ED61.0 Freckles

International Classification of Diseases for Mortality and Morbidity Statistics, 11th Revision, v2024-01

The presence of multiple ephelides (ephelis = freckle) as is commonly seen in sun-exposed skin of individuals with phototype I (sun-sensitive) skin. They occur as a profusion of light brown macules, particularly on the face and upper extremities, and become more prominent after sun exposure. In contrast to lentigines there is no keratinocyte proliferation histologically.
