The spots starting about 3 months ago and she is getting more and more on her face and neck . Do you know what this might be? Pepole have said liver spots or age spots but she is only 12 years old.

If it is vitiligo, go to www.hufa.org - the yeast link. The book I am reading to rid myself of yeast indicates that vitiligo can be one result. This particular book recommends "Swedish Bitters" in addition to a candida fungus cleanse diet. Yeast (candida) can cause more than just vitiligo.
If this turns out to be the cause, have your daughter's insulin level checked, because yeast needs an imbalance in the bodies blood sugar or immune system before it really will overgrow.

If the hair loss is around the collar I would safely say it is the collar. Not all flea collars are suitable for cats. I would use frontline or advocate for fleas. Advocate also does earmites, worms,heartworm etc. It is not very expensive. If it was ringworm yes you will need vet help. Ringworm happens more randomly and will lose patches of hair around the nose, mouth and patches on the body. Wash your cat if at all possible with animal shampoo and not medicated. A gentle shampoo. If you are really poor I would buy a packet of Johnsons baby wipes. They are safe on cats and kittens. (only Johnsons) ($5.) others have benzalconium chloride which is poisonous to cats. Wipe the cat on those areas each day and apply dermaid which you can get from the chemist. Dermaid is a very mild cortisone cream which will help to soothe and take the inflammation off the skin. About $10- a tube. Seriously if it is the flea collar this will help and if it is ringworm it will get worse and worse until you get treatment from the vet. Total cost $15- if you have that much money I give you a 85% chance it will help. Good luck I know this will help. (Don't tell anyone, it is a secret but I work in the vet industry and this is a really easy one for me)

It sounds like vitiligo. She should be taken to a dermatologist to find out if that's what it might be.

vitiligo could be the reason but, she might be kinda nervous or is under pressure by you or school, she is too young for that but, I am sure she needs a neurologist treatment.

If it's just the pigment changes, it might be vitiligo. If it is flakey and raised, it might be psoriasis.

It could be a form of rosea - I would take her to MD to be sure.
