Brown spots result from UV damage to melanocytes, which are the skin cells responsible for creating melanin. Melanin acts as a natural “sunscreen” for us, and it is what’s responsible for the tan after sun exposure.

As we age, our skin slowly loses collagen and elastin, which are responsible for giving our skin its youthful appearance and structure. The decrease in structure, as well as overall volume loss due to aging, contributes to the appearance of veins closer to the surface of the skin.
