Treatment options for brown spots on face? (Photo)

oliviajhnsn
Hi, l’ve been strictly using sunscreen since I was a teen. After, 30 brown spots increased on my face even tough l still use sunscreen and reapply throughout the day. 4 days ago I didn’t have the spot on the left side of the photo. I didn’t go out that much and I used sunscreen when I was outside. My doctor said these spots are genetic and she can’t do anything about them, she is a dermatology professor. I’m really bored of getting sudden brown spots on my face despite the fact that I use sunscreen strictly. Do you have any recommendations?
