Hi
It's not from the sun . It's damage to the skin caused from the sun. Years of exposure. Its the same thing weather you call it solar purpura or senile purpura. That's what my dermatologist told me. The collagen is damaged from long term exposure to the sun. I don't take blood thinners and I have it bad right now.

Mine is from lack of estrogen from cancer meds. Basically these purpura happen from skin getting thinner with age, I have been told. MY cancer treatment eliminated estrogen and therefore thinned my skin early.
