He has had these spots for 10 or more years. He was visiting his doctor when his doctor suggested he needed to see a dermatologist. He said that the spots had to do with his liver.

Not sure what causes the spots, hormones or what. Seeing a dermatologist will let you know what the purple spots are. Also the doctor can let you know what the cause is from and how to get rid of them.
