These light coloured patches are areas of hypopigmentation, that is loss of normal skin pigment. There can be many causes for this, like an infection or even a body's immune system response.
Next Steps
A detailed history will be required to decide on the diagnosis and treatment. You can schedule an online consultation with me.
