Picture
This lesion has a uniform reticular network peripherally. Centrally there are some skin coloured clods surrounded by  symmetrical structureless blue /grey pigmentation.
The reticular network peripherally is reassuring and a pattern of clods centrally means that with better visualisation of the lesion we would probably see that the blue/ grey area is probably made up of clods as well. This lesion is probably changing from a Solar lentigo into a Seborrheic Keratosis.  If this lesion has been present for months to years then  it is safe to see in 3/12 for another picture. If it is new and changing then the best option is a shave biopsy.
