It May Be Sun Spots Posted: 08-06-05 23:33pm
If you are very dark from either natural
sun tanning, or tanning beds then it may
be sun spots. I have them too but I went
to see a dermatoligist about it and she
gave me a creme that made them not as
visible as they were before. My doctor
told me that the pigment in your skin is
not as strong as the others so they dont
tan like the rest of your skin and it
results in white spots...But my best
advice is to go see a doctor about it,
because it could be no big deal at all, or
something serious. Either way you will
still get medical help for it...

i have a friend who had this she was dark
skinned. i aslo have a sister who is fair
skinned and had darker spots on her neck.
ts a type of fungus nothing to worry
about, many people have it. all you need
is a topical cream of some sought from
your doctor and it goes away after a
while, no tablets or anything.

what kind of spot are you talking
about...if your on about actual pimplelike
spots then it could be milia..a common
condition of the skin. to find out more
just write it in google and lots of info
comes up...
But if your on about patches...then im not
entirely sure...maybe its best to go to
the docz just to be safe??
