Why Does My Skin Have Pigmentation?

Why does my skin have pigmentation?

An excess production of Melanin causes hyperpigmentation. Melanin is a pigment that gives skin its colour and a single or combination of factors can change the production of melanin in your body. With an increase leading to pigmentation in the skin. 

 

Medication, chemotherapy and pregnancy can all effect Melanin production as well as a rare endocrine disease called Addison's disease. A common cause of hyperpigmentation in the skin is due to sun exposure or areas where there is increased rubbing for example the elbows and the knees. 

The best way to treat your pigmentation will depend on the cause. Taking preventative measures such as using SPF and following a good skincare routine with the right products can help reduce the appearance of pigmentation
