What is hyperpigmentation ?

• Hyperpigmentation is the aggravated version of
  pigmented lesions. Our skins tone is maintained
  by the melanocyte cells that produce the melanin
  evenly across the skin. Hence, if these
  melanocytes become hyperactive and produce more
  melanin, the skin tone becomes dark, and the
  readily dark spots and patches become even
  darker.
• Most of these pigmented lesions are harmless and
  benign. However, some rare skin lesions can be a
  cause of cancerous development in the skin. The
  regions where it may affect depends mostly on the
  underlying causes.

What Causes Hyperpigmentation?

• Though nearly all of us have some type of
  pigmented lesions like birthmarks, age spots,
  freckles, etc. some develop severe pigmentations
  due to secondary causes, such as
• Consistent sun exposure over specific regions
• Skin inflammation caused by acne and scars
• As a side effect of other skin conditions like
  melasma or rosacea
• As a side effect of specific drugs like
  antidepressants, birth control pills, or hormone
  medications
• Other health conditions like hemochromatosis or
  Addisons disease
