White patches on face

2018-09-15 07:10:57
I've noticed a white patch on the right side of my face. Now I notice something similar on my left forehead. I had a cooker incident a year back & burnt small patches all over my face including the spots where I've white patches. Not sure if the old burns have anything to do with the recent white patches.
