It depends upon the morphology. It may be idiopathic guttate hypopigmentation (the most probable one) or it can be vitiligo too(safed daag). Sometimes tinea ver6can present like this too. So it's better to take cons6for your peace, because IGH is a benign condition but not the others. You can consult online and send the pics
