From here they look like natural markings. Unless we can get much clarity of pictures and close up.

It’s only became apparent in the last few weeks. But looking through here I can see they look normal enough. Thank you for replying

I don’t think it look concerning.

As males mature, they do tend to get some black like this around the face area. Like @BleuSaphir said, does not look concerning.

I don’t have anything to say that hasn’t already been said, but I can reassure you that I was always looking super close at the black areas on my first male veiled even though I knew they were just a normal part of his coloration and patterns. I think it’s just the ‘normal’ paranoia of keeping chameleons.

Yep I agree with everyone. My male veiled has had the same black markings in the same places and has had that for years, so yours looks totally fine to me.
