What Are the Causes of Pigmentation?

An increase in melanin in our skin causes pigmentation. Melanin is the natural pigment that gives our skin, hair, and eyes colour. Sun exposure, hormonal influences, age, and skin injuries or inflammation are all factors that can cause an increase in melanin production.

What are some common types of Pigmentation?

Freckles are one of the most common types of pigmentation. Others are solar lentigines, also known as sun spots, melasma, which occurs deeper in the dermis of the skin, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, which can be caused by acne, burns, or friction.
