Freckles

Freckles are localized collections of skin cells with more melanin compared to the rest of the skin cells. Our skin cells produce melanin which is responsible for our skin color. Sometimes, melanocytes produce more melanin pigment due to sun exposure. Such types of excess melanin skin cell spots are called freckles.
