Brown spots on skin are called chloasma or melasma and can happen for several reasons. One side effect of sun damage is the skin discoloration known as solar lentigenes. Brown patches of skin can also occur due to birth control pills, pregnancy, or estrogen replacement therapy. In those instances the discoloration is referred to as pregnancy or hormone masking.
Treatment of melasma depends on the type and involves skin-lightening agents and sometimes tretinoin (Retin-A). The proper use of sunscreen is also important because UV light can worsen melasma.
A few options may help fade or treat dark patches:
Hydroquinone is a cream that takes pigment out of the skin. It blocks the natural chemical process that leads to the creation of melanin, the substance that makes skin dark.
Tretinoin is a type of vitamin A that helps to increase the rate at which dead skin cells fall off and new ones appear. This makes the melasma patch fade more quickly as the pigmented cells are shed.
Azelaic acid cream appears to work by slowing down or stopping the production of pigment, the substance that makes the skin darker.
Chemical peels are liquid solutions applied to the skin to provide a mild chemical burn, similar to sunburn. Over time, the burned layers peel off, leaving fresh, new skin. Chemical peels vary in strength. Glycolic acid is among the mildest, and therefore has a lower risk of causing scarring or skin discoloration. Chemical peels may be used if melasma does not respond to other treatments.
Sometimes a bleaching cream may be of some help to lighten the darker areas.
Some dermatologists use laser therapy to remove the pigmented layer of skin, but this technique is not a routine treatment for melasma.
QUit kissing your bosses behind so much..that stuff tend to rub off. Especially in the nose area.
Hence the term ';brown noser';
Try a skin lightener

If they are raised in any way, putting pure lavender oil on them will eventually make them fall off and leave a little red mark for a while. Use sunscreen or a tinted moisturizer with spf15 every day to prevent more sun damage.
