What is Pigmentation?
Pigmentation is the natural coloring of the skin, influenced by melanin, a pigment produced by skin cells known as melanocytes. When melanin production is disrupted, it can lead to uneven skin tone and dark patches on the skin, known as hyperpigmentation. This condition can be caused by multiple factors and often requires professional treatment to manage effectively.
Types of Pigmentation
Ojasvi Skin Clinic provides treatment for various pigmentation concerns, including:
- Melasma: Characterized by brown or gray-brown patches, melasma often appears on the face, commonly affecting areas like the cheeks, forehead, and upper lip. It is often triggered by hormonal fluctuations and exposure to sunlight.
- Sunspots (Lentigines): These are dark spots that appear on areas exposed to the sun, such as the face, hands, and arms, due to prolonged sun exposure.
- Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH): Occurs after skin trauma or inflammation, such as acne, where dark spots remain on the skin even after the injury has healed.
- Freckles: Small brown spots that are typically genetic and become more noticeable with sun exposure.
Causes of Pigmentation
According to Dr. Abhiraj Singh Thakur, pigmentation can have various underlying causes:
- Sun Exposure: UV rays from the sun stimulate melanin production, leading to dark spots and other pigmentation issues.
- Hormonal Changes: Hormonal fluctuations, such as those during pregnancy or due to birth control pills, can trigger pigmentation conditions like melasma.
- Genetics: Family history plays a significant role in the likelihood of developing certain types of pigmentation.
- Skin Trauma: Injuries, acne, and other skin conditions can leave marks that develop into post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
- Medications: Certain medications may increase sensitivity to the sun, leading to pigmentation issues.
