These patches are usually found on sun-exposed areas of the face, such as the cheeks, bridge of the nose, forehead, chin, and sometimes the upper lip. The colour of these patches can range from light brown to dark brown and are generally more noticeable in people with darker skin tones or those who have had significant sun exposure.
