes_Liver_Spots_on_Face\"><\/span><b>What Causes Liver Spots on Face?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The primary cause is exposure to UV radiation over long periods from sunlight or even tanning equipment. UV rays promote melanin production and give the skin its colour. But over the years, this process can lead to clustered or single dark coloured spots. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are a few possible causes of this condition:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Ageing<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Spots are more common after age 40\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Skin type<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: People with light skin tones tend to develop them more easily\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Sun exposure<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Outdoor work, sports, or frequent sunbathing increases risk\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Tanning beds<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Artificial UV light has similar effects to sunlight\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Genetics<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Family history can influence pigmentation behaviours\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite being called liver spots, they are not related to liver conditions; the name originated historically due to the darkened appearance of the skin due to ageing.
