Tiny white spots on legs

Question

Asked for Female, 45 Years

I'm a woman of 45 yes and have begun to notice very tiny spots appearing on.my legs about 1 mm in size. They re not really patches or completely white but more of an off white colour... I know it's a loss of melanin. And my wild guess it from what I googled is that it may idiopathic guttate hypomelonosis.. What do you suggest I should do?
