Part 3: The 4 Primary Causes of Small White Spots

• Cumulative Sun Exposure: Years of UV exposure gradually damage melanocyte cells, causing them to lose their ability to produce melanin pigment.
• Natural Skin Aging: As skin ages, the overall number of active pigment-producing cells naturally declines, particularly on sun-exposed limbs.
• Genetics: A hereditary predisposition plays a large role in whether your skin cells are susceptible to localized pigment loss.
• Previous Skin Trauma: Minor abrasions, bug bites, or localized inflammation can sometimes leave behind small depigmented scars.
