Hyperpigmentation describes when areas of the skin darken compared to surrounding skin due to excess melanin production. Common triggers include sun exposure, hormonal fluctuations (e.g., pregnancy, birth control), inflammation, skin trauma, and certain medications. Types include sun spots, age spots, melasma, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Understanding the causes and types of hyperpigmentation is crucial for implementing targeted treatment and prevention strategies tailored to individual skin concerns.
Hyperpigmentation, characterized by patches of darker skin, can result from various causes and manifest in different types.
Here’s a brief overview:
Melasma, also known as Chloasma, is a common skin condition characterized by the development of dark and discoloured patches on the skin. It normally arises on the forehead, nose, cheeks, chin and upper lip. These patches are typically brown or greyish in colour and usually appear on areas of the face that are frequently exposed to the sun, such as the forehead, cheeks, nose, and upper lip.
Melasma is more prevalent in women, especially during pregnancy (known as “pregnancy mask”) or when taking hormonal contraceptives. Sun exposure is a significant factor in triggering or worsening melasma. While the exact cause is not fully understood, hormonal changes, genetics, and ultraviolet (UV) light exposure are believed to play key roles.
Though melasma doesn’t pose any health risks, it can be a cosmetic concern for some individuals. Prevention and management often involve sun protection, including the use of sunscreen and sun-protective clothing, along with certain topical treatments prescribed by dermatologists or Skilled skin therapists. In some cases, melasma may fade on its own, especially if related to hormonal changes, but it can be persistent and may require ongoing care to manage its appearance. We encourage you to book your Free Consultation at Beauty Aura Skin Clinic for proper diagnosis and personalized treatment plans.
Hyperpigmentation Diagnosed:
To figure out why your skin has dark spots, our skilled therapists at Beauty Aura Skin Clinic will conduct a comprehensive Skin Consultation & Analysis. During which they will discuss about your health and lifestyle. They’ll check if factors like your medical history contribute to the extra pigmentation. If you’ve had conditions like eczema or psoriasis, the dark patches might be from post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, not just sun exposure. Our expert therapists uses skin analysis to quickly assess your skin’s surface and understand what might be causing the pigmentation.
