What is Hyperpigmentation?

Hyper Pigmentation refers to a skin disorder in which patches of the skin get darker than the rest of the skin. These dark patches around the mouth, face, and neck occur due to deposits of excess melanin. (Colour-producing pigment) When melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) get damaged, they produce extra melanin that tends to bundle together. Such clusters on certain parts of the skin result in the formation of dark patches or hyperpigmentation. These are susceptible to all age groups and are generally harmless.So you should opt for a pigmentation treatment.

Common Types of Hyperpigmentation

Before we plunge into the different pigmentation treatment methods, it is crucial to understand different forms of hyperpigmentation.

Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation: Usually, this occurs due to acne or skin injury (injury during procedures like laser therapy, dermabrasion, and chemical peels. Due to the increase in melanin production, the patches can appear red, pink, brown, or black. Solar lentigines: These generally manifest on the parts which are exposed to the sun. When you tell your skin to harmful UVA or UVB rays for an extended time interval, it drives excess melanin production through melanocytes. This increase in melanin gives discolored patches on the skin.

Melasma: These commonly occur due to hormonal changes during pregnancy and are technically known as the mask of aging.This type of pigmentation appears as brown or gray patches on the face, especially on the forehead, cheeks, nose, and upper lip.

Sunspots or Agespots: These are sunburn-related brown, tan, or black blotches that develop on the skin. Older persons or those with fair skin who have spent a lot of time in the sun are more likely to develop them. Although they are often benign, they can signify skin injury or precancerous alterations

Lentigines: Lentigines are tiny, black patches that develop on the skin after exposure to the sun, much like sunspots. They can show up anywhere on the body and are more prevalent in those with pale skin.

Freckles: Small, flat, brown patches called freckles are frequently found on the face, arms, and shoulders. They are a kind of pigmentation that develops when melanin, the pigment that gives skin its colour, is produced more than usual.

Dark Under Eye Circle: A frequent cosmetic problem, dark circles around the eyes can be brought on by a number of things, including pigmentation. Due to the thinness and fragility of the skin around the eyes, when the blood vessels under the skin become visible from the area's loss of fat, it can result in a dark or bluish discoloration.
