małe ciemne plamy na skórze

AI overview

Freckles are small spots on the skin caused by melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) that overproduce melanin, making them most visible on fair skin. They differ from moles and lentigines because they don't involve an increased number of melanocytes, just an overproduction of pigment in existing cells.
