What Causes Skin Pigmentation?
Pigmentation refers to skin colouring, primarily determined by melanin, a pigment produced by specialised cells called melanocytes. Several factors can influence skin pigmentation, leading to various pigmentation disorders, including the following:
Sun exposure- Hormonal changes
- Inflammation
- Genetic factors
- Medication
- Medical Conditions such as pregnancy
Sun exposure
Types of Pigmentation
Understanding the different types of pigmentation is crucial for effective treatment and management. Here are some of the most common pigmentation types:
Melasma
Melasma is characterised by dark, brownish patches, typically appearing on the face, especially the forehead, cheeks, bridge of the nose, and upper lip. It’s more common in women and often associated with hormonal changes, such as pregnancy or contraceptive use, earning it the nickname “the mask of pregnancy.” Sun exposure can exacerbate this condition, making sun protection crucial for those affected.
Sunspots (Solar Lentigines)
Sunspots, liver spots or solar lentigines are flat brown spots that develop on skin areas frequently exposed to the sun, like the face, hands, and arms. They’re more common in older adults, reflecting years of UV exposure. Despite their name, these spots are unrelated to the liver and are purely a pigmentation concern.
Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)
PIH occurs after an injury or inflammation to the skin, such as cuts, burns, acne, or eczema. It results in darkened patches or spots where the skin has healed. PIH can affect individuals of all skin types but is more pronounced in those with darker skin tones. Avoiding skin irritation and protecting the skin from the sun can help prevent PIH.
