Hello doctor. My daugher is 5.5yrs old. We went to Andaman 15 days back and got tanned there. Although i applied sunscreen to her face but she got tanned. Now there are many white spots/patches on her face which are like dry patches that happens in winter. But some of them are different. Attaching the pictures for your reference.
