Child with Dark Spots on Neck

My 12 year old daughter has developed brown spots on her neck down from her chin. Looks like birth mark or pigment change - this type of coloration - they kind of run together. When it first appeared I thought her neck was dirty. I think more developed after she was in the sun - althought she did have on sunscreen. What could it possibly be? She does have a little bit of it at hairline on side of neck too. She is very fair skinned, small for her age and thin. She is approaching puberity. Thank you.

I was googling the same concern regarding my 14 year daughter tonight and came across your post from 5 years ago. Did you find out anything? Is everything okay?
Thanks,
Kristen
