Skin pigmentation problems can arise from a variety of factors.Here are four common causes of skin pigmentation problems.
1. Sun Exposure: Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun is one of the leading causes of skin pigmentation issues, such as sunspots, age spots, and melasma. UV rays can trigger the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color, leading to uneven pigmentation or dark patches.
2. Hormonal Changes: Hormonal fluctuations, particularly in women, can cause pigmentation disorders like melasma. Pregnancy, birth control pills, or hormone replacement therapy can increase melanin production, leading to dark patches on the face and other areas.
3. Inflammation or Skin Injury: Conditions like acne, eczema, or physical injuries to the skin can cause inflammation, which sometimes results in post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).
4. Certain Medications or Medical Conditions: Some medications, like chemotherapy drugs, antibiotics, or anti-seizure drugs, can cause pigmentation changes as a side effect.
