Lentigo N Patch Spot Skin Excessive Pigment Appearing

Word lentigo
Definition n. A patch or spot of skin with excessive pigment, appearing darker than the surrounding area.
Sentence She was thinner and taller, and for a second it seemed to me her face was less pretty than the mental imprint I had cherished for more than a month: her cheeks looked hollowed and too much lentigo camouflaged her rosy rustic features.
