What are pigmentation spots?

Pigmentation spots, also known as hyperpigmentation, are discolored areas of the skin that occur when the body produces excess melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color. These spots can vary in size and often form on the face, hands, or other areas frequently exposed to the sun.

The main causes of pigmentation spots include prolonged exposure to UV rays, hormonal changes (such as during pregnancy), and the natural aging process of the skin. They can also appear as a result of skin inflammation or injuries, such as acne or scars.

To prevent and treat pigmentation spots, it is important to use sunscreen regularly. Treatments include depigmenting creams, chemical exfoliation, or laser therapies, depending on the severity of the spots.https://www.skinmed.ro/en/
