WHAT IS PIGMENTATION ?
Skin pigmentation refers to the natural color of your skin. It is determined by melanin, a pigment produced by cells called melanocytes. Melanin protects your skin from the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays. The more melanin you have, the darker your skin tone.
What Causes Pigmentation Issues?
Several factors can influence melanin production and lead to uneven pigmentation, such as:
-
Sun exposure: Overexposure to UV rays is a major culprit. The sun stimulates melanocyte activity, which can cause sunspots, freckles, and hyperpigmentation.
-
Hormonal fluctuations: Changes in hormone levels, especially during pregnancy, menstruation, or while taking birth control pills, can trigger hyperpigmentation.
-
Skin conditions: Certain skin conditions, like eczema or psoriasis, can cause areas of darkened skin.
-
Injuries: Injuries like cuts, burns, or insect bites can cause post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), which usually fades over time.
Taking Care of Pigmentation:
While some pigmentation issues are benign, some may cause you discomfort. The following advice can help you manage pigmentation:
Sun protection is essential! It's imperative to wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or greater every day to avoid hyperpigmentation and sun damage.
Skincare regimen: Seek for products with chemicals that can help lighten pigmentation, like retinoids, kojic acid, vitamin C, or licorice root extract.

Consult a dermatologist: A dermatologist might suggest customized treatment options such as chemical peels, laser therapy, or microdermabrasion if pigmentation is causing you worry.
