Sorting out the run-of-the-mill age spot from something more ghastly can be difficult. It is always advisable to seek the opinion of a medical professional when there is any question about a spot on the skin that seems to be changing. The old addage, "better safe than sorry" certainly applies when it comes to skin care. Once the spot has been evaluated, the correct treatment can be initiated.

• Seborrheic keratoses. These tan, brown or black growths have a wart-like or waxy, pasted-on appearance and range in size from very small to more than 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) across. Seborrheic keratoses don't become cancerous, but they can resemble age spots, moles or skin cancer.

• Lentigo maligna. One type of skin cancer known as lentigo maligna melanoma can develop in areas of long-term sun exposure. Lentigo maligna starts as tan, brown or black lesions that slowly darken and enlarge. They tend to have an irregular border and uneven coloring and may be slightly raised.
