Spot the Difference: Freckle, Sunspot or Mole? - AI Podcast
Story at-a-glance
- Freckles are small, flat, light brown spots that darken in summer and fade in winter; they typically appear in clusters on sun-exposed areas
- Sunspots are flat, brownish patches that don't change with seasons; they signal sun damage and appear on sun-exposed areas like hands, face and chest
- Moles can be flat or raised, tan to dark brown, sometimes with hair, and should be monitored for skin cancer warning signs
- Genetics play a significant role in skin spots — fair-skinned individuals with family history are more prone to freckles, while mole numbers are often genetically determined
- Monthly skin checks are recommended to monitor changes in skin spots; see a doctor if you notice asymmetry, unusual borders or odd colors
