WHAT CAUSES HYPERPIGMENTATION?

Have you ever wondered why dark spots appear on your skin or why you have freckles?

When pigment-producing skin cells are damaged or exposed to ultraviolet light, they create more pigment in your skin. This causes dark patches to appear on your skin, a condition referred to as hyperpigmentation.

Types of Hyperpigmentation

• Age Spots / Sun Spots: Small dark patches of skin from over-exposure to UV radiation

• Freckles: Clusters of small red or brown spots located on the face, neck, back, chest, hands or arms, which can be hereditary or caused by sun exposure

• Melasma: Dark patches of skin caused by hormone imbalance, usually during pregnancy

• Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation: Dark brown or blue-gray patches of skin caused by inflammation, usually after an injury or inflammatory skin disorder.
