Sun damage
Hi, I’m not sure if my skin is dealing with melasma or sun spots/damage. So far it’s only visible on the right side of my face. On my upper middle cheek, there is a brown spot which I’m pretty sure it getting darker by the day. Is there any way to reverse this? Or should I talk to my doctor? Am I at the risk for skin cancer?
