What are the symptoms of age spots?

So-called liver spots can develop over time or appear suddenly. These age spots are not painful. Symptoms include:

• Brown, tan, or black patches of skin that may get darker after spending time in the sun
• Discolored areas of different sizes, from the size of a tiny freckle up to an inch in diameter
• Flat patches that appear on their own or clustered in a group
• Dark spots on the skin with sharply defined edges or borders
