Freckles are not evidence of sun damage; they are a genetic trait. However, people with freckles tend to have lower amounts of photoprotective melanin in their skin, and use of sunscreen is suggested to prevent possible damage by UV radiation. Excessive sun exposure can also cause freckles to darken.
