These black dots are not fatal and are normal occurrence on the skin. The reason it is caused is due top hyper pigmentation. Melanin is an ingredient in our skin that is responsible for providing the skin with color. Sometimes there are areas where there is an excess presence or formation of melanin and hence that particular area of the skin appears to be darker than the others.

There are also other reasons why hyper pigmentation occurs; these could due to age spots, birthmarks or pimples. Age spots as is obvious appears due to the aging of skin over time and the exposure to the sun. hyper pigmentation can happen to anyone regardless of the type of skin color they have and are caused due to the over exposure of ones body to the sun or the over production of hormones in certain cases. These marks if treated will eventually disappear and are not dangerous at all. You can treat yourself for it by using a skin lightning cream or otherwise visit a dermatologist as to what is the best remedy to follow. To prevent the further occurrence of dark spots remember to always protect yourself when going out in to the sun and put on a good quality sunscreen.
