Skin Rot? Infection?

Hello all,
I noticed several dark spots on Spencer's chin and mouth about a month ago. He wasn't acting lethargic or anything. So I thought it was just something that he got on his face. Considering my visual impairment, I finally had my roommate take pictures of it because it hadn't gone away after he shed. There are no other places on his skin that look like this.
Today he's still his usual self. His diet consists of dubia roaches and fresh veggies. Temps are correct. Enclosure is clean.
Here are links to two pictures that were taken with a good camera.

I'm worried that it's skin rot or something worse.
I've been hesitant on taking him to the vet in town because the last time I took his advice, my previous beardie ended up dying.
Please let me know your thoughts and remedies that will help. I'm not ready to lose another one.
Thanks so much.

Hi Sarah....he's a real cutie pie, and it doesn't look like anything serious. Sometimes they develop discolored scales here + there from a slight trauma, but it could still be a stain that may take more than one bath to come off. Either way it doesn't look like anything serious.

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
