WANT TO KNOW WHY SUN SPOTS KEEP APPEARING ON MY BODY SUCH AS  FACE AND LOWER ABDOMEN

[ab]

ask your doctor to check your sunspots to see if it is tinea versicolor.its a fungus that grows on the scalp and when the flakes fall on your skin,it bleaches the skin.i work in a tanning salon and a lot of girls with longer hair get sunspots on their abdomin from pulling their hair forward when the brush it.the fungus falls there as a result and bleaches that area.Just a thought.

Perhpas they appear because you go out in the sun.  Or maybe they aren't sun spots but age spots.  Any way you look at it, someobody's got to look at it to answer your question.

Best.
